NVIDIA and Marvel Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MRVL) announced a new partnership. This partnership will connect Marvell to the NVIDIA AI Factory Open Bucket, a set of platforms and resources for developing Artificial intelligence solutions and the AI RAN ecosystem (a network system that uses artificial intelligence to manage and optimize radio access networks) using NVIDIA NVLink Fusion (a high-speed interconnect technology for data and workload sharing). It will give customers more options and flexibility when building next-generation infrastructure on Nvidia architectures. The companies also plan to work together on silicon photonics technology (using light to transfer data between computer chips).
In addition to the partnership, Nvidia has invested $2 billion in Marvell, strengthening their collaboration.
This partnership builds on NVIDIA NVLink Fusion and the ARC Scale platform. It allows customers to create semi-custom AI infrastructure within the NVIDIA NVLink ecosystem, including Marvel, Wheel Supply, custom XPUs, and networking compatible with NVIDIA Fusion. NVIDIA will provide supporting technologies, including the Vera CPU, ConnectX Nic’s, DPU’s, NVLink, Interconnect, Spectrum X switches, and rack-scale AI compute.
For customers building custom CPUs, NV Link Fusion enables the creation of a mixed AI infrastructure that fully works with NVLink. This makes it easy to integrate with NVIDIA GPUs, LPUs, networking, and storage platforms. Customers can also leverage NVIDIA’s technology stack and global supply chain.
The companies also plan to turn global telecommunication methods into an AI infrastructure. They will use Nvidia, Ariel, and AI-RAN for 5G and 6G. Their goal is to improve AI networking by introducing advanced optical interconnect solutions and silicon Photonics Technology.
The inference infection has arrived. Token generation demand is surging, and the world is racing to build AI factories, said Jensen Kuang, founder and CEO of Nvidia. Together with Marvel, we are enabling customers to leverage Nvidia’s AI infrastructure ecosystem and scale to build specialized AI. Compute.
Our expanded partnership with NVIDIA highlights the importance of air-scaling AI through high school connectivity, optical interconnect, and advanced interconnect infrastructure, said Matt Murphy, chairman and CEO of Marvell. By combining Marvell’s strengths in high-performance analog optical DSP silicon photonics and custom silicon with NVIDIA’s growing AI ecosystem through NVLink Fusion, we help customers build scalable yet efficient AI infrastructure.
