Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Chooses NVIDIA BlueField Data Center Acceleration Platform
21 Marzo 2023 - 4:32PM
GTC -- NVIDIA today announced that
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) has selected the NVIDIA
BlueField-3® DPU as the latest addition to its networking stack,
offering OCI customers a powerful new option for offloading data
center tasks from CPUs.
BlueField-3 is NVIDIA’s third-generation data processing unit
that enables enterprises to build software-defined,
hardware-accelerated IT infrastructures from cloud to data center
to edge. It improves performance, efficiency and security in data
centers by offloading, accelerating and isolating infrastructure
workloads, thus freeing expensive CPU cores to run business
applications.
OCI offers a wide range of cloud infrastructure and platform
services to its customers to build and run applications and
services in the cloud or on premises. By utilizing BlueField-3, OCI
is extending its long-established approach of offloading data
center infrastructure tasks from CPUs.
“The age of AI demands cloud data center infrastructures to
support extraordinary computing requirements,” said Jensen Huang,
founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “NVIDIA’s BlueField-3 DPU enables this
advance, transforming traditional cloud computing environments into
accelerated, energy-efficient and secure infrastructure to process
the demanding workloads of generative AI.”
“Oracle Cloud Infrastructure offers enterprise customers nearly
unparalleled accessibility to AI and scientific computing
infrastructure with the power to transform industries,” said Clay
Magouyrk, executive vice president of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
“NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs are a key component of our strategy to
provide state-of-the-art, sustainable cloud infrastructure with
extreme performance.”
BlueField-3 Boosts Data Center Performance, Efficiency
and SecurityBlueField-3 is the foundation of the data
center control plane that delivers cloud and AI services. Tests
show power reductions of up to 24% on servers using NVIDIA
BlueField DPUs compared to servers without DPUs.
The DPUs support Ethernet and InfiniBand connectivity at up to
400 gigabits per second and provide 4x more compute power, up to 4x
faster crypto acceleration, 2x faster storage processing and 4x
more memory bandwidth compared to the previous generation of
BlueField.
BlueField also delivers full backward-compatibility through the
NVIDIA DOCA™ software framework. DOCA equips developers with
advanced, zero-trust security capabilities, including the ability
to create metered cloud services that control resource access,
validate each application and user, isolate potentially compromised
machines and help protect data from breaches and theft.
Watch Huang discuss the NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPU in his GTC
keynote.
