SambaNova Systems

“The speed for agentic workflows is unmatched. We are running complex, multi-step financial reasoning agents that require near-zero latency, and the SN50 handles them instantly.”

“We chose SambaNova for the 'Composition of Experts' (CoE) architecture. We can switch between hundreds of specialized models in microseconds without the usual memory overhead.”

“Data sovereignty was the dealbreaker. Their on-premises, air-gapped systems let us run the world's largest open-source models with total privacy and high performance.”

“The benchmarks are real. We tested the SN40L against H100 clusters for Llama 3-405B inference; SambaNova achieved significantly higher throughput at lower power.”

“The 'SambaStudio' software makes fine-tuning and deployment seamless. We don't need a team of 50 engineers to manage our custom LLM infrastructure anymore.”

“Their collaboration with Intel is a masterstroke. Running SambaNova hardware on Xeon-based infrastructure has made procurement much simpler for our IT team.”

“It’s a fast-paced R&D environment. We are focused on 'Dataflow' rather than just brute-force compute, which makes our chips fundamentally more efficient for AI.”

“SN50 is engineered for real-world economics. It’s no longer about who has the biggest model, but who can run agents at a cost that is actually profitable.”

“Performance is incredible for large-context windows. However, the ecosystem is still more 'closed' than NVIDIA's CUDA, requiring a bit more effort for custom kernels.”
