Nervana Systems Named A 'Cool Vendor' By Gartner

"The Nervana team is developing a full-stack deep learning platform to enable organizations to use deep learning to tackle previously unsolvable problems. We believe our inclusion in the Cool Vendor report by Gartner validates our mission to make scalable artificial intelligence widely accessible and to enable disruptive new applications across a range of industries," said Naveen Rao, co-founder and CEO of Nervana. In February, Nervana launched Nervana Cloud, a full-stack hosted platform for deep learning. Based on neon, Nervana's open source deep learning framework, Nervana Cloud helps businesses develop and deploy high-accuracy deep learning solutions at a fraction of the cost of building their own infrastructure and data science teams. Utilizing the Nervana Engine, an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) that is custom-designed and optimized for deep learning, Nervana Cloud has been optimized down to the silicon to handle the most complex machine learning training at scale.
