AMD Brings New AI and Compute Capabilities to Microsoft Customers
15 Novembro 2023 - 1:01PM
Today at Microsoft Ignite, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) and Microsoft featured
how AMD products, including the upcoming AMD Instinct™ MI300X
accelerator, AMD EPYC™ CPUs and AMD Ryzen™ CPUs with AI engines,
are enabling new services and compute capabilities across cloud and
generative AI, Confidential Computing, Cloud Computing and smarter,
more intelligent PCs.
“AMD is fostering AI everywhere – from the cloud, to the
enterprise and end point devices – all powered by our CPUs, GPUs,
accelerators and AI engines,” said Vamsi Boppana, Senior Vice
President, AI, AMD. “Together with Microsoft and a rapidly growing
ecosystem of software and hardware partners, AMD is accelerating
innovation to bring the benefits of AI to a broad portfolio of
compute engines, with expanding software capabilities.”
Powering New AI Capabilities in Azure AMD Instinct
MI300XMicrosoft’s new Azure ND MI300x v5 Virtual Machine
(VM) series optimized for AI workloads features the AMD Instinct
MI300X, making Azure the first cloud to use the new accelerator.
The new VMs are part of Microsoft’s diverse infrastructure
supporting AI innovation for enterprises everywhere giving
customers more choice in efficiency and scalability.
Advancing Cloud Computing with AMD EPYC
Processors4th Gen AMD EPYC processors are also now being
used to run a new generation of general purpose, memory-intensive
and compute-optimized VMs. These new VMs from Microsoft continue to
showcase the growth and demand of AMD EPYC processors in the cloud
and will provide better price options, up to 20% better performance
for general purpose and memory-intensive VMs, and up to 2x the CPU
performance for compute-optimized VMs versus the previous
generation of AMD EPYC-powered VMs. The new VM series will be made
available in public preview in the first quarter of 2024.
At Ignite, AMD is also highlighting the Azure NGads V620 series
of VMs, now in general availability. It is a new addition to the
Azure N-series family of GPU-accelerated VMs for visualization.
These VMs are powered by multiple AMD technologies – AMD Radeon™
PRO V620 GPUs and 3rd Gen AMD EPYC CPUs. The NGads V620 series is
intended for workloads that require relatively more GPU resources
per VM, to support more demanding workloads or more users per VM.
The V620 delivers a great experience for multiple classes of GPU
workloads, including gaming, VDI and rendering. NG series users get
an optimized driver through the new AMD Software: Cloud
Edition.
AI for PCs AMD also showcased the ongoing
momentum of Ryzen AI, the first dedicated AI accelerator available
on an x86 processor. With over 50 systems available now with Ryzen
7000 Series processors with Ryzen AI built in, there are millions
of AMD AI PCs available in market. AMD and Microsoft have already
jointly enabled Windows Studio Effects on Ryzen AI PCs, and AMD
continues to work with software developers, to bring expanding AI
workloads and generative AI experiences to consumers.
Tune into the AMD Advancing AI event on December 6 at 10am PT to
hear more about the AMD portfolio of AI products.
