Scalability of OCI Supercluster image, description below The image shows boxes that represent compute and storage, connected by lines for cluster networking. On the far left, there are four boxes of compute and two for storage for the smallest cluster with 16,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs. To its right there are 8 boxes of compute and 4 boxes of storage for 32,000 NVIDIA A100 GPUs in a cluster. Next, there are 16 boxes of compute and 8 boxes of storage for 64,000 NVIDIA H200 GPUs. Finally, to the far right, there are 32 boxes of compute and 16 boxes of storage for 128,000 NVIDIA Blackwell and Grace Blackwell GPUs. This shows scalability of OCI Supercluster increasing by 8X from the smallest 16,000 GPU configuration on the far left to the largest 128,000 GPU configuration on the far right.
