Netweb Launches 'Make in India' Supercomputers
Netweb Technologies has launched a new line of 'Make in India' supercomputing systems. The lineup includes the palm-sized Tyrone Camarero Spark, capable of 1 PetaFLOP at 240W for running 200-billion-parameter models, and GB200-based racks designed for training trillion-parameter models.
- These supercomputers are the result of a collaboration with NVIDIA, utilizing their latest Grace Blackwell architecture. The Tyrone Camarero Spark is built on the NVIDIA DGX Spark platform with a GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, while the larger racks use the GB200 NVL4 platform. - The rack-scale Tyrone Camarero GB200 systems are liquid-cooled and designed for intensive workloads. A single rack can integrate 20 systems, comprising a total of 40 NVIDIA Grace CPUs and 80 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. - This launch aligns with India's broader National Supercomputing Mission (NSM), an initiative started in 2015 to create a nationwide grid of over 70 high-performance computing facilities. The NSM is jointly steered by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). - A key driver for this development is the growing demand for sovereign AI capabilities, which is supported by government programs like the IndiaAI Mission, aimed at expanding the nation's own compute capacity. - The 'Make in India' initiative in electronics is supported by government policies such as the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, which provides a 4% to 6% incentive on incremental sales of goods manufactured domestically. - Sanjay Lodha, the CEO of Netweb Technologies, called the launch "a proud moment for the 'Make in India' mission" and highlighted that it creates a completely new customer segment in collaboration with Nvidia. - Following the announcement, Netweb Technologies' stock price surged over 16% in two trading sessions, indicating a strong positive reception from the market.
