Partnership enables enterprises across core sectors such as energy, public sector, and telecommunications to achieve substantial speed improvements and cost savings
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Vultr, the world’s largest privately held cloud computing platform, today announced a partnership with GPU-accelerated analytics platform provider HEAVY.AI. Integrating Vultr’s global NVIDIA GPU cloud infrastructure into its operations, HEAVY.AI can interactively query and visualize massive datasets, enabling faster, more efficient decision-making for customers across diverse sectors.
“Partnering with Vultr has allowed us to leverage their highly performant, global NVIDIA GPU cloud infrastructure to provide our customers with better access to unparalleled speed and efficiency,” said Jon Kondo, CEO of HEAVY.AI. “This integration ensures that our platform continues to deliver the rapid insights and cost savings that are critical for our customers’ success.”
Now, thanks to Vultr’s advanced GPU infrastructure, HEAVY.AI can deliver the best performance at an affordable price. The NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper™ Superchip joins NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPUs and Vultr Bare Metal instances to form a powerful trio that drives faster insights via HEAVY.AI’s platform. With the NVIDIA GH200 running on Vultr Cloud, HEAVY.AI can deliver 5X or greater price performance when compared to 8XA100 instances, completing industry-standard analytic SQL benchmarks such as TPC-H100 in less than 4.5 seconds, and executing 11 of the 22 queries in less than 100 milliseconds.
“Vultr is one of the first cloud providers to offer the revolutionary NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper Superchip,” said Todd Mostak, Co-Founder and CTO of HEAVY.AI. “By tapping into the immense GPU compute and CPU-GPU bandwidth that is unique to the NVIDIA GH200, we now can offer our customers even greater performance and scale while significantly reducing costs, empowering businesses to derive insights faster and more efficiently than ever before.”
Building on its mission to democratize access to big data analytics, HEAVY.AI offers a comprehensive software suite that allows organizations to query, analyze, and visualize complex datasets, with a particular focus on location and time series data. With performance that is often orders of magnitude faster than CPU-based solutions, HEAVY.AI provides analysts, data scientists, data engineers, and geospatial professionals across industries with a complete view of their data, helping them understand the “what, when, and where” with unparalleled clarity.
Through its collaborations with NVIDIA and now Vultr, HEAVY.AI has optimized its platform for the latest NVIDIA hardware to provide best-in-class performance, providing significant advantages to industries that rely on fast data processing. Specifically:
“As enterprises across sectors look to train and scale their models, they are looking for industry and use case-specific solutions to help them accelerate growth and innovation,” said Kevin Cochrane, CMO of Vultr. “Our partnership with HEAVY.AI is yet another example of Vultr being committed to unlocking the next frontier of GPU-accelerated analytics for some of the most data-intensive workloads across key sectors.”
