Apple reportedly evaluating Nvidia's NVLink to boost server chip connectivity

Published Sep 16, 01:04 PM UTC

According to a report by The Information, cited by financial data platform Jin10, Apple Inc. (AAPL.O) is evaluating the use of Nvidia's NVLink fusion technology to improve the connectivity of its server chips. This move would mark a potential shift in Apple's data center strategy, as the company has historically developed its own custom silicon for servers. The adoption of NVLink, a high-speed interconnect technology primarily used in Nvidia's AI and HPC GPU clusters, could significantly enhance the performance of Apple's server infrastructure for handling large-scale AI and machine learning workloads. The report is attributed to unnamed sources familiar with the matter, and no official confirmation from Apple or Nvidia has been provided. The consideration remains exploratory at this stage.
