Qualcomm Cloud AI 100, AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processor, and Gigabyte server solutions breaks the Peta Operations Per Second barrier for AI Inferencing
There is no doubt that AI is the driving force for next-generation consumer experiences. Virtually every experience on a mobile device somehow involves AI, whether it’s scrolling through your favorite social apps or online shopping that offers recommendations based on tens of thousands of AI inferences on its own. Now what happens when these platforms are serving millions of users on a given day? That really requires racks upon racks of powerful servers that can deliver the AI inferencing performance required to keep these platforms humming along.
Today, Qualcomm Technologies is enabling a powerful server rack that can meet these high-performance requirements by pairing with the latest AMD EPYC 7003 Series processors and Gigabyte’s latest G292-Z43 server solutions. This amalgamation of hardware expertise offers incredible performance and raises the bar for the modern data center. Qualcomm Technologies’ cutting-edge Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 fits perfectly into Gigabyte’s server system and is capable of driving the incredible AI use cases in the field of high-speed data analysis, personalized recommendations, smart cities, 5G communications, and more.
The Gigabyte G292-Z43 server supports two AMD EPYC 7003 Series processors for its processing power along with multiple Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 cards for computationally intensive applications supporting AI inferencing workloads. The Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 Inference Accelerator boasts up to 400 TOPS with breakthrough performance/Watt and that’s just with one single Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 card. Now imagine a Gigabyte server can host up to 16 Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 inferencing cards per server that, cumulatively, can deliver up to 6.4 Peta OPS (400 TOPS x 16, one Peta OPS is 1000 TOPS). This marks the first time a Qualcomm Technologies AI-based solution breaking the PetaOPs barrier. And it gets even better: A server rack can host 19 or more of these server units, which easily exceeds 100 Peta OPS. That is a lot of Qualcomm Technologies AI muscle. See the infographic below on how it is being configured. (…) Weiterlesen »

Azure and AMD announce landmark in confidential computing evolution
Mark Russinovich Chief Technology Officer and Technical Fellow, Microsoft Azure
The pandemic has accelerated digital transformation globally and the scalability and security advantages offered by Microsoft Azure have helped many customers move forward. One key tenet we have in Azure is that your data is your data.
In Azure, we take your data security seriously and have built numerous controls around data at rest and data at flight. As a founding member of the Confidential Computing Consortium, we are also an innovator in confidential computing which extends those protections to data running on the processor itself. For more than 3 years financial services, governments, health care providers, and even messaging companies have been using Azure confidential computing to unlock new scenarios like multi-party machine learning and move their more sensitive applications to the cloud.
Today, I am announcing that we are further broadening the confidential computing options available to Azure customers through our technology partnership with AMD, specifically by being the first major cloud provider to offer confidential virtual machines on the new AMD EPYC™ 7003 series processors. This new approach complements existing Azure confidential computing solutions such as confidential containers for Azure Kubernetes Service and opens the possibility to create new confidential applications without requiring code modifications which in turn substantially simplifies the process of creating confidential applications.
