NVIDIA Israel-1 AI Supercomputer (Israel)

NVIDIA Israel-1 is a hyperscale generative AI supercomputer housed in NVIDIA's Israeli data center and built with Dell Technologies. NVIDIA describes Israel-1 as a Spectrum-X reference design using Dell PowerEdge XE9680 servers based on the HGX H100 eight-GPU platform, BlueField-3 DPUs, and Spectrum-4 switches. Dell says the full system is designed around 256 PowerEdge XE9680 AI servers and 2,048 NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs. DCD and Calcalist report that the first phase became available in November 2023 for NVIDIA R&D teams and selected partners, with four exaflops of AI performance and 65 petaflops of scientific computing in phase one, and an eventual design target of eight exaflops AI and 130 petaflops HPC. ADCI keeps public facility capacity unknown because these sources report compute performance rather than site megawatts.
