read the original abstract

ABCI 3.0 is the latest version of the ABCI, a large-scale open AI infrastructure that AIST has been operating since August 2018 and will be fully operational in January 2025. ABCI 3.0 consists of computing servers equipped with 6128 of the NVIDIA H200 GPUs and an all-flash storage system. Its peak performance is 6.22 exaflops in half precision and 3.0 exaflops in single precision, which is 7 to 13 times faster than the previous system, ABCI 2.0. It also more than doubles both storage capacity and theoretical read/write performance. ABCI 3.0 is expected to accelerate research and development, evaluation, and workforce development of cutting-edge AI technologies, with a particular focus on generative AI.
