Alongside its Groq 3 LPX news at Hot Chips 2026, NVIDIA announced that SpaceXAI will deploy NVIDIA Vera CPUs to accelerate its next generation of agentic AI applications. The company also plans to expand the infrastructure behind Grok on the Vera Rubin platform as it scales toward gigawatts of capacity, and to extend that architecture
NVIDIA announced the production release of the NVIDIA Groq 3 LPX, a dedicated interactive inference accelerator built to complement the Vera Rubin NVL72 platform. As enterprise AI workloads shift from raw model pre-training toward real-time reasoning and autonomous agent orchestration, infrastructure requirements are changing. Agentic workflows require iterative, multi-step execution where latency during token generation
At Hot Chips 2026, Intel presented architectural details for three upcoming silicon platforms targeted at enterprise agentic AI workloads spanning data center, inference, and edge tiers. The lineup consists of the next-generation Xeon processor, codenamed Diamond Rapids, for workload orchestration; the Crescent Island data center GPU, dedicated to high-density inference; and the Wildcat Lake SoC,
The MSI XpertStation WS300 is built on NVIDIA’s newest DGX Station architecture, the most capable generation yet, placing a full GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra node beside your desk. The headline number is 20 petaFLOPS of FP4 compute, delivered by a single Blackwell Ultra GPU tied to a 72-core Grace CPU over a 900GB/s NVLink-C2C link.
At the Hot Chips conference, IBM revealed the industry’s first dual-architecture mainframe processor, engineered for future generations of IBM Z and LinuxONE enterprise systems. Developed through the joint collaboration between IBM and Arm in April 2026, the processor will allow organizations to run Arm-native Linux operating environments alongside traditional z/OS and Linux on IBM Z
Gartner has published its 2026 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Storage Platforms, and the headline is continuity at the top, with one clear standout. The same six vendors hold the Leaders quadrant as last year: Everpure, Huawei, HPE, NetApp, Dell Technologies, and IBM. Within that group, Everpure sits highest in ability to execute and furthest in
The Dell Pro Precision 5 16s AMD brings the Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 475 into Dell’s larger 16-inch mobile workstation chassis, pairing 12 cores and 24 threads with Radeon 890M graphics and a 60 TOPS NPU. Our review unit adds 64GB of LPDDR5x memory, a 1 TB PCIe Gen4 SSD, and a 2560 x
Across several hardware generations, memory and networking vendors have identified different choke points in high-performance computing clusters. Memory manufacturers focused on in-package memory bandwidth, while network fabric providers addressed inter-chassis and cross-rack throughput. Today, those two perspectives have converged on the exact same bottleneck: the bandwidth wall that restricts data movement between distributed compute nodes
Sandisk has introduced two SSD families designed specifically for network-attached storage, covering both SATA-based systems and higher-performance NVMe NAS deployments. The Sandisk NAS 600 SATA SSD offers capacities up to 4TB and endurance up to 2,500 TBW, while the Sandisk NAS 800 NVMe SSD, a PCIe 5.0 drive, scales to 7.68TB with sequential read speeds
Cloudera has introduced Cloudera Anywhere Cloud, a hybrid data and AI platform engineered to build, deploy, and scale production-grade workloads across public clouds, sovereign environments, and private on-premises infrastructure. The platform can function as a standalone deployment or integrate directly into existing enterprise data lakes. It provides a centralized control plane that delivers automated management,
