Nvidia $NVDA -1.45% announced Monday that its Vera Rubin AI infrastructure platform is entering full production, with systems set to ship to cloud and enterprise customers this fall. The announcement came during a keynote by Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang at the Computex conference in Taipei.
The Vera Rubin platform is designed to power what Nvidia calls "agentic AI" workloads, where autonomous AI systems reason, use third-party software tools, and execute complex tasks on behalf of humans. The company said the platform delivers 10 times the agentic AI throughput of its previous-generation Grace Blackwell platform at one-tenth of the cost per token.
At the center of the platform sit Nvidia's new Rubin GPU and the Vera CPU, the latter of which the company confirmed has entered full production. Olympus, a custom core architecture, underpins the Vera CPU, which packs 88 cores and an LPDDR5X memory subsystem capable of 1.2 terabytes per second of bandwidth. According to Nvidia, the chip outpaces x86-based processors by 1.8 times on tasks central to agentic deployments, such as database queries and compiling code.
"AI agents will be the largest users of computing," Jensen Huang said in a statement. "Vera is the first CPU designed for that future — built to run agentic AI at hyperscale with extraordinary performance, efficiency and programmability."
