"Built in collaboration with our ODM partner QCT (Quanta Cloud Technology), the current Big Basin system features eight NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPU accelerators. These GPUs are connected using NVIDIA NVLink to form an eight-GPU hybrid cube mesh — similar to the architecture used by NVIDIA's DGX-1 system. This setup, combined with the NVIDIA Deep Learning SDK, utilizes this new architecture and interconnects to improve deep learning training across all GPUs.

Compared with Big Sur, Big Basin will bring us much better gain on performance per watt, benefiting from single-precision floating-point arithmetic per GPU increasing from 7 teraflops to 10.6 teraflops. Half-precision will also be introduced with this new architecture to further improve throughput."

So I just run the setup CD, right?

Assuming your question is serious: Yes, essentially, but you're going to have to temporarily connect some peripherals if you don't intend to pop in a pre-installed image on a drive. And of course, depending on what OS you intend to run on it you might end up with driver hassles, your best bet is likely a reasonably modern linux distro.

Facebook PXE boot to Anaconda, use Chef to provision the host and then ultimately use their own scheduler to execute a workload.
