Meta expands AI empire with NVIDIA’s cutting-edge infrastructure

Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, has announced a multi-year strategic partnership with NVIDIA to advance its long-term AI infrastructure roadmap.

The large-scale deployment of NVIDIA technologies builds on the companies’ existing relationship and will support Meta’s expansion of AI-optimized data centres for both training and inference, as well as its core business operations.

The collaboration is also expected to deliver significant improvements in performance per watt, enabling more efficient AI operations at scale.

“No one deploys AI at Meta’s scale — integrating frontier research with industrial-scale infrastructure to power the world’s largest personalization and recommendation systems for billions of users,” said Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Through deep co-design across CPUs, GPUs, networking and software, we are bringing the full NVIDIA platform to Meta’s researchers and engineers as they build the foundation for the next AI frontier.”

As part of the expanded partnership, Meta has adopted several key NVIDIA technologies:

NVIDIA Confidential Computing for WhatsApp private messaging, enabling AI-powered capabilities across the platform while ensuring user data confidentiality and integrity.

NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking platform across its infrastructure footprint to deliver AI-scale networking with predictable, low-latency performance, improved utilisation and enhanced power efficiency.

Under this multi-generational collaboration, engineering teams from both companies will work closely to optimise and accelerate state-of-the-art AI models across Meta’s core workloads, driving greater performance and efficiency for AI capabilities used by billions worldwide.

“We’re excited to expand our partnership with NVIDIA to build leading-edge clusters using their Vera Rubin platform to deliver personal superintelligence to everyone in the world,” said Mark Zuckerberg, Founder and CEO of Meta.
