About us
Welcome to SambaNova: Revolutionizing AI Capacity At SambaNova, we're empowering developers, enterprises, governments, and data centers to unlock their full AI potential. Our full-stack infrastructure, from chips to models, enables lightning-fast performance, low power consumption, and high-efficiency computing. Our Mission To give every developer, enterprise, government and data center absolute sovereignty over their own data, models and AI infrastructure – to future-proof the AI workloads that will power and scale tomorrow. Our Technology We give our customers the optionality to experience SambaNova through the cloud or on-premise. Samba Cloud delivers the fastest inferences on the largest open source models like Llama 4 and DeepSeek. Developers can get started building in minutes with our OpenAI compatible APIs. All customers start on the developer tier and when they need more capacity can scale into our enterprise tier. SambaStack is our on-premise offering which includes the system, the platform, and foundation models. These components combine into a powerful technology stack that delivers unparalleled performance, ease of use, accuracy, data privacy, and the ability to power every use case across the world's largest organizations. SambaManaged is a modular and ready-to-deploy AI cloud designed to deliver unmatched efficiency for data centers and cloud service providers. This solution allows organizations to quickly deploy advanced AI inference services—without the need for costly infrastructure upgrades or specialized expertise—in as little as 90 days. At the heart of SambaNova innovation is the Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit (RDU). Purpose built for AI workloads, the RDU takes advantage of a dataflow architecture and a three-tiered memory design. The three tiers of memory enable the platform to run hundreds of models on a single node and to switch between them in microseconds. In 2023, SambaNova released its 4th generation RDU chip, the SN40L.

Europe is taking a major leap toward sovereign AI. INFERCOM has selected SambaNova to power Europe’s first sovereign Inference-as-a-Service platform, built to meet the continent’s growing demand for secure, energy-efficient, and fully compliant AI infrastructure. By combining SambaNova’s full-stack AI platform with INFERCOM’s European-first deployment strategy, organizations can now run advanced large language models faster, more efficiently, and with complete data sovereignty—all within European borders.

How do we take cutting-edge AI from powerful to practical? Rodrigo Liang tackled this question at TEDAI San Francisco with Steven Levy, Nikhil Pradhan, Ayse Coskun, and Thomas Sohmers to dig into AI progress. Their conversation focused on the crucial tech making AI faster and more accessible: ⚙️ Model Compression: Doing more with less. ⚙️ Hardware Acceleration: Building the specialized chips that power the next leap. ⚙️ Distributed Training: Scaling up without slowing down. This isn't just theoretical, it's about building the efficient foundation for AI's future.

We’re setting a new global standard for efficient, sovereign AI. 🚀 From Australia to Europe to the UK, our energy-efficient AI infrastructure is powering the next wave of national AI innovation—solving the data center power crisis, cutting energy costs, and ensuring that intelligence stays local, secure, and sustainable. “At a time when AI is pushing both policy and power grids to their limits, SambaNova is delivering a new kind of AI cloud—one that’s private, locally governed, and radically more energy efficient,” said Rodrigo Liang, CEO and co-founder of SambaNova. With partners like SouthernCross AI, Argyll Data Development, and INFERCOM, we’re building sovereign clouds that run lighter, faster, and greener—powered by our Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit (RDU) technology. https://lnkd.in/gPXtd-D8

We're still buzzing from the energy in the room and Rodrigo Liang's TEDAI San Francisco talk on how a smarter foundation is key to accelerating AI for everyone was a must see. Can't wait to see what's next. Let's go, Session 2! 💥
That’s a wrap on Session 1 at TEDAI San Francisco 2025! We looked under the hood of intelligence — where logic meets architecture, and computation becomes the engine driving the next wave of AI. Llion Jones, Co-Author of “Attention Is All You Need” and CTO of Sakana AI, took the stage to reflect on how AI architecture continues to evolve, and what the next chapter of intelligence might hold. Eric Zelikman, Co-Author of Quiet-STaR and former researcher at xAI, discussed how reasoning and reflection could make AI more adaptable, intuitive, and human-like in the way it learns and responds. Tudor Achim, CEO and Co-Founder of Harmonic, showed how mathematics can bring structure and certainty to a field often defined by abstraction. Rodrigo Liang, Co-Founder and CEO of SambaNova, outlined how smarter infrastructure can fuel faster innovation across every field. Ayse Coskun, Chief Scientist at Emerald AI and Professor at Boston University, examined what happens when innovation meets responsibility, and how the next generation of computing can work with the grid, not against it. Vlad Tenev, CEO and President of Robinhood Markets, reflected on his own journey from mathematician to fintech innovator — and shared how bold ideas can redefine careers, challenge established systems, and shape the future of the economy and intelligence. Incredible start to #TEDAISF2025 — and we’re just getting started. Session 2, here we come. 💥
