Supermicro Finally Mints Some Coin Peddling Rackscale Iron

With new generations of GPUs and other kinds of AI accelerators either shipping or soon to start shipping and new CPUs also soon to be available from Intel and AMD, and sales already at a historical high level at Supermicro, you might not be expecting for sales to bust through a whole new higher ceiling starting in the next quarter. …

How To Make More Money Renting A GPU Than Nvidia Makes Selling It

It is not a coincidence that the companies that got the most “Hopper” H100 allocations from Nvidia in 2023 were also the hyperscalers and cloud builders, who in many cases wear both hats and who are as interested in renting out their GPU capacity for others to build AI models as they are in innovating in the development of large language models. …

What Happens When Hyperscalers And Clouds Buy Most Servers And Storage?

We have a long-standing joke that dates from the early 2000s, when the hyperscalers – there were not yet cloud builders as we now know them – started having hundreds of millions of users and millions of servers and storage arrays to run applications for them at the same time there was the beginnings of consolidation among the OEMs who created the servers and storage used by nearly all enterprises, including dot-com startups. …

Los Alamos Pushes The Memory Wall With “Venado” Supercomputer

Today is the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the “Venado” supercomputer, which was hinted at back in April 2021 when Nvidia announced its plans for its first datacenter-class Arm server CPU and which was talked about in some detail – but not really enough to suit our taste for speeds and feeds – back in May 2022 by the folks at Los Alamos National Laboratory where Venado is situated. …

With MTIA v2 Chip, Meta Can Do AI Inference, But Not Training

If you control your code base and you have only a handful of applications that run at massive scale – what some have called hyperscale – then you, too, can win the Chip Jackpot like Meta Platforms and a few dozen companies and governments in the world have. …

Google Joins The Homegrown Arm Server CPU Club

If you are wondering why Intel chief executive officer Pat Gelsinger has been working so hard to get the company’s foundry business not only back on track but utterly transformed into a merchant foundry that, by 2030 or so can take away some business from archrival Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, the reason is simple. …
