NVIDIA Metropolis

NVIDIA Metropolis is a collection of models, libraries, and blueprints that provides everything you need to build, deploy, and scale video analytics AI agents and applications, from the edge to the cloud. You can now easily transform raw video and sensor data from real-world environments into real-time, actionable insights. This helps your organization understand what’s happening in your physical spaces and respond intelligently, while delivering exceptional scale, throughput, cost-effectiveness, and faster time to production.

How Metropolis Works

Metropolis offers a cohesive, end-to-end stack of software building blocks that handle everything from video ingestion to insight generation to advanced agentic AI-powered analytics. These components can be deployed consistently across the whole compute spectrum—on the edge, in on-prem servers, or in the cloud—so the same applications can run close to where data is generated or centrally at scale.
