Sizing Up AWS “Blackwell” GPU Systems Against Prior GPUs And Trainiums

This week, Amazon Web Services announced the availability of its first UltraServer pre-configured supercomputers based on Nvidia’s “Grace” CG100 CPUs and its “Blackwell” B200 GPUs in what is called a GB200 NVL72 shared GPU memory configuration.

Will Companies Build Or Buy Their GenAI Models?

One of the biggest questions that enterprises, governments, academic institutions, and HPC centers the world over are going to have to answer very soon – if they have not made the decision already – is if they are going to train their own AI models and the inference software stacks that make them useful or just buy them from third parties and get to work integrating AI with their applications a lot faster.

Some Thoughts On The Future “Doudna” NERSC-10 Supercomputer

Right or wrong, we still believe that we live in a world where traditional HPC simulation and modeling at high precision matters more than mashing up the sum total of human knowledge and mixing with the digital exhaust of our lives to create a globe-spanning automation that will leave us all with very little to do and a commensurate amount of wealth and power to show for it.

Intel Starts Re-Engineering Its Executive Ranks

It has been two and a half months since new chief executive officer Lip-Bu Tan gave the keynote at Intel’s Vision 2025 event, and the company has been relatively quiet by its own standards over the past several decades as Tan gets the lay of the land and tries to plot out the course of the company to rebuild its foundry business and reorient and focus its chip design and sales business.

AMD Plots Interception Course With Nvidia GPU And System Roadmaps

To a certain extent, Nvidia and AMD are not really selling GPU compute capacity as much as they are reselling just enough HBM memory capacity and bandwidth to barely balance out the HBM memory they can get their hands on, thereby justifying the ever-embiggening amount of compute their GPU complexes get overstuffed with.

HPE Uses AI To Drive The Business, Which Is Increasingly AI

Hewlett Packard Enterprise is going through yet another restructuring to reduce costs, something we have seen a lot of in the past two decades and a half decades since it acquired Compaq to become a volume server peddler as well as high end system supplier for enterprises.
