You’re deploying a model on a system. It starts up, prompts are getting responses. Now the hard question: Is this fast? Your instincts might lead you to send curl commands, hand-roll an asyncio script, or vibe code yet another one-off load generator. All of these paths have the same problem: single-process performance limits, Python’s GIL capping concurrency, or numbers measured against a…

AI agents are moving from cloud data centers to vehicles, robots, and other edge devices. Unlike a chatbot that answers a single prompt, an agent works through a sequence of steps. It selects tools, evaluates their results, and continues reasoning within an increasingly long conversation. This workflow places new demands on edge inference. The model must generate tokens quickly…

How can a 30B-parameter model activate only 3B parameters per token, and still use the capacity of the larger model? Nemotron 3.5 Lightning illustrates the answer: It uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture that selects only a subset of its parameters for each token. There are two dominant model architectures: Dense model and MoE. How a model organizes its parameters matters as much as…

For operators of large-scale AI factories, maximizing continuous output is essential for productivity. In massive-scale AI training, every GPU in the cluster must synchronize gradients across thousands of collective operations per second. Similarly, during inference, unplanned downtime directly reduces the total volume of requests served, strictly limiting revenue generation.

Federated learning (FL) projects often begin with a straightforward setup: one server, a few clients, and one dataset at each site. As those projects grow, the challenge shifts from running an algorithm to operating shared infrastructure. GPUs must be allocated when jobs need them, multiple research studies must remain separated, and every participating organization must retain control of its own…

Deploying a large language model is only the first step toward production-ready serving. Production teams also need to serve as many concurrent users as possible on available GPU infrastructure while preserving the interactivity that keeps applications responsive. That tradeoff matters even more for agentic AI workloads, where prompts can be long, context can be reused across steps…

Biomolecular structure prediction is now often run at proteome scale, where the goal is to move an entire worklist through the pipeline efficiently. NVIDIA BioNeMo Inference Runtime (BioIR) helps accelerate supported biomolecular structure-prediction models on NVIDIA GPUs while keeping the familiar PyTorch workflow. It uses optimized kernels and, where applicable, CUDA Graphs to speed model…

NVIDIA has one of the largest and most complex supply chains in the world, and its performance is measured from wafer-out to first token. The interval is in two parts. Time-to-rack runs from silicon leaving the fab to an assembled system arriving on a data center floor. Time-to-token covers everything thereafter: power, cooling, networking, and the software stack that makes the infrastructure…

In September 2026, NVIDIA announced it is leaning into native GPU programming in Rust. CUDA C++ and CUDA Python are mature, enterprise-grade toolchains, and NVIDIA will be growing and maturing CUDA Rust into 2027 and beyond The systems layer of AI spans inference engines, serving infrastructure, drivers, and agent runtimes, and it churns constantly as models and techniques change.

Running reasoning and agentic AI at the edge has been harder than it needs to be. Until recently, models capable of multi-step reasoning were too large to run locally on edge hardware. Developers building agents have had to route inference through a data center, adding network dependency, increasing costs, and exposing data that may need to stay on device. That constraint is lifting.

Modern AI platforms are no longer a single application behind one login screen. A user may start in a central portal, open a governed dataset, launch a notebook where that data resides, and invoke an assistant that calls services in another cluster. The workflow feels unified, but identity crosses control-plane and data-plane boundaries at every step. That is where conventional single sign-on…

The surge in AI adoption is transforming everything from chatbots to content generation. Still, a common pain point remains: How can organizations confidently size GPU resources for inference workloads and optimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?

For years, a Python developer who needed a GPU had two realistic choices: Learn NVIDIA CUDA C++ well enough to write an extension, set up a build toolchain, and maintain bindings back to Python, which most people never did; or move up the stack and let someone else’s library do it, namely PyTorch, CuPy, or RAPIDS. The second option is why the Python GPU ecosystem thrives. But it has limits.

The massive growth of generative AI has fundamentally altered data center design. As distributed model training scales to span hundreds of thousands of GPUs, the scale-out network connecting these nodes has emerged as a first-order performance bottleneck.

AI agents have expanded inference from single-turn interactions into multi-step workflows that reason, invoke tools, coordinate subagents, and carry growing context from one turn to the next. The scale of this shift is now visible in raw consumption: across 100 trillion tokens of real-world usage, OpenRouter’s State of AI report found that average prompt tokens per request grew roughly fourfold…

Recommender systems (RecSys) are one of the most ubiquitous machine learning problems in the consumer internet industry yet notoriously difficult to train and serve at scale. The advent of LLMs has inspired a shift from the traditional embedding-similarity-based objective to a generative one, where the goal is to predict the next action or item in a large catalog given a sequence of user histories.

Atomistic simulation requires three things: knowledge of the science, compute-efficient implementation of simulations, and accessible interfaces to the simulation stack.
