Google Cloud is empowering global scientific discovery and innovation by integrating Google DeepMind and Google Research technologies with its cloud infrastructure. This initiative aims to provide researchers with advanced, cloud-scale tools for scientific computing. The company is introducing supercomputing-class infrastructure, including H4D VMs powered by AMD CPUs and A4/A4X VMs powered by NVIDIA GPUs, which boast low-latency networking and high memory bandwidth. Additionally, Google Cloud Managed Lustre offers high-performance storage I/O, enabling scientists to tackle large-scale and complex scientific problems.
Google Cloud is also rolling out advanced scientific applications powered by AI models. These include AlphaFold 3 for predicting the structure and interactions of biomolecules, and WeatherNext models for weather forecasting. Moreover, the company is introducing AI agents designed to accelerate scientific discovery. As an example, Google Cloud and Ai2 are investing $20 million in the Cancer AI Alliance to accelerate cancer research using AI, advanced models, and cloud computing power. Google Cloud will provide the AI infrastructure and security, while Ai2 will deliver the training and development of cancer models.
In addition to these advancements, Google unveiled its seventh-generation Tensor Processing Unit (TPU), Ironwood. The company claims Ironwood delivers 24 times the computing power of the world’s fastest supercomputer when deployed at scale. Ironwood is specifically designed for inference workloads, marking a shift in Google's AI chip development strategy. When scaled to 9,216 chips per pod, Ironwood delivers 42.5 exaflops of computing power, and each chip comes with 192GB of High Bandwidth Memory.
