  • NVIDIA AI-On-5G Computing Platform Adopted by Leading Service and Network Infrastructure Providers
    NVIDIA AI-on-5G Computing Platform Adopted by Leading Service and Network Infrastructure Providers Fujitsu, Google Cloud, Mavenir, Radisys and Wind River to Deliver Solutions for Smart Hospitals, Factories, Warehouses and Stores GTC -- NVIDIA today announced it is teaming with Fujitsu, Google Cloud, Mavenir, Radisys and Wind River to develop solutions for NVIDIA’s AI-on-5G platform, which will speed the creation of smart cities and factories, advanced hospitals and intelligent stores. Enterprises, mobile network operators and cloud service providers that deploy the platform will be able to handle both 5G and edge AI computing in a single, converged platform. The AI-on-5G platform leverages the NVIDIA Aerial™ software development kit with the NVIDIA BlueField®-2 A100 — a converged card that combines GPUs and DPUs including NVIDIA’s “5T for 5G” solution. This creates high-performance 5G RAN and AI applications in an optimal platform to manage precision manufacturing robots, automated guided vehicles, drones, wireless cameras, self-checkout aisles and hundreds of other transformational projects. “In this era of continuous, accelerated computing, network operators are looking to take advantage of the security, low latency and ability to connect hundreds of devices on one node to deliver the widest range of services in ways that are cost-effective, flexible and efficient,” said Ronnie Vasishta, senior vice president of Telecom at NVIDIA. “With the support of key players in the 5G industry, we’re delivering on the promise of AI everywhere.” NVIDIA and several collaborators in this new AI-on-5G ecosystem are members of the O-RAN Alliance, which is developing standards for more intelligent, open, virtualized and fully interoperable mobile networks.

  • NVIDIA and Tech Leaders Team to Build GPU-Accelerated Arm Servers for New Era of Diverse HPC Architectures
    NVIDIA and Tech Leaders Team to Build GPU-Accelerated Arm Servers for New Era of Diverse HPC Architectures Arm, Ampere, Cray, Fujitsu, HPE, Marvell to Build NVIDIA GPU-Accelerated Servers for Hyperscale-Cloud to Edge, Simulation to AI, High-Performance Storage to Exascale Supercomputing SC19 -- NVIDIA today introduced a reference design platform that enables companies to quickly build GPU-accelerated Arm®-based servers, driving a new era of high performance computing for a growing range of applications in science and industry. Announced by NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang at the SC19 supercomputing conference, the reference design platform -- consisting of hardware and software building blocks -- responds to growing demand in the HPC community to harness a broader range of CPU architectures. It allows supercomputing centers, hyperscale-cloud operators and enterprises to combine the advantage of NVIDIA's accelerated computing platform with the latest Arm-based server platforms. To build the reference platform, NVIDIA is teaming with Arm and its ecosystem partners -- including Ampere, Fujitsu and Marvell -- to ensure NVIDIA GPUs can work seamlessly with Arm-based processors. The reference platform also benefits from strong collaboration with Cray, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, and HPE, two early providers of Arm-based servers. Additionally, a wide range of HPC software companies have used NVIDIA CUDA-X™ libraries to build GPU-enabled management and monitoring tools that run on Arm-based servers. “There is a renaissance in high performance computing,'' Huang said. “Breakthroughs in machine learning and AI are redefining scientific methods and enabling exciting opportunities for new architectures. Bringing NVIDIA GPUs to Arm opens the floodgates for innovators to create systems for growing new applications from hyperscale-cloud to exascale supercomputing and beyond.'' Rene Haas, president of the IP Products Group at Arm, said: “Arm is working with ecosystem partners to deliver unprecedented performance and efficiency for exascale-class Arm-based SoCs.
