Day 1 of the OpenPOWER Foundation Summit was all about GPUs,
beginning with NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang’s keynote at the NVIDIA GPU Technology Conference (GTC), where the OpenPOWER Foundation
Summit was taking place.

You need a supercharged version
of computing. We call it: GPU
Accelerated Computing.

With NVLink connecting the
POWER8 CPU directly to the
Pascal GPU, OpenPOWER
systems will leverage the compute
horsepower of GPUs in a
revolutionary new way

We believe the CPU & GPU
are peers, which is why we’re
providing NVLink connectivity
between the POWER8 CPU
& Pascal GPU.”

How much faster is Pascal
with NVLink versus Maxwell?

12x FASTERthan last year’s Maxwell
systems in training image
recognition DNNs with
Pascal GPUs. That’s
1.33B images a day.

To help OpenPOWER
developers take full
advantage of the Pascal
GPU, they have released a
new SDK.

In addition to GPUs, OpenPOWER
innovation was in full force.
For example, members
demonstrated that
OpenPOWER is the
platform for Big Data
Analytics.

82xFASTER queries
and reports with POWER8 and
DB2

They also demonstrated
the broad range of
solutions and offerings
enabled by an open
ecosystem

With facial recognition technology,
retailers can get real-time feedback on
customers’ reactions to their products,
it’s packaging, or ingredients.

The open source nature of the
OpenPOWER stack facilitates creating
applications we never could have
before.
