AMD Watch posted an update
AMD says its sixth-generation EPYC processors will power Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s Compute E7 instances, while AMD Pensando technology will underpin Oracle Acceleron networking for AMD compute and accelerator instances.
Why it mattersThat gives cloud customers a clearer picture of the AMD hardware in Oracle’s infrastructure plans: processors for compute, plus networking technology for compute and accelerator systems. The announcement comes amid Oracle’s wider push to offer customers more AI hardware. For now, AMD’s specific contribution is the useful detail, not a promise of a new service customers can already order.
Discuss: When choosing cloud infrastructure for AI workloads, do you put more weight on the accelerator itself or on the networking and compute around it?
