AMD and Intel announced that they will combine their x86 CPU optimization work for PyTorch in oneDNN, the open-source deep learning library governed by the Unified Acceleration Foundation (UXL), and have aligned on it as the default open-source library for x86 acceleration inside PyTorch. AMD is folding its ZenDNN optimizations into oneDNN and has joined
Supermicro announced the NVIDIA Vera CPU rack today, a 48U, 100 percent liquid-cooled rack that holds 256 NVIDIA Vera CPUs, 22,528 cores, and 45,056 threads and that Supermicro rates for up to 22,500 concurrent agent sandboxes. It is the newest member of the Data Center Building Block Solutions (DCBBS) portfolio, built to run beside the
VAST Data announced the Agent Sandbox Foundation Stack with NVIDIA at NVIDIA GTC Berlin, a reference architecture that runs NVIDIA NemoClaw agents inside NVIDIA OpenShell sandboxes on the VAST AI Operating System. OpenShell handles isolated execution and policy enforcement around each agent, and VAST handles the parts that have to outlive the sandbox: the agent’s
Brian hosted Bill Bollengier, Senior Director of Product Management at Micron, for a live podcast on LinkedIn on October 15, with Bill calling in from the floor of the OCP Global Summit. The subject was the Micron 6600 ION 245TB SSD and what a quarter petabyte per drive bay does to floor space, power budgets,
NVIDIA’s GTC Berlin announcements today span containerized Vera Rubin infrastructure, a 2.5x expansion of its substrate supply, and software for AI factory power management and agent security, along with telecom, autonomous vehicle, robotics, and healthcare programs. The headline number is a deployment target: NVIDIA says its new DSX POD reference design cuts an AI factory’s
VAST Data announced that DeepL is deploying the VAST AI Operating System as the data foundation for the research environments behind its written and real-time voice translation. Based on current deployment plans, DeepL expects roughly three times the storage capacity of the NVMe hardware it already runs, and it will use VAST’s SyncEngine to migrate
Dell Technologies expanded the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA today at NVIDIA GTC Berlin with a 48U PowerEdge M9882 rack holding 256 NVIDIA Vera CPUs for agentic workload execution, the PowerEdge XE9810 rack-scale inference system built on Groq 3 LPUs, an air-cooled two-socket Vera server, a 64GB Dell Pro Precision with GB10, and a set
Nutanix announced three collaborations today at NVIDIA GTC Berlin: a jointly engineered private inference system with Supermicro built on servers with eight NVIDIA B300 Blackwell Ultra GPUs per node, Day Zero support for NVIDIA Vera CPUs starting with NKP Bare Metal, and a multitenant stack with Netris that extends tenant isolation into the physical network.
CoreWeave launched Physical AI Launchables and the CoreWeave Zero Trust AI Framework today at NVIDIA GTC Berlin. Launchables is a catalog of tested, ready-to-run templates for robotics and autonomous vehicle tools, each started with one command, that pairs environments for NVIDIA Isaac Sim, CARLA, MuJoCo, NVIDIA AlpaSim, and NVIDIA Cosmos 3 with coding-agent skills tuned
HPE announced updates to HPE AI Factory with NVIDIA today at NVIDIA GTC Berlin, and most of the changes land in HPE Private Cloud AI. Developers, independent software vendors, and AI agents get governed access to the platform’s inference, models, and pipelines through production APIs and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, clusters can now mix
