Hydra Host Supports El Salvador’s Deployment of NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra B300 GPUs for Sovereign AI Initiative


San Salvador, El Salvador | November 19, 2025


Hydra Host announced the successful delivery and engineering support of El Salvador’s new systems powered by NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra B300 GPUs, marking a major step in the country’s expansion of sovereign AI infrastructure. The deployment follows the sovereign NVIDIA HGX B300 infrastructure secured in June when President Nayib Bukele met with Hydra Host CEO and cofounder Aaron Ginn, a moment covered in Diario La Página and amplified across the Salvadoran press.


The arrival of the NVIDIA HGX B300 systems wereas reported in detail by Diario El Mundo in its article, El Salvador recibe chips NVIDIA ‘extremadamente potentes’ para supercomputación de IA”.  The outlet highlighted the technical importance of the hardware and reiterated that the acquisition stemmed from the June engagement with Hydra Host leadership.


The delivered platforms integrate the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture NVIDIA HGX B300 systems are integrated within Supermicro high density servers. They are designed to accelerate large-scale training, long-context inference, and advanced transformer-based workloads. With next-generation tensor computation capabilities, high-bandwidth interconnect performance, and notable improvements in compute throughput per watt, the systems create a strong foundation for the National AI Lab as it begins work on generative AI and GPU-accelerated research. El Salvador intends to power this infrastructure with geothermal energy, maintaining the country’s long-standing emphasis on sustainable operations.

Hydra Host Bare Metal Engineer, Bradley Shadowens, oversaw the full intake and validation process on site. His responsibilities included system integrity checks, thermal and power assessments, and readiness verification before the cluster’s placement. Although he appeared without credit in several photographs shared publicly, his engineering work was essential to the successful handoff.


Coverage extended beyond traditional print outlets. Diario La Huella detailed the technical significance of the deployment in its article, El Salvador incorpora los chips NVIDIA B300 para impulsar su avance en inteligencia artificial. English-language coverage echoed these developments. El Salvador in English published a detailed piece titled First in Latin America: El Salvador Uses Geothermal Energy to Power NVIDIA’s B300 AI Chips, reaffirming the country’s positioning as a regional leader in AI readiness and citing Hydra Host’s involvement in the process.


“Our team is proud to support El Salvador as it builds out its sovereign AI infrastructure,” said Aaron Ginn, CEO and cofounder of Hydra Host. “Compute is now a strategic resource for nations. El Salvador recognized this early and acted decisively. Their leadership deserves real credit for moving first.”


Hydra Host will continue providing engineering support as the systems progress into full production workloads.
