DRACO GB200 NVL36 Rack-Scale AI System

Overview

The DRACO GB200 NVL36 Rack-Scale AI System is a turnkey, liquid-cooled single-rack (nvlink domain) AI training cluster delivering 6,912 GB HBM3e of aggregate HBM3e in a single unified NVLink domain. It arrives racked, cabled, cooled and validated — ready to train and serve the largest models on-premises, in INR, on a GST invoice.

Engineered for organisations building serious in-house AI capacity, it removes the integration risk of assembling a cluster yourself: RDP sizes the NVLink domain, fabric, storage, power and cooling as one validated system delivered as a single SKU with one warranty and one support contract.

Key highlights

• GB200 NVL36 · 6,912 GB HBM3e aggregate HBM3e — one unified NVLink memory domain for trillion-parameter training and serving.
• Unified NVLink domain, 400G InfiniBand spine — a single NVLink domain — all 36 Blackwell GPUs connected by NVLink/NVSwitch as one giant accelerator, with a 400G InfiniBand spine for scale-out.
• 18× NVIDIA Grace (ARM) coherently attached + Grace LPDDR5X coherent memory — host/CPU compute matched to 36 Blackwell GPUs.
• 240 TB NVMe NVMe + parallel-FS ready — high-throughput data and checkpoint storage across the system.
• Single-Rack (NVLink domain), liquid-cooled, turnkey — delivered racked, cabled, cooled and burned-in; one SKU, one warranty.
• On-prem data sovereignty — training data and weights stay in-house; DPDP-friendly, air-gappable.
• Make-in-India OEM — predictable INR pricing, GST tax invoice (HSN 8471), pan-India onsite support, GeM-procurable.
• Scale path — grow to multi-rack RDP AI SuperClusters on the same fabric.

AI workload fit (what it actually runs — honestly)

• Distributed training: data-, tensor- and pipeline-parallel training of Trillion-scale-class models across the 36 GPUs.
• Large-scale inference: serve many large models, or shard the very largest models across the NVLink domain for high throughput.
• RAG, multimodal & agentic at scale: production AI platforms on the system’s storage and fabric.
• Engineering note: in an NVL system the 36 GPUs share one NVLink domain — they behave as a single large accelerator, which is what makes training the very largest models efficient; Grace CPUs are coherently attached to the GPUs over NVLink-C2C. Across racks, a 400G InfiniBand spine carries collectives.

AI workload positioning

This sits at the cluster-scale train-and-serve stage: a complete, validated AI system rather than a single server. With 6,912 GB HBM3e of HBM3e in one NVLink domain, it is sized to sustain real distributed training and large-scale serving — the owned alternative to a cloud cluster where the meter never stops.

Industry use cases

• Government & sovereign AI — a national or departmental AI cluster on GeM-procurable infrastructure.
• BFSI — a private training cluster for large risk, fraud and language models.
• Healthcare & life sciences — large-scale model and imaging training, data in-house.
• Neocloud / AI providers — a validated NVLink-domain rack to build or expand a GPU cloud.
• Research & higher-ed — an institutional AI training cluster.
• Large enterprise & telecom — in-house foundation-model development.

Performance — and how to be sure

We don’t publish inflated peak numbers. The honest picture: 6,912 GB HBM3e of HBM3e across 36 Blackwell GPUs in one NVLink domain is sized for Trillion-scale-class distributed training and large-scale serving. Want certainty? Request a free benchmark of your model and dataset — including a scaling test — on this exact configuration before you buy; we’ll send back real tokens/sec, scaling efficiency and timings.

Series & upgrade path

• DRACO (flagship rack-scale tier) — this.
• Scale ladder: NVL36 → NVL72 unified domains; step up to GB200/GB300 NVL72 for the largest unified domains.
• When to step up: for multi-rack scale, move to RDP AI SuperClusters built from these systems — talk to an architect about the fabric and facility.

On-prem vs cloud — the TCO case

For a sustained training cluster, owning beats renting decisively: an always-on cloud cluster of this size is the dominant line in an AI budget, and on-prem removes egress fees and keeps data and weights in-house. RDP pricing is fixed in INR with a GST input-credit-eligible invoice — ask for a 3-year cluster TCO comparison.

Software & day-one readiness

Ships pre-integrated and validated: NVIDIA driver, CUDA, cuDNN, NCCL, the InfiniBand stack, Docker and NVIDIA Container Toolkit, with Slurm or Kubernetes, PyTorch and vLLM / Triton / TensorRT-LLM on Ubuntu LTS. Optional managed cluster operations, scheduler and observability setup.

Power, cooling & rack integration

A single-rack (nvlink domain) liquid-cooled system — plan facility power, CDU/manifold and water, and the InfiniBand spine. RDP scopes power, cooling and floor/rack requirements as part of the design. (Exact PSU/PDU ratings, BTU, flow and facility figures confirmed on the build sheet.) Full out-of-band management across the system.

Deployment, warranty & support

• Made to order, integrated, racked, cabled, cooled and burned-in in India; realistic lead time confirmed at quote.
• Delivered as one system: the NVL rack, fabric switches, cabling, PDUs, cooling integration, and the pre-installed cluster software stack.
• Onsite warranty + AMC with pan-India coverage, cluster-level support and an RMA/escalation path (exact term & response window confirmed at quote).
