NVIDIA and Oracle plan multi-gigawatt Vera Rubin expansion on OCI
Vera Rubin NVL72 systems and Vera CPUs are now generally available on OCI, while the partners plan to expand Supercluster capacity to multi-gigawatt scale.
AT A GLANCE
Key points
- Vera Rubin NVL72 systems and Vera CPUs are generally available on OCI.
- The partners plan a multi-gigawatt OCI Supercluster expansion.
- The planned HGX Rubin NVL8 configuration includes eight GPUs and 6.4 Tbps RDMA networking.
What is changing?
NVIDIA and Oracle announced on October 27 that Vera Rubin NVL72 systems and NVIDIA Vera CPUs are generally available on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The companies also plan to expand OCI Superclusters with Vera Rubin-based systems to multi-gigawatt scale; that capacity target is a forward-looking roadmap rather than a current delivery.
NVL72 connects 72 GPUs in one rack through NVLink. OCI’s planned HGX Rubin NVL8 option is described with eight GPUs, two 64-core Intel Xeon 6 processors, 4 TB of DDR5 memory and 6.4 Tbps of RDMA networking. Oracle says customers will be able to scale CPU and GPU resources independently.
The announcement reflects a shift from individual servers toward data-center-scale design for large-model training and inference. For production teams, the practical questions will be available regions, delivery timelines, network topology and real workload cost rather than headline peak capacity alone.
