TOKYO — Xilinx is jumping into the increasingly hot race for hyperscale data centers.
The FPGA company is pursuing Altera (now a part of Intel), who took an early lead in the growing market by getting designed into Microsoft’s Project Catapult, the technology behind Microsoft’s hyperscale acceleration fabric. Xilinx also plans to go after the inference side of machine learning, an area in which the company is confident in beating Nvidia, as the GPU company is more focused on the training side of machine learning.
