☆ Ampere says flagship chip to be offered by Google Cloud
  + stars: | 2023-08-29 | by ( Stephen Nellis | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
Aug 29 (Reuters) - Ampere Computing, a semiconductor firm headed by ex-Intel executives that is planning to list its shares publicly, said on Tuesday its flagship chips will be offered by Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Google Cloud service. The deal is significant because cloud computing firms such as Google are some of the biggest buyers of data center chips. Jeff Wittich, Ampere's chief product officer, said more deals with other cloud providers will follow later this year, but he declined to name them. Ampere's chips use technology from SoftBank Group's (9984.T) Arm, which revealed earlier this month in initial public offering filings that it owns a 6.8% stake in Ampere. Ampere's chips aim to use less energy than rival chips from Intel while doing similar kinds of computing work.

☆ Ampere Computing launches its custom chips aimed at cloud computing
  + stars: | 2023-05-18 | by ( Stephen Nellis | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
May 18 (Reuters) - Ampere Computing on Thursday released a new family of data center chips with technology it has custom-designed for cloud computing companies. Founded by former Intel Corp (INTC.O) president Renee James, Ampere has focused on courting cloud companies that buy thousands of chips at a time and in turn rent them out. Unlike Intel, Ampere uses a computing architecture from SoftBank Group Corp-owned (9984.T) Arm Ltd, which is also an investor in Ampere. The new Ampere chips will have as many as 192 of those cores where Intel chips tend to have only a few dozen. We are ever hopeful that the market will open and that it will open for growth companies," James said.
