Nvidia Expands Arm Support From Edge To Cloud
Nvidia is expanding its support for the Arm ecosystem for everything from edge to cloud computing ahead of the company’s planned acquisition of the British chip designer.
The company’s expanded support includes porting its Nvidia AI and RTX engines to Arm; creating platforms with Arm partners for HPC, cloud, edge and PC; and “complementing Arm partners with GPU, networking, storage and security technologies,” according to Nvidia’s Huang.
“Today, these capabilities are available only on x86. With this initiative, Arm platforms will also be leading edge at accelerated and AI computing,” he said.
This expanded support means that tools and software libraries like Nvidia Rapids and Nvidia HPC SDK will work with Arm-based processors. The company’s new BlueField DPUs will also support Arm through its Neoverse server platforms.
This builds on previous work Nvidia has done to support Arm-based processors with a new reference architecture and ecosystem for GPU-accelerated Arm servers.
