NVIDIA Vera CPU
Vera is NVIDIA's first CPU built on its own Olympus microarchitecture rather than a licensed design, and the number that explains why it exists is memory bandwidth: 1.2 TB/s, double what the previous Grace Hopper platform offered, aimed squarely at feeding trillion-parameter models without the CPU becoming the bottleneck. It ships inside DGX Vera Rubin systems, where NVLink 6 gives it coherent, PCIe-free access to the Rubin GPUs sitting next to it — each rack supporting more than 22,500 concurrent CPU environments. It's already available through AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Oracle, which matters more than the spec sheet: for anyone training at real scale, this is infrastructure they can rent today, not a future promise.
