DigitalOcean customers are putting NVIDIA HGX H100s to the test with complex use cases. WindBorne Systems, which operates the largest balloon constellation in the world while also developing state-of-the-art deep learning models for real-time forecasting, relies on NVIDIA HGX H100s on DigitalOcean for training. Combining NVIDIA’s state-of-technology with DigitalOcean’s resources, they found that DigitalOcean’s infrastructure allowed them to train models on H100s faster and more cost-effectively than other cloud options.

“We have two terabytes of RAM on each of the nodes, which we leverage to train larger models. DigitalOcean’s ability to provide us with all of the resources that we need, which we often can’t find in other places, has been really helpful.”

Anuj Shetty, Machine Learning Engineer at WindBorne Systems

Simple, powerful GPU Droplets

Like all DigitalOcean products, GPU Droplets are designed for simplicity. You can launch them in just a few clicks, freeing you from complex infrastructure management.

These GPU Droplets also work with our new Inference-Optimized Image , a pre-configured image that does the work for you. This feature provides an instant production-grade environment with built-in optimizations like CUDA and FlashAttention, so you can go from Droplet launch to live inference in no time.

Security and compliance are also top priorities. All GPU Droplets are HIPAA-eligible and SOC 2 compliant, giving you peace of mind. You can use these powerful Droplets alongside our managed Kubernetes service and our DigitalOcean Gradient AI TM Platform to build and scale comprehensive, AI-driven applications.

Get started today

You can spin up NVIDIA HGX H100 for as low as $2.99/GPU/hour on-demand or $1.99 GPU/hour with a multi-month commitment.

We also offer a full range of NVIDIA GPU Droplet options across our data centers at affordable prices, including NVIDIA HGX H200s , NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada Generation and NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada Generation, and NVIDIA L40S . Our AMD offering also continues to grow - we recently added AMD Instinct™ MI325X GPUs on top of already existing AMD Instinct™ MI300X GPUs .

Need more information? Register for our webinar on October 15 to learn more about these GPUs and how to scale your AI workloads with DigitalOcean from start to finish.
