Nvidia is significantly expanding its AI infrastructure initiatives by introducing NVLink Fusion, a technology that allows for the integration of non-Nvidia CPUs and AI accelerators with Nvidia's GPUs. This strategic move aims to provide customers with more flexible and customizable AI system configurations, broadening Nvidia's reach in the rapidly growing data center market. Key partnerships are already in place with companies like Qualcomm, Fujitsu, Marvell, and MediaTek, as well as design software firms Cadence and Synopsys, to foster a robust and open ecosystem. This approach allows Nvidia to remain central to the future of AI infrastructure, even when systems incorporate chips from other vendors.
Nvidia is also solidifying its presence in Taiwan, establishing a new office complex near Taipei that will serve as its overseas headquarters. The company is collaborating with Foxconn to build an "AI factory" in Taiwan, which will utilize 10,000 Nvidia Blackwell GPUs. This facility is intended to bolster Taiwan's AI infrastructure and support local organizations in adopting AI technologies across various sectors. TSMC, Nvidia's primary chip supplier, plans to leverage this supercomputer for research and development, aiming to develop the next generation of AI chips.
Furthermore, Nvidia is working with Taiwan's National Center for High-Performance Computing (NCHC) to develop a new AI supercomputer. This system will feature over 1,700 GPUs, GB200 NVL72 rack-scale systems, and an HGX B300 system based on the Blackwell Ultra platform, all connected via Quantum InfiniBand networking. Expected to launch later this year, the supercomputer promises an eightfold performance increase over its predecessor for AI workloads, providing researchers with enhanced capabilities to advance their projects. Academic institutions, government agencies, and small businesses in Taiwan will be able to apply for access to the supercomputer to accelerate their AI initiatives.
