Amazon and Nvidia Team Up to Boost AI Power

Collaboration Aims to Make AI Faster and More Efficient

Amazon and Nvidia are joining forces to revolutionize AI, combining Nvidia's cutting-edge technology with Amazon's custom chips and cloud services. This partnership is designed to help businesses train and deploy AI systems more rapidly.

New Connections and Advanced Hardware

At a recent tech event, the companies announced innovative ways to link Nvidia's graphics processors with Amazon's custom chips, including the upcoming Trainium4 and Graviton processors. This new connection, called NVLink Fusion, is part of a long-term strategy to build powerful AI platforms.

Amazon is also expanding access to Nvidia's latest GPUs. These GPUs power specialized AI clouds, enabling companies to run advanced AI tasks while ensuring data security and regulatory compliance. Nvidia believes this makes high-performance computing accessible to a broader audience.

Software Integration and AI Applications

Beyond hardware, Nvidia's software is now integrated into Amazon's services. For instance, Nvidia's open models are available on Amazon Bedrock for large-scale AI applications. Amazon is also the first cloud provider to offer serverless vector indexing with Nvidia GPUs, significantly speeding up the processing of unstructured data.

Robotics and Physical AI

The collaboration extends to physical AI and robotics. Nvidia's tools for robotics now run on Amazon's services, helping companies develop and test automation systems.

A Long-Term Partnership

Both companies view this partnership as a crucial part of their 15-year collaboration. Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, emphasized that this teamwork is essential for the "AI industrial revolution." Amazon's CEO, Matt Garman, added that it will help customers innovate faster.

Market Impact

Nvidia's stock has seen a significant rise this year, and Amazon has also gained. Both companies are focusing on AI to maintain their competitive edge. Amazon sells Nvidia GPUs to OpenAI, boosting both companies' revenues. Meanwhile, Amazon is developing its own AI chips to reduce training costs and influence the future of AI hardware.
