Eos
Also known as NVIDIA Eos
Operated by NVIDIA at NVIDIA (undisclosed US site) .
Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1263 of 1345 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 56 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

Figures are as last publicly reported for the configuration described below, not a live measurement. Where a system was upgraded in place, the post-upgrade configuration is shown and the earlier one appears in the timeline.
What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.

AI datacenter metrics
Figures beyond an accelerator count, each with who stated it. What can and cannot be compared across AI datacenters.
| Metric | Value | As of | Basis | Note | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Accelerators | 4,608 accelerators | 2024-02 | Operator stated | 576 DGX H100 systems with 4,608 H100 GPUs, as stated in the NVIDIA Eos blog post | blogs.nvidia.com |
The read
Selene's successor on H100, and the second of the two NVIDIA-operated calibration points in this dataset. Between Eos, Selene and Microsoft's Eagle, the ranked world contains three measured samples of the architecture that the entire unranked commercial buildout is made of.

Source check
We fetched this system's own citations and recorded whether each page actually mentions it. This is a corroboration signal, not a fact check, and it is published so you can see how well the sourcing holds up rather than take it on trust.
| Cited source | Result | Found on the page |
|---|---|---|
| blogs.nvidia.com | names system and part | NVIDIA H100 SXM5, NVIDIA InfiniBand NDR (Quantum-2) |
| servethehome.com | names system and part | NVIDIA H100 SXM5, NVIDIA InfiniBand NDR (Quantum-2) |
Checked 2026-10-13 by pnpm verify. Re-run it and the table changes with the web.
