Oracle 带来 Google的TPU到其云，新增 ChatGPT集成
Oracle Corp. 今天的宣布计划通过它的公云提供Google LLC的CPU人工智能加速器。
该举措标志着搜索巨头首次向另一个超规模机提供芯片。 CNBC表示，Oracle也会加入Cerebras系统公司(英语：Cerebras Systems Inc.)的瓦弗级加速器和OpenAI Group PBC的哈拉佩尼奥推论处理器。 后一种芯片是更广泛的伙伴关系的一部分，其中也包括若干新披露的云服务。
光学网络链接
Google的TPU使用两种名为ICI和OCS的技术交换数据。 ICS通过铜线传输数据，而OCS则使用光学链接。 通过光学链接发送数据通常需要服务器将光信号转换成电，然后返回光线。 Google的OCS技术跳过了这个步骤，这降低了功率使用率。 它使用微小的机械镜将光束引向接收服务器的方向。
Oracle数据中心的TPU将使用OCS和ICI技术互相交换数据。 他们将使用数据库巨头自己的Aceleron联网技术连接到主机数据中心的其余部分。 Acceleron由定制SmartNIC提供动力，这是用于执行网络管理和网络安全任务的优化芯片。
Oracle资深副总裁Karan Batta和Google Cloud资深主任Gurmeet Goundi在博客文章中写道
Oracle明年将开始在其云中部署Google的芯片。 它计划从那里逐渐增加更多的TPU能力。 CNBC报告说，Oracle还打算部署Cerebras的AI芯片，这种芯片是硅瓦的大小，含有数万亿晶体管，以及OpenAI的哈拉佩尼奥推论加速器。 8月，ChatGPT开发商表示，芯片可以运行一些开源型号比竞争硅快1.5倍。
Oracle与OpenAI的伙伴关系也扩展到其他领域。 今日的公司宣布集成使得客户可以通过ChatGPT访问前公司的应用程序。 此外，Oracle还将使用OpenAI模型为一系列新的云服务提供动力。
工作流程自动化
Oracle提供一套云端应用，方便日常业务任务，如管理客户记录。 该公司正在推出一项名为AI Workspace的服务，将把这些服务与ChatGPT整合。 整合将使聊天机器人能够代表工人执行Oracle应用程序中的任务。 必要时还可以循环外部应用。
Oracle产品营销总监Michelle Meng在博客文章中写道，“如果需要找到替代产品，检查库存，了解客户要求，核实运输情况，评估财务影响，更新订单。 工作空间可以在整个过程中保持目标，同时协调各种应用、agents、处理该问题所需的数据和工具。”
公司将一些任务自动化，使用现成的聊天机和其他有自定义应用程序的。 一个新的名为App Composer的Oracle工具可以减轻构建和管理此类应用程序的任务。 该公司表示，它使非技术用户能够使用AI助手来写自定义软件。 App 编译器扫描该软件的弱点，然后将其部署在管理下的云基础设施上。
“Oracle管理部署和运作，而IT控制访问、核准的数据、政策和费用”,Oracle高级产品营销经理Blair Bozada解释说。
App Composer正在推出一个名为AI Security Mesh的脆弱性补救工具。 它使用OpenAI的网络安全优化AI模型在客户的应用中找到弱点。 它按严重程度优先处理脆弱性问题，并建议为每个问题制定解决办法。
新的服务还有一套名为Oracle AI SMB Bundle的面向小企业的“免费启动”产品。 它包括AI Works,App Composer,NetApp快速创业会计平台，ChatGPT Business和Codex. Oracle 称，客户每年将获得1.2万元的云信用额。

Oracle brings Google’s TPUs to its cloud, adds ChatGPT integrations
Oracle Corp. today announced plans to make Google LLC’s TPU artificial intelligence accelerators available through its public cloud.
The initiative marks the first time the search giant is supplying the chips to another hyperscaler. According to CNBC, Oracle will also add Cerebras Systems Inc.’s wafer-scale accelerators and OpenAI Group PBC’s Jalapeño inference processor. The latter chip is part of a broader partnership that also encompasses several newly revealed cloud services.
Optical network links
Google’s TPUs exchange data using two technologies called ICI and OCS. ICS transmits data via copper wires, while OCS employs optical links. Sending data over an optical link usually requires servers to turn light signals into electricity and then back into light. Google’s OCS technology skips that step, which lowers power usage. It employs tiny mechanical mirrors to steer light beams in the direction of the recipient servers.
The TPUs in Oracle’s data centers will use OCS and ICI technology to exchange data with one another. They will connect to the rest of the host data center using the database giant’s own Acceleron networking technology. Acceleron is powered by a custom SmartNIC, a chip optimized to perform network management and cybersecurity tasks.
“Acceleron’s SmartNIC with hardware-level tenant isolation, High Performance Fabric, and Zero Trust Packet Routing moves data between Oracle databases, storage, and TPU clusters with high throughput and low latency,” Oracle Senior Vice President Karan Batta and Google Cloud Senior Director Gurmeet Goindi wrote in a blog post.
Oracle will start deploying Google’s chips in its cloud next year. It plans to gradually add more TPU capacity from there. CNBC reported that Oracle also intends to deploy Cerebras’ AI chips, which are the size of a silicon wafer and contain trillions of transistors, as well as OpenAI’s Jalapeño inference accelerator. In August, the ChatGPT developer stated that the chip can run some open-source models 1.5 times faster than competing silicon.
Oracle’s partnership with OpenAI also extends to other areas. The companies today announced integrations that will enable customers to access the former company’s applications through ChatGPT. Additionally, Oracle will use OpenAI models to power a series of new cloud services.
Workflow automation
Oracle offers a portfolio of cloud applications that ease day-to-day business tasks such as managing customer records. The company is rolling out a service called AI Workspace that will integrate those services with ChatGPT. The integrations will enable the chatbot to perform tasks in Oracle applications on workers’ behalf. It can also loop in external applications when necessary.
“Consider a customer order put at risk by a supplier delay,” Oracle product marketing director Michelle Meng wrote in a blog post. “Solving it could require finding an alternative product, checking inventory, understanding customer requirements, validating transportation, assessing financial impact and updating the order. Workspace can maintain the goal throughout the process while coordinating the applications, agents, data and tools needed to address it.”
Companies automate some tasks using off-the-shelf chatbots and others with custom applications. A new Oracle tool called App Composer will ease the task of building and managing such applications. According to the company, it enables non-technical users to write custom software using AI assistants. App Composer scans that software for vulnerabilities and then deploys it on managed cloud infrastructure.
“Oracle manages deployment and operations, while IT controls access, approved data, policies, and costs,” explained Blair Bozada, a senior product marketing manager at Oracle.
App Composer is rolling out alongside a vulnerability remediation tool called AI Security Mesh. It uses OpenAI’s cybersecurity-optimized AI models to find weak points in customers’ applications. It prioritizes vulnerabilities by severity and suggests a fix for each one.
The new services are joined by a new “free-to-start” product suite called the Oracle AI SMB Bundle that is geared toward small businesses. It includes AI Workplace, App Composer, the NetApp QuickStart accounting platform, ChatGPT Business and Codex. Oracle says that customers will receive $12,000 in cloud credits per year.
