NVIDIA and Oracle Expand NVIDIA Vera Rubin to Multi-Gigawatt Scale and Bring NVIDIA Vera CPU to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

NVIDIA and Oracle announced plans to expand OCI Superclusters with NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 systems to multi-gigawatt scale, and said Vera Rubin NVL72 and NVIDIA Vera CPUs are now generally available on OCI. OCI also plans to introduce NVIDIA HGX Rubin NVL8, an x86-based eight-GPU configuration with two 64-core Intel Xeon 6 CPUs, 4TB of DDR5 memory and 6.4 Tbps RDMA networking. OpenAI, which trained and served GPT-6 Astra on an OCI Supercluster with more than 100,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs in Abilene, is bringing Vera CPUs into production on OCI for agentic sandbox workloads.
