en.Wedoany.com Reported - NVIDIA and Marvell Technology recently announced an expansion of their strategic partnership, aiming to connect Marvell to NVIDIA's AI Factories and AI-RAN ecosystem through the NVIDIA NVLink Fusion platform. This AI Factory collaboration provides customers adopting NVIDIA's architecture with more choices and flexibility when building next-generation infrastructure. Additionally, the two companies will collaborate in the field of silicon photonics technology.

As part of the collaboration, NVIDIA has invested $2 billion in Marvell to support the research and development of AI infrastructure. Based on NVIDIA NVLink Fusion, a rack-scale platform that enables customers to leverage the NVIDIA NVLink ecosystem to develop semi-custom AI infrastructure. Marvell will provide custom XPUs and expansion networks compatible with NVLink Fusion, while NVIDIA will offer technical support including Vera CPUs, ConnectX NICs, BlueField DPUs, NVLink interconnects, and Spectrum-X switches, as well as rack-scale AI computing.

For customers developing custom XPUs, NVLink Fusion enables heterogeneous AI infrastructure fully compatible with NVIDIA systems, allowing for seamless integration with NVIDIA GPUs, LPUs, networking, and storage platforms while benefiting from NVIDIA's global supply chain ecosystem. The two companies also plan to transform global telecommunications networks into AI infrastructure through NVIDIA Aerial AI-RAN for 5G/6G and advance advanced optical interconnect solutions and silicon photonics technology.
