AI factories are power-limited systems that deliver maximum value when fully optimized. GPU workload placement is a key optimization. Poor workload placement fragments topology domains and forces traffic across shared links, reducing throughput, raising job costs, and leaving GPUs consuming provisioned power while waiting on data without advancing the workload. GPUs exchange data continuously…

The compute and memory demands of generative AI increasingly exceed what a single GPU can provide. NVIDIA TensorRT multi-device inference is a new capability that enables a single TensorRT network to execute across multiple GPUs using NCCL-backed distributed collectives while retaining TensorRT inference optimizations. It is fully supported starting with TensorRT 11.0.

Weather-sensitive industries increasingly have access to observations that offer an earlier, more local view of changing conditions. Energy companies collect measurements across wind and solar assets, emergency management teams rely on radar and local sensors, and satellite providers continuously observe the Earth. This data helps organizations understand and manage physical risk across sectors…

You’re deploying a model on a system. It starts up, prompts are getting responses. Now the hard question: Is this fast? Your instincts might lead you to send curl commands, hand-roll an asyncio script, or vibe code yet another one-off load generator. All of these paths have the same problem: single-process performance limits, Python’s GIL capping concurrency, or numbers measured against a…

cuTile Rust () is a tile-based system for safe, idiomatic GPU kernel authoring in the Rust programming language. Extending the Rust ownership model to tile-based GPU kernels, it splits mutable outputs into disjoint pieces and preserves the host-side ownership contract across kernel launches. It also allows programmers to opt out locally when they need lower-level control…

Mixture of experts (MoE) has become one of the defining architectural trends in large-scale AI model training. DeepSeek, Qwen, and Mixtral are examples of MoE models that match or exceed the performance of dense model counterparts at a fraction of the training compute. MoE models provide efficient training through conditional computation. Instead of one dense feed-forward network (FFN) shared…

Deploying a large language model is only the first step toward production-ready serving. Production teams also need to serve as many concurrent users as possible on available GPU infrastructure while preserving the interactivity that keeps applications responsive. That tradeoff matters even more for agentic AI workloads, where prompts can be long, context can be reused across steps…

Encode-prefill-decode (EPD) disaggregation is an inference optimization technique for multimodal models that separates the vision encoder stage from the prefill and decode stages. It is most effective for image-heavy prompts, short-to-medium outputs, and quantized mixture-of-experts (MoE) models. This post shows when and how to use EPD disaggregation with NVIDIA Dynamo to achieve up to 5x…

Every NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit release adds functionality and performance improvements that help developers get more from NVIDIA GPUs and the broader NVIDIA software platform. CUDA Toolkit 13.4 adds support for Windows on Arm. CUDA applications have long been supported on Arm platforms through Linux; this release extends that capability to the Windows on Arm platform.

In September 2026, NVIDIA announced it is leaning into native GPU programming in Rust. CUDA C++ and CUDA Python are mature, enterprise-grade toolchains, and NVIDIA will be growing and maturing CUDA Rust into 2027 and beyond The systems layer of AI spans inference engines, serving infrastructure, drivers, and agent runtimes, and it churns constantly as models and techniques change.

Enterprise work spans messages, decisions, projects, and obligations that change over time. An AI agent that starts without this context must reconstruct it before contributing. To provide agents with this necessary context, our team used NVIDIA NemoClaw to build a memory-driven Chief of Staff. It maintains a human-readable knowledge layer called the self model: an agent memory of relevant…

Modern AI platforms are no longer a single application behind one login screen. A user may start in a central portal, open a governed dataset, launch a notebook where that data resides, and invoke an assistant that calls services in another cluster. The workflow feels unified, but identity crosses control-plane and data-plane boundaries at every step. That is where conventional single sign-on…

A perception stack is shaped by the vehicle that carries it. Move the same software to a new carline—for example, from an SUV to a sedan or another vehicle variant in the portfolio—and its perception of the world changes. The sensor placement, calibration, fields of view, occlusions, body geometry, timing, and coverage all shift. A traffic light may appear in a different part of the frame.

For years, a Python developer who needed a GPU had two realistic choices: Learn NVIDIA CUDA C++ well enough to write an extension, set up a build toolchain, and maintain bindings back to Python, which most people never did; or move up the stack and let someone else’s library do it, namely PyTorch, CuPy, or RAPIDS. The second option is why the Python GPU ecosystem thrives. But it has limits.
