Saturates with Networking, Hardware control, and data processing tasks causing system bottlenecks and reduced output.
AI-CPU
Purpose-built for Inference AI Head-Nodes.
The NR1® Chip is the first AI-CPU – Creating perfect system harmony with any GPU to eliminate bottlenecks and achieve maximum GPU output.
Engineered to transform your Inference-as-a-Service unit economics by solving the fundamental architectural bottleneck caused by dated general-purpose CPU and NIC technologies, NR1 AI-CPU is a Heterogeneous Compute server on a chip featuring enhanced video, audio, DSP, and CPU processors, with a hardware-based AI-Hypervisor that orchestrate the harmony between those processors and any attached GPU, all fused with an embedded AI-over-Fabric network engine. It delivers the best system performance-per-dollar
