About SambaNova Systems

Customers turn to SambaNova to quickly deploy state-of-the-art AI capabilities to meet the demands of the AI-enabled world. SambaNova’s purpose-built enterprise-scale AI platform is the technology backbone for the next generation of AI computing. SambaNova Systems enable customers to unlock the valuable business insights trapped in their data. The Company’s flagship offering, Dataflow-as-a-Service, overcomes the limitations of legacy technology to power the large complex foundation models that enable customers to discover new services and revenue streams, and boost operational efficiency. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, SambaNova Systems was founded in 2017 by industry luminaries, and hardware and software design experts from Sun/Oracle and Stanford University.

Key Facts

SambaNova Systems delivers the industry’s only comprehensive enterprise software, hardware, and solutions platform to run Artificial Intelligence (AI), deep learning, and foundation models.

SambaNova offers two products: Dataflow-as-a-Service and DataScale.

SambaNova is powering leading organizations to leverage cutting edge deep learning delivered through SambaNova Dataflow-as-a-Service to gain a competitive edge in weeks.

SambaNova’s Dataflow-as-a-Service delivers the industry’s most powerful integrated AI software-defined hardware platform, complete with out-of-the-box pre-trained deep learning models, enabling enterprises to accelerate and scale their AI capabilities 22x faster with an AI infrastructure purpose-built for the next generation of advanced AI and deep learning.

Each model comes pre-trained, reducing the need for heavy investment and time from an organization’s data science team, and accelerating time to deployment from months or years to just weeks. Each model can also be fine-tuned to a particular industry or an organization’s specific application.

Dataflow-as-a-Service easily runs the most sophisticated and demanding large language models and processes true-resolution images as well as highly detailed 3D sensor data.

Dataflow-as-a-Service overcomes the inherent limitations of GPU systems which struggle to handle even a small fraction of state-of-the-art deep learning language models and are unable to process an image the size of a picture taken with a smartphone, without significant and complex technical parallelization efforts.

Dataflow-as-a-Service provides organizations with a suite of solutions with flexible subscription options for natural language processing, high-resolution computer vision, and recommendation systems.

The suite offering includes: (1) A comprehensive selection of large language models leveraging text and speech data for various tasks, such as name entity recognition, sentiment analysis, document classification, semantic search, question answering, text generation, speech-to-text, and intent classification; (2) A comprehensive selection of vision models supporting a collection of tasks including image classification, object detection, and 2D and 3D segmentation to support true resolution images up to 50k x 50k; (3) Recommendation models supporting large embeddings with unmatched accuracy and performance.

SambaNova also offers various interfaces and functional blocks, flexible deployment options, and fully managed services.

SambaNova’s DataScale is a fully integrated hardware-software system, powered by a dataflow architecture, that enables organizations to train and deploy the most demanding deep learning, foundation model, and AI for Science workloads and achieve world record performance with the largest and most challenging models.

DataScale’s benefits include: (1) Unprecedented performance for the most demanding applications; (2) Ability to run the largest models and process the largest data; (3) Ease of use. Users interact with common frameworks with no need to use proprietary programming languages; (4) Automatically extracts, optimizes, and executes the optimal dataflow graph of models on SambaNova’s Reconfigurable Dataflow Units; (5) Seamless scalability across systems with consistent rack-rack bandwidth and latency; (6) Complete hardware and software system for training and inference.

SambaNova’s opportunity lies in selling software-based AI systems to enterprises that are keen to adopt more AI into their business but might lack the talent and other resources to do so if it requires running and maintaining large systems.

In September 2023, SambaNova Systems announced a revolutionary new chip, the SN40L. The SN40L will power SambaNova’s full stack large language model (LLM) platform, the SambaNova Suite, with its revolutionary new design: on the inside it offers both dense and sparse compute, and includes both large and fast memory, making it a truly “intelligent chip”. SambaNova’s SN40L, manufactured by TSMC, can serve a 5 trillion parameter model, with 256k+ sequence length possible on a single system node. This is only possible with an integrated stack, and is a vast improvement on previous state-of-the-art chips, enabling higher quality models, with faster inference and training, at a lower total cost of ownership.
