About the HPE Cray XD670 AI Server
Generative AI training and LLM inference at scale demand a unified GPU architecture, and the HPE Cray XD670 AI Server delivers that through an 8x NVIDIA H100 SXM5 configuration with NVLink 4.0 and NVSwitch full all-to-all GPU mesh connectivity. This 2U rack-mount server (part number R8S80A) packs 640GB of total HBM3 GPU memory—80GB per GPU—enabling organizations to run large language models and deep learning workloads without constant data shuffling between nodes. Backed by dual Intel Xeon Scalable 4th Gen Sapphire Rapids processors, up to 2TB of DDR5 RDIMM system memory, and PCIe Gen 5 internal NVMe SSD support, the XD670 balances compute density with memory bandwidth for both training and inference pipelines. Direct liquid cooling—available as warm water rear-door or direct-to-chip configurations—keeps eight H100 GPUs operating efficiently within tight data center constraints, while redundant titanium-level power supplies ensure reliability in mission-critical deployments.
AI infrastructure teams, HPC procurement specialists, and enterprise data center architects are the primary buyers of this system because it collapses what traditionally required multiple single-GPU nodes into one compact form factor. The HPE Cray XD Series ecosystem includes the HPE Cray Programming Environment and HPE Machine Learning Development Environment (MLDE), reducing time-to-productivity for teams running generative AI, HPC simulation, and deep learning research. Dual high-speed network interfaces supporting NVIDIA ConnectX-7 or HPE Slingshot 11 HPC fabric integrate seamlessly into existing cluster topologies, while iLO 6 management and HPE Insight Cluster Cluster Management Utility support keep operational overhead minimal across large deployments. Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and Ubuntu ensures compatibility with standard enterprise IT stacks.
