Joint IBM next-generation Nvidia OpenPOWER servers: Tesla P100-Nvidia,IBM-IT information
IT information news on April 9, a few days ago, Nvidia in GTC2016 Conference introduced a new generation of computing cards Tesla P100, its powerful multiple-precision arithmetic properties of the concern of the industry's great, now IBM has announced collaboration with Nvidia, joint development of the next generation of OpenPOWER servers.
Is different from other servers, a new generation of OpenPOWER servers will operate under the newly developed using Nvidia NV-link data channel. The effective bandwidth of up to 40GB/S, this new data channel can provide more bandwidth and faster transmission speed, dramatically improve the performance of the entire server, but also for the future of artificial intelligence and high-performance computing make the best preparations.
IBM in the of Watson sector also will joined to whole server of development in the to, allegedly, OpenPOWER early will will using IBM development of 4 a POWER8 processor, each a a processor has 12 a core and 96 a thread of terrorist parameter, while memory capacity up to 1TB of more, in joined has Nvidia Tesla P100 zhihou, believes regardless of is artificial intelligence also is other of high performance calculation, in so powerful of server of added holding Xia are no longer is problem, But, more importantly, IBM POWER9 as a template for the development of the next generation. Possible future high-performance servers to high-performance CPU and GPU combination and development.
Nvidia联合IBM研发下一代OpenPOWER服务器：采用Tesla P100 - Nvidia,IBM - IT资讯
IT资讯讯 4月9日消息，前几天，Nvidia在GTC2016大会上推出了新一代的计算卡Tesla P100，其强大的多精度运算性能受到了业界极大的关注，目前IBM已经宣布与Nvidia合作，共同开发下一代的OpenPOWER服务器。
与其他服务器不同的是，新一代的OpenPOWER服务器将会采用Nvidia公司全新研制的NV-link数据通道。其有效带宽高达40GB/S，这一全新的数据通道能够提供更多的带宽和更快的传送速度，让整个服务器的性能得到大幅度地提高，同时也为未来的人工智能与高性能运算做好最充足的准备。
IBM中的沃森部门也将加入到整个服务器的研发中来，据称，OpenPOWER初期将会使用IBM研发的4个POWER8处理器，每一个处理器拥有12个核心和96个线程的恐怖参数，同时内存容量高达1TB之多，在加入了Nvidia Tesla P100之后，相信无论是人工智能还是其他的高性能计算，在如此强大的服务器的加持下都不再是问题，而且更为重要的是IBM下一代的POWER9将以此为模板进行开发。可能未来的高性能服务器就以高性能CPU和GPU相结合的方式而发展。
