AMD has finished its acquisition of Xilinx, which ended up costing close to $49 billion instead of the original $35 billion projected when the deal was announced in October 2020 thanks to the rise of AMD’s shares over the past year and a half. …
Only two quarters ago, AMD’s datacenter business – meaning sales of Epyc CPUs plus Instinct GPU accelerators – broke through $1 billion. …
The modern GPU compute engine is a microcosm of the high performance computing datacenter at large. …
If you want to know how and why AMD motors have been chosen for so many of the pre-exascale and exascale HPC and AI systems, despite the dominance of Intel in CPUs and the dominance of Nvidia in GPUs, you need look no further for an answer than the new “Aldebaran” Instinct MI200 GPU accelerator from AMD and its Infinity Fabric 3.0 coherent interconnect that is being also added to selected Epyc CPUs. …
Here is a moment that Lisa Su, the chief executive officer who has lead the team that brought AMD back into the datacenter with the vigor the market needs, has been waiting six years for. …
If you don’t measure something, you can’t manage it. And if you don’t set ambitious goals, then you can’t attain them. …
This is how a competitive chip market is supposed to look, and this is how a competitive chip maker recovers from faults, competes against a seemingly unassailable foe, and then rides up the revenue and income curves to be able to invest in the future and profit from the present. …
What Intel calls “cloud digestion” as the cause of the massive pullback in spending in its Data Center Group is looking more and more like a case of “Epyc indigestion” for Intel, not for the hyperscalers and cloud builders. …
Server buyers have longer memories and perhaps deeper disappointment of AMD’s exit from the X86 server processor business than consumers who buy PCs, and a manufacturing constrained Intel has clearly sacrificed some Core PC chip market share to maintain some Xeon SP server market share over the past two years. …
