Additionally, AMD EPYC Processors and AMD Instinct accelerators are being used to power many new supercomputing and AI projects and deployments including:

• Eni, the Italian energy company, recently announced the HPC 6 supercomputer powered by AMD EPYC CPUs and AMD Instinct GPUs. HPC 6 is one of the world’s most powerful supercomputers dedicated to industrial applications and is now the fifth fastest supercomputer in the world.
  
  
• The University of Paderborn is in the process of taking delivery and installing a new supercomputer powered by the latest 5th Gen AMD EPYC CPUs.
  
  
• Sigma2 AS will replace two of three nationally owned supercomputers in Norway with an HPE Cray Supercomputing EX system powered by 5th Gen AMD EPYC CPUs. When fully installed, this supercomputer is expected to be the fastest system in Norway.
  
  
• IBM and AMD have announced a collaboration to deploy AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators as a service on IBM Cloud. This offering, expected to be available in the first half of 2025, aims to enhance performance and power efficiency for Gen AI models such as high-performance computing applications for enterprise clients. The collaboration will also enable support for AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators within IBM’s watsonx AI and data platform, as well as Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® AI inferencing support.
  
  
• AMD Instinct MI300A APUs will also power a next-generation supercomputer system for Japan’s National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST). The system, built by NEC Corporation, will use 280 AMD Instinct MI300A APUs to drive AI and scientific research for the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology, and the National Institute for Fusion Science.
