• Google highlighted how AMD EPYC processors power a wide range of instances for AI, high performance, general purpose and confidential computing, including their AI Hypercomputer, a supercomputing architecture designed to maximize AI ROI. Google also announced EPYC 9005 Series-based VMs will be available in early
• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure shared how it leverages AMD EPYC CPUs, AMD Instinct accelerators and Pensando DPUs to deliver fast, energy efficient compute and networking infrastructure for customers like Uber, Red Bull Powertrains, PayPal and Fireworks OCI announced the new E6 compute platform powered by EPYC 9005 processors.
• Databricks highlighted how its models and workflows run seamlessly on AMD Instinct and ROCm and disclosed that their testing shows the large memory capacity and compute capabilities of AMD Instinct MI300X GPUs help deliver an over 50% increase in performance on Llama and Databricks proprietary models.
• Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella highlighted Microsoft’s longstanding collaboration and co-innovation with AMD across its product offerings and infrastructure, with MI300X delivering strong performance on Microsoft Azure and GPT workloads. Nadella and Su also discussed the companies’ deep partnership on the AMD Instinct roadmap and how Microsoft is planning to leverage future generations of AMD Instinct accelerators including MI350 series and beyond to deliver leadership performance- per-dollar-per-watt for AI applications.
• Meta detailed how AMD EPYC CPUs and AMD Instinct accelerators power its compute infrastructure across AI deployments and services, with MI300X serving all live traffic on Llama 405B. Meta is also partnering with AMD to optimize AI performance from silicon, systems, and networking to software and applications.
• Leading OEMs Dell, HPE, Lenovo and Supermicro are expanding on their highly performant, energy efficient AMD EPYC processor-based lineups with new platforms designed to modernize data centers for the AI era.

Expanding an Open AI Ecosystem

AMD continues to invest in the open AI ecosystem and expand the AMD ROCm open source software stack with new features, tools, optimizations and support to help developers extract the ultimate performance from AMD Instinct accelerators and deliver out-of-the-box support for today’s leading AI models. Leaders from Essential AI, Fireworks AI, Luma AI and Reka AI discussed how they are optimizing models across AMD hardware and software.

AMD also hosted a developer event joined by technical leaders from across the AI developer ecosystem, including Microsoft, OpenAI, Meta, Cohere, xAI and more. Luminary presentations hosted by the inventors of popular AI programming languages, models and frameworks critical to the AI transformation taking place, such as Triton, TensorFlow, vLLM and Paged Attention, FastChat and more, shared how developers are unlocking AI performance optimizations through vendor agnostic programming languages, accelerating models on AMD Instinct accelerators, and highlighted the ease of use porting to ROCm software and how the ecosystem is benefiting from an open-source approach.
