On November 1, 2024, AMD and Fujitsu announced a strategic partnership to develop more sustainable computing infrastructure aimed at accelerating open-source Al initiatives.
The partnership aims for Sustainable Computing by focusing on creating energy-efficient computing platforms that combine Fujitsu's next-generation Arm-based FUJITSU-MONAKA processors with AMD's Instinct™ accelerators.
Further for accelerating Open-Source Artificial Intelligence (Al), the collaboration aims to advance the development of open-source Al software optimized for these new computing platforms. This will help expand the ecosystem and promote the societal implementation of Al. Engineering, Ecosystems, and Business: The partnership will focus
Additionally, the partnership will focus on three strategic areas – engineering innovative computing platforms, fostering an open-source ecosystem, and expanding business opportunities globally.
Fujitsu and AMD plan to jointly develop these computing platforms by 2027, offering more sustainable options in both hardware and software.
This collaboration is expected to bring together Fujitsu's advanced CPU technology and AMD's GPU technology to create a more sustainable and efficient Al/HPC platform ecosystem.
Fujitsu and AMD will also collaborate on marketing and co-creation with customers to offer these AI computing platforms globally. In addition, to expand AI use cases and promote the societal implementation of AI, based on the computing infrastructure of FUJITSU-MONAKA and AMD Instinct accelerators, both companies will collaborate to build an open and more sustainable AI/HPC platform ecosystem, including a joint customer center.
Through this collaboration, Fujitsu and AMD are bringing their respective world-leading technologies together and will promote open-source AI initiatives by offering more sustainable options in both hardware and software that can be utilized by many companies.
