NVIDIA, Oracle plan multi-gigawatt OCI Supercluster with Vera Rubin

3 Key Points

  1. What happened

    NVIDIA and Oracle plan to expand OCI Supercluster to multi-gigawatt scale using NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 systems, and Vera Rubin NVL72 plus the NVIDIA Vera CPU are now generally available on OCI.

  2. Why it matters

    The combined infrastructure is designed to handle both heavy training work and the tasks agents run between model calls, letting users scale resources separately to fit their workloads.

WHO IT HITSEnterprises running frontier AI training and agent-based workloads on Oracle Cloud gain an option to size compute resources to their specific needs, though the multi-gigawatt expansion is a plan rather than a live service.

Context & Analysis

The announcement builds on OCI's existing NVIDIA-based infrastructure, which already includes NVIDIA GB200 and GB300 NVL72 systems. The planned Vera Rubin expansion is positioned as a further step on that same foundation, rather than a replacement. Because NVIDIA's CUDA software platform and ongoing software optimization carry across hardware generations, models and workloads are meant to evolve without being tied to a single system generation.

OCI Supercluster itself combines NVIDIA NVL72 rack-scale systems, Oracle Acceleron networking, NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking with Spectrum-6 switches and BlueField-4 DPUs, and gigawatt-class power and cooling. The collaboration aims to cover both training of frontier AI models and the execution of tasks agents perform between model calls, such as running tools, testing code, and retrieving data. Users can scale resources separately to match their workloads, which the companies present as allowing more flexible system design.
