Enterprise Software, Built on Open Source#
Most components of NVIDIA AI Enterprise are available as open-source tools, but they have been enhanced to support running mission-critical AI in production.
Validated Compatibility & SLA Support: The dependency matrix between Kubernetes versions, OS kernels, and GPU drivers is notoriously fragile. NVIDIA AI Enterprise software follows certified, validated compatibility matrices and comes with SLA-backed support, ensuring that a simple OS patch does not break your entire AI pipeline.
Maintained and updated: NVIDIA AI Enterprise software is scanned and patched for vulnerabilities before being released. Different software branches have different lifecycles, and NVIDIA issues security and maintenance releases throughout the lifecycle of the software artifact.
Regulatory Compliance and Security: NVIDIA AI Enterprise infrastructure software and the Production Branch of the application development software has been designated as “Government Ready” for highly-regulated industry and public sector environments. This software is built on STIG-hardened containers using FIPS-compliant libraries, undergoes a rigorous secure development lifecycle, and is maintained for an extended lifetime with monthly security and maintenance patches. Most importantly, API stability is guaranteed throughout its lifetime, allowing organizations to confidently build production applications based on this software with both security and stability.
