Operational story trace

3.5 Lightning

Current stateAvailable · SageMaker JumpStartstatus changed Aug 17

Latest change

TheSequence's Aug 19 frontier-model rundown groups Nemotron 3.5 Lightning with DeepSeek V4-Pro and GLM-5.3, two days after AWS added the 30B-MoE (3B-active) build to SageMaker JumpStart.

Earlier contextThe story so far

NVIDIA opened its Nemotron 3 family further on Aug 11 with 3.5 Lightning and a companion NeMo Switchyard release, aimed at agentic workloads rather than chatbots. By Aug 17 the 30B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model (3B active) had its first managed-cloud distribution channel: AWS SageMaker JumpStart.

What to watch — open questions

  • What does NeMo Switchyard actually do — the Aug 11 announcement pairs it with Nemotron 3.5 Lightning but doesn't explain its role.
  • Will Nemotron 3.5 Lightning reach deployment surfaces beyond SageMaker JumpStart, such as NVIDIA NIM, Hugging Face, or other clouds?
