AMD and HPE expand collaboration to advance open rack-scale AI infrastructure

AMD announced an expanded collaboration with HPE to accelerate the next generation of open, scalable AI infrastructure built on AMD leadership compute technologies. HPE will become one of the first system providers to adopt the AMD “Helios” rack-scale AI architecture, which will integrate a purpose-built HPE Juniper Networking scale-up switch – in collaboration with Broadcom – and software for seamless, high-bandwidth connectivity over Ethernet.  

“Helios” combines AMD EPYC CPUs, AMD Instinct GPUs, AMD Pensando advanced networking and the AMD ROCm open software stack to deliver a cohesive platform optimised for performance, efficiency, and scalability. The system is engineered to simplify deployment of large-scale AI clusters, enabling faster time to solution and greater infrastructure flexibility across research, cloud, and enterprise environments.

“HPE has been an exceptional long-term partner to AMD, working with us to redefine what is possible in high-performance computing,” said Dr. Lisa Su, Chair and CEO, AMD. “With ‘Helios’, we’re ...
