Fujitsu and NVIDIA Join Forces to Revolutionize AI Infrastructure

In a significant stride towards the development of artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, Fujitsu and NVIDIA have expanded their strategic partnership. This collaboration aims to create a comprehensive, AI-based infrastructure to enhance competitiveness in industries ranging from healthcare to manufacturing, utilizing AI agents to retain control over AI applications.

A Partnership with Global Impact

The alliance focuses on leveraging NVIDIA’s NVLink Fusion to integrate Fujitsu’s MONAKA CPU series with NVIDIA’s GPU technology, forming a robust AI computational framework. The initiative seeks to promote broad-based industrial transformation from Japan outward, applying AI to foster sustainability and competitive advantage worldwide.

Leadership Insights

Fujitsu’s CEO, Takahito Tokita, highlighted the potential of this collaboration to hasten the AI-driven transformation in business and government sectors. By merging cutting-edge technologies, the companies are setting the stage for deploying comprehensive AI infrastructure, initially targeting Japan’s manufacturing industry.

Echoing such optimism, NVIDIA’s CEO, Jensen Huang, recognized the collaboration as part of an AI revolution. With Fujitsu’s expertise in supercomputing and enterprise systems, this partnership seeks to expand AI ecosystems globally, forging a strong collaboration that defines the AI era.

Vision for AI Infrastructure

Central to this vision is the integration of high-speed AI computing with human ingenuity. The use of digital twins and physical AI aims to automate operations and spur innovation, addressing labor shortages while simultaneously advancing human creativity. This cross-industry AI infrastructure signifies a revolutionary step in automation and smart technology deployment.

Developing Industry-Specific Solutions

The collaboration will initially target healthcare and manufacturing sectors by developing specialized AI-driven robots. By utilizing advanced AI infrastructure, these robots are poised to support societal development by streamlining operations and offering solutions to complex challenges.

An Industry-Specific AI Agent Platform

Part of this initiative involves creating an AI agent platform based on Fujitsu’s Kozuchi platform. Designed for industry-specific applications, it will integrate Fujitsu’s AI computing technologies with NVIDIA Dynamo, offering high performance and security tailored to client needs. Enhancement of Fujitsu’s AI agent capabilities through NVIDIA’s NeMo and optimization tools is also on the docket.

Next-Gen Computing Infrastructure

The companies are co-developing next-generation computing platforms by combining Fujitsu’s ARM-directed software with NVIDIA’s CUDA technology. The fusion aims to create AI computing platforms capable of Zetascale performance, ready for extensive industrial applications. Their integrated software approach will advance the HPC-AI ecosystem, providing unparalleled AI transformation support.

Looking Ahead

By 2030, Fujitsu envisions its AI infrastructure as essential to Japan’s digital society, overcoming previous industry challenges and expanding the AI market. Although generative AI has simplified communication and creativity, its deployment remains costly and complex. Thus, Fujitsu and NVIDIA work to democratize AI accessibility, enhancing competitive autonomy for enterprises while supporting industry transformation.
