Delivering Vera: NVIDIA’s First CPU Built for Agents Is Shipping Now
NVIDIA Vice President of Hyperscale and HPC Ian Buck hand-delivers Vera CPU systems across the AI ecosystem as Vera begins shipping at scale.
NVIDIA unveiled its first CPU designed specifically for agentic AI, called Vera, marking a new era in AI infrastructure. Veracpu-based systems are now shipping to major players in the AI ecosystem, including AWS, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceXAI. Ian Buck, NVIDIA's Vice President of Hyperscale and HPC, personally delivered the first Vera CPU server and GPU to AWS in Seattle.
Agentic AI, which involves AI agents performing tasks like building slides, compiling software, analyzing data, and running simulations, puts increased demands on CPUs. Vera is built to handle these tasks efficiently, featuring 88 custom NVIDIA-designed Olympus cores, 1.2TB/s of memory bandwidth, and up to 1.8x faster per-core performance on agentic AI workloads.
This new CPU aims to help users complete tasks more quickly and increase the efficiency of the entire AI factory.
