Earning NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud validation, Vultr demonstrates operational excellence and sophisticated scaling architecture that significantly boosts throughput and efficiency across key AI training benchmarks

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.: Vultr, the world’s largest privately-held cloud infrastructure company, announced today that it is among the first to become an NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud, achieving the performance standards of the NVIDIA reference designs on NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. Vultr’s Exemplar Cloud achievement reinforces its position as the company building the infrastructure for the next generation of AI-native applications.

Vultr’s participation in the NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud Initiative entailed a comprehensive examination of its performance on NVIDIA accelerated computing. Tests were run on a 512-node NVIDIA HGX B200 cluster, using benchmarking recipes for AI training workloads, using 11 models including NVIDIA Nemotron-H, Nemotron-4 15B and 340B; Grok-1 314B; Llama 3.1 8B, 70B and 405B; Qwen3 30B and 235B and DeepSeek-v3-TorchTitan 671B.

As organizations and developers across the globe expand their strategic AI initiatives, they require sound guarantees that their cloud providers will reliably support real-world AI workloads. However, architecture varies across providers, creating variance in performance and total cost of ownership (TCO) that can complicate the process of choosing a vendor and, by extension, delay innovation. The NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud initiative was launched to provide rigorous, standardized benchmarking across cloud platforms, ensuring transparency and reproducibility of results, ultimately making it easier for AI innovators to choose the right cloud provider for their needs.

“Our NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud validation confirms Vultr’s ability to deliver industry-leading performance for today’s most demanding AI workloads,” said J.J. Kardwell, CEO of Vultr. “This recognition reflects the strength of our infrastructure design and our commitment to providing enterprises with reliable, production-ready AI compute.”

The Vultr Cloud GPU platform unlocks the raw power of NVIDIA AI infrastructure for cloud-native AI at an affordable price point. Beyond GPUs, Vultr offers a full practical stack that includes Kubernetes enablement, GPU-enabled images, and container repositories and model workflows to accelerate AI development from prototype to production.
