Gemma models: Versions, specs, GPU requirements & hosting

Google Gemma separates full-size general models from edge-oriented variants and keeps model sizes as siblings within a generation.

Overview and history

Gemma is an official Google model family represented here through independently verified release, checkpoint, license, runtime and hardware evidence. Google Gemma separates full-size general models from edge-oriented variants and keeps model sizes as siblings within a generation. Current public releases are grouped by the General, Edge tracks so sibling sizes and specialist branches are not presented as false chronological generations.

FusionPointAI currently tracks 23 certified public Gemma releases. The catalogue preserves release dates and evaluates Current, Recent, Previous and Legacy status within each model track rather than by database insertion order.

Multimodal variants

Architecture and model range

The verified public range spans 5.1B to 31.3B total parameters and context windows up to 262,144 tokens. Each release states whether it is dense or mixture-of-experts and records active parameters separately when the official source publishes them.

Deployment ecosystem

Choose a specific Gemma release and certified checkpoint before sizing hardware. FusionPointAI rejects unknown runtime configurations, calculates resident memory from total model weights, then distinguishes globally compatible GPUs from currently rentable inventory.

Validate the exact checkpoint license, runtime version, precision kernel, context length, concurrency and multi-GPU topology. Active MoE parameters affect compute, but resident model memory continues to use total stored weights.

Common use cases

On-device prototypes
Private assistants
Vision-language tasks

License overview

Licenses are certified per release, not inferred from the provider. Review the release page before commercial deployment because terms can differ between generations and variants.

Commercial-use status is a source-backed catalogue classification, not legal advice. Follow the linked official license and attribution requirements.
