  4. TOP 5 HERE ARE THE “TOP FIVE” STORIES HIGHLIGHTING THIS WEEK’S ANNOUNCEMENTS

  5. TOP 5 1. World’s Largest Server Companies Announce NVIDIA Volta Systems Supercharged for AI 2. NVIDIA TensorRT 3 Dramatically Accelerates AI Inference for Hyperscale Data Centers 3. China’s Top Server-Builders Adopt NVIDIA AI Design for Cloud Computing 4. China’s Top Cloud Providers Adopt NVIDIA Volta GPUs to Supercharge Next-Gen AI Services 5. CUDA 9 Features Revealed: Volta, Cooperative Groups and More

  6. 1 WORLD’S LARGEST SERVER COMPANIES ANNOUNCE NVIDIA VOLTA SYSTEMS SUPERCHARGED FOR AI NVIDIA and its systems partners Dell EMC, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, IBM and Supermicro today unveiled more than 10 servers featuring NVIDIA® Volta architecture-based Tesla® V100 GPU accelerators -- the world's most advanced GPUs for AI and other compute-intensive workloads. NVIDIA V100 GPUs, with more than 120 teraflops of deep learning performance per GPU, are uniquely designed to deliver the computing performance required for AI deep learning training and inferencing, high performance computing, accelerated analytics and other demanding workloads. A single Volta GPU offers the equivalent performance of 100 CPUs, enabling data scientists, researchers and engineers to tackle challenges that were once impossible. PRESS RELEASE

  7. 2 NVIDIA TENSORRT 3 DRAMATICALLY ACCELERATES AI INFERENCE FOR HYPERSCALE DATA CENTERS NVIDIA today unveiled new NVIDIA® TensorRT™ 3 AI inference software that sharply boosts the performance and slashes the cost of inferencing from the cloud to edge devices, including self-driving cars and robots. The combination of TensorRT 3 with NVIDIA GPUs delivers ultra-fast and efficient inferencing across all frameworks for AI-enabled services -- such as image and speech recognition, natural language processing, visual search and personalized recommendations. TensorRT and NVIDIA Tesla® GPU accelerators are up to 40 times faster than CPUs(1) at one-tenth the cost of CPU-based solutions.(2) PRESS RELEASE WEBINAR

  8. 3 CHINA’S TOP SERVER- BUILDERS ADOPT NVIDIA AI DESIGN FOR CLOUD COMPUTING NVIDIA today announced that China's leading original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) -- including Huawei, Inspur and Lenovo -- are using the NVIDIA® HGX reference architecture to offer Volta architecture-based accelerated systems for hyperscale data centers. Through the NVIDIA HGX Partner Program, NVIDIA is providing each OEM with early access to the NVIDIA HGX reference architecture for data centers, NVIDIA GPU computing technologies, and design guidelines. HGX is the same data center design used in Microsoft's Project Olympus initiative, Facebook's Big Basin systems and NVIDIA DGX-1™ AI supercomputers. PRESS RELEASE

  9. 4 CHINA’S TOP CLOUD PROVIDERS ADOPT NVIDIA VOLTA GPUS TO SUPERCHARGE NEXT-GEN AI SERVICES NVIDIA today announced that China's technology giants are adopting the new NVIDIA® Volta GPU computing platform to accelerate AI for a broad range of enterprise and consumer applications. Speaking at the GPU Technology Conference in Beijing, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang announced that Alibaba Cloud, Baidu and Tencent are incorporating NVIDIA Tesla® V100 GPU accelerators into their data centers and cloud-service infrastructures. PRESS RELEASE

  10. 5 CUDA 9 FEATURES REVEALED: VOLTA, COOPERATIVE GROUPS AND MORE At the 2017 GPU Technology Conference NVIDIA announced CUDA 9, the latest version of CUDA’s powerful parallel computing platform and programming model. CUDA 9 is now available as a free download. Benefits include: Support for the Volta GPU architecture, including the new Tesla V100 accelerator; Cooperative Groups, a new programming model for managing groups of communicating threads; A new API (preview feature) for programming Tensor Core matrix multiply and accumulate operations on Tesla V100. • • • READ MORE
