NVIDIA B200 on Koyeb
Overview
The NVIDIA B200 Tensor Core GPU is NVIDIA’s next-generation Blackwell-architecture accelerator designed for the most demanding AI, large language model (LLM), and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads. Unlike single-GPU products, the B200 is a data center-class GPU optimized for extreme compute density and scale-out performance, providing unmatched memory and bandwidth for large-scale model training and inference.
Key characteristics of the B200 include:
- Massive GPU memory (≈180–192 GB HBM3e) with very high memory bandwidth (~8 TB/s), enabling large models and datasets to be processed efficiently.
- Next-generation Blackwell Tensor Cores with support for low-precision formats (including FP8 and FP4), accelerating AI training and inference.
- Designed for SXM data center form factors and high-speed interconnects (e.g., NVLink) to scale across multi-GPU clusters.
- Ideal for integration into large systems (such as DGX B200) that aggregate multiple B200 GPUs for extreme AI performance.
The B200 pushes performance beyond prior generations (including H100 and H200) by combining a large memory footprint with ultra-high bandwidth and next-generation tensor compute density, making it a future-proof choice for cutting-edge AI infrastructure.
Best-Suited Workloads
The B200 excels in large-scale, high-throughput AI and HPC workloads — especially those that benefit from very large memory and bandwidth:
-
LLM Training at Scale
Train massive transformer models (100B+ parameters) with reduced need for model sharding or complex parallelism, thanks to large HBM3e capacity and high throughput. -
High-Performance LLM Inference
Serve inference for very large models or multi-tenant endpoints with high throughput and low latency, especially when paired with optimized precision formats (e.g., FP8/FP4). -
Generative AI at Enterprise Scale
Power generative text, image, or multimodal AI services that require sustained throughput and large working memory. -
Large-Scale AI Clusters and Distributed Training
When deployed in multi-GPU clusters with high-speed NVLink and network fabrics, B200 excels in horizontal scaling for training and inference. -
Memory-Intensive HPC Workloads
Accelerate scientific simulations, fluid dynamics, optimization, and data analytics that benefit from large memory and high interconnect bandwidth.
