What are the preparations for the alliance between IBM and nvidia and Google?

Google, IBM, mellanox, NVIDIA, and tai'an today announced the establishment of the "openpower Consortium", an open organization based on the IBM power microprocessor architecture.

According to the official statement, the mission of the openpower alliance is to build more advanced server, network, storage, and GPU acceleration technologies, it provides more choices, more flexible control, and better elasticity for the next generation, ultra-large scale, and cloud data centers.

With the establishment of the Alliance, the Power Architecture hardware and software will go towards open development for the first time, instead of limited to IBM closed doors, and the power IP is also open to the outside for authorization, provides open-source power firmware and software that can control the basic functions of the chip. The Alliance welcomes any interested vendors to cooperate with them.

IBM has a multi-core processor technology patent, Google has the world's strongest network information collection capabilities, the largest server group, NV has the strongest graphics processor design capabilities, tai'an is the server motherboard manufacturer, what are they going to do together? Most of them are preparing to build the hardware infrastructure of artificial intelligence networks covering the world. IBM is also the backend boss of the Apache open-source organization, and the US military is also the backend boss of IBM ....

It is estimated that new members will join the alliance, such as red hats... They are preparing for the future global SMART network era. We should pay attention to them in China...

China and Russia and other allies need to build their own artificial intelligence networks and develop their own hardware platforms and operating systems. Otherwise, they will be more passive in the AI era!
