DDN announced the launch of DDN Enterprise AI HyperPOD, built on Supermicro, accelerated by NVIDIA, a turnkey AI data platform engineered to redefine how enterprises and sovereign organizations deploy and scale artificial intelligence.
Designed for industries including healthcare and life sciences, manufacturing, financial services, automotive, neo clouds, and sovereign AI, the new platform based on the NVIDIA AI Data Platform reference design, integrates DDN’s Infinia Data Intelligence Platform, Supermicro’s AI-optimized hardware featuring NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs and NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs, and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software including NVIDIA NIM and NVIDIA NeMo Retriever microservices, to deliver record-setting efficiency, density, and scalability for inferencing at every level—from entry to exascale.
How the Turnkey Solution Impacts Business
- Turnkey Deployment: Ready on day one with modular configurations, allowing enterprises to deploy and run AI Inference in minutes instead of months.
- Maximum ROI: DDN HyperPOD accelerates the Enterprise Inference pipeline and offers significant advantages over alternative solutions. DDN HyperPOD accelerates data ingestion by 22x and the KV Cache stage of Inference by 18x
- Sustainability at Scale: 10x power savings and industry-leading density—2PB in 1U—make AI both transformative and ESG-compliant.
- Hybrid and Future-Proof: Built to seamlessly integrate with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Google Managed Lustre, and future NVIDIA technologies, ensuring organizations can innovate today and adapt tomorrow.
“AI success isn’t about how many GPUs you buy, it’s about how well you use them,” said Sven Oehme, CTO at DDN. “Enterprises are tired of wasted capacity and spiraling costs. With DDN Enterprise AI HyperPOD, built on Supermicro Edition, accelerated by NVIDIA, we’re delivering a turnkey platform that keeps GPUs 95% busy, transforms infrastructure into outcomes, and scales from edge deployments to sovereign AI factories. This is about giving CEOs and CIOs the confidence to invest in AI with measurable business returns.”
“Organizations need a new class of AI-native storage to gain real-time insights from unstructured data,” said Justin Boitano, vice president of enterprise AI products at NVIDIA. “The DDN Enterprise AI HyperPOD, which integrates the full NVIDIA AI stack on Supermicro systems, gives enterprises a proven, secure, and high-performance foundation to harness the full potential of AI data at scale.”
“DDN’s Enterprise AI HyperPOD based on NVIDIA’s AI Data Platform architecture and using Supermicro Hyper servers and NVIDIA-based Supermicro GPU servers, makes deploying an enterprise AI solution a turnkey experience when purchased through Supermicro,” said Vik Malyala, President & Managing Director EMEA SVP, Technology & AI, Supermicro. “Supermicro’s integration of all of the technologies and software, validation, and support enables customers to receive a fully unified solution for their AI workflow.”
By aligning compute, networking, and data intelligence, DDN Enterprise AI HyperPOD, Supermicro Edition accelerated by NVIDIA addresses one of the most critical challenges in enterprise AI: wasted infrastructure. Where enterprises today can lose up to 60% of compute capacity to inefficiencies, Infinia sustains near-perfect GPU utilization, transforming infrastructure investment into scalable outcomes.
DDN Enterprise AI HyperPOD, built on Supermicro, accelerated by NVIDIA, is available immediately through Supermicro as turnkey packages.
