NVIDIA collaborates with Red Hat, Microsoft and Ericsson.
The Mobile World Congress, Los Angeles, witnessed a couple of announcements from NVIDIA’s CEO, Jensen Huang, who delivered the keynote address. NVIDIA has collaborated with companies like Red Hat, Microsoft and Ericsson to enhance their portfolio.
NVIDIA and Red Hat are expanding their alliance to deliver high-performance, software-defined 5G wireless infrastructure, running on Red Hat OpenShift, to the telecom industry. The collaboration can help telcos transition to 5G networks capable of running a range of software defined edge workloads. Work will initially focus on 5G radio access networks (RAN), aimed at making AI-enabled applications more accessible at the telco edge.
NVIDIA has collaborated with Microsoft to focus on intelligent edge computing, designed to help industries better manage and gain insights from the growing flood of data created by retail stores, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, connected buildings, urban infrastructure and other environments. By enabling closer integration between Microsoft Azure and the NVIDIA EGX platform, the companies are working together to advance edge-to-cloud AI computing capabilities, benefiting businesses worldwide.
NVIDIA and Ericsson are collaborating on technologies that can allow telco operators to build high-performing, efficient and completely virtualized 5G radio access networks (RAN). These virtualized networks can enable faster and more flexible introduction of new AI and IoT services.
Apart from this, NVIDIA also introduced its new offering, EGX Edge Supercomputing Platform, a high-performance, cloud-native platform, enables organizations to harness rapidly streaming data from factory floors, manufacturing inspection lines and city streets to securely deliver next-generation AI, IoT and 5G-based services at scale, with low latency.
