Google Cloud and NVIDIA Announce General Availability of NVIDIA Vera Rubin Infrastructure

From the source

General availability of the instances is coming next month, with planned expansion of availability to Europe — bringing an integrated platform for training, inference and large-scale reinforcement learning to cloud customers. A5X instances bring together NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, NVIDIA ConnectX-9 SuperNICs, Google Cloud Virgo Network and Google Cloud’s fourth-generation advanced liquid-cooling technology for demanding agentic inference and reinforcement learning workloads at scale. Google Cloud plans to scale its Vera Rubin-based infrastructure to as many as 960,000 Rubin GPUs across multiple sites. Ineffable Intelligence , a London-based technology company founded by AlphaGo creator David Silver, was the first customer to access A5X. Ineffable is using the platform to advance large-scale reinforcement learning and shape “superlearner” systems that learn continuously from experience. Learning through interaction requires a continuous cycle of generating experience, evaluating outcomes and updating models, requiring infrastructure that can support the entire process at scale. …
