Nvidia has partnered with Google Cloud to launch the L4 platform, a new cloud hardware offering optimized for AI-powered video performance.
The L4 platform will be available in private preview on Google Cloud through G2 virtual machines, and is designed to accelerate video decoding, transcoding and streaming capabilities.
For those who prefer not to sign up with Google Cloud, L4 will be available later this year from Nvidia's hardware partners, including Asus, Cisco, Dell, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Lenovo.
Nvidia has also announced other AI-focused hardware solutions, including L40, H100 NVL and Grace Hopper for Recommendation Models, optimized for graphics, language models, and recommendation models respectively.
Additionally, Nvidia has launched the DGX Cloud platform, giving companies access to infrastructure and software to train models for generative and other forms of AI.
Nvidia is partnering with leading cloud service providers to host DGX Cloud infrastructure, starting with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and expanding to Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud.
With Nvidia's aggressive push into AI compute and its data center business continuing to grow, the company could continue to benefit from the generative AI boom.
