Introducing GPU Droplets accelerated by NVIDIA HGX H200

We’re expanding our AI/ML offerings with the introduction of new DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI GPU Droplets, virtual machines accelerated by NVIDIA HGX H200. This is a significant step forward in our mission to provide the simplest, most scalable cloud for builders everywhere.

For developers working on the cutting edge of AI, the right hardware can make all the difference. NVIDIA HGX H200 is built to handle the most demanding tasks in generative AI and high-performance computing (HPC). We’re making it easier and more affordable for you to tap into this power without the complexity and high costs often seen with other providers.

NVIDIA H200s on DigitalOcean: Deploy complex inference workloads at competitive pricing

NVIDIA H200 is a state-of-the-art GPU that brings some serious advantages to the table:

• Iterate and deploy faster: H200 GPU offers up to 2x faster inference speeds than the NVIDIA H100 on large language models like Llama 2 70B.

• Access larger memory capacity: First GPU to feature HBM3e memory, delivering a substantial increase in memory bandwidth and capacity for better inference performance. The H200 GPU features Its 141 GB of memory which is 76% higher than H100 and its memory bandwidth is 43% higher than the H100.

• Run cost-effective workloads: At only $3.44/GPU/hr on-demand with DigitalOcean.

Simple, Scalable, Reliable

Like all DigitalOcean products, these new GPU Droplets are designed for simplicity. You can launch them in just a few clicks, freeing you from complex infrastructure management so you can focus on what you do best: building.

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 new Gradient Platform to build and scale comprehensive, AI-driven applications.

Customers are experiencing the power of H200s on DigitalOcean

“With our ultra-low latency connection to DigitalOcean paired with the compute of NVIDIA H200s, we run our entire voice AI stack—from real-time transcription to in-call agent reasoning and lifelike TTS,” said David Casem, CEO of Telnyx. “The result is crystal-clear, responsive conversations that help our customers deliver world-class voice experiences.”

Expanding our GPU lineup

This launch builds on our recent efforts to provide you with a full range of NVIDIA GPU Droplet options, including H100, RTX 4000 & 6000 Ada Generation, and L40S. We’re also planning to offer next generation GPUs from NVIDIA soon, so stay tuned for more.
