Leaning on a strong cloud ecosystem

NVIDIA T4 GPUs are now featured in second-generation Arm servers at cloud service providers, delivering significantly improved app-streams-per-server and lower cost per-user. Canonical's Anbox platform provides a complete solution to containerize mobile apps and works seamlessly with NVIDIA's Linux and Android software stacks. Together, Canonical and NVIDIA provide a scalable solution to virtualize mobile apps, and stream them securely to the growing population of 5G mobile devices.

Phil Eisler, VP Cloud Streaming at NVIDIA

It's no secret that TCO is a key driver of cloud provider decisions. And that's what gets Arm excited about the Android in the Cloud solution Ampere, Canonical and NETINT have developed. The Ampere Altra CPU packs 80 high-performance Neoverse N1 cores into a very power-efficient design that should deliver incredible TCO for Android in the Cloud use cases like cloud gaming, Android app development and IoT enablement to cloud providers.

Robbie Williamson, Arm Senior Director of Solutions Engineering

The combination of Ampere's Arm-based servers with a provisioned virtualisation solution like Canonical's Anbox Cloud delivers the flexible, high-performance and secure infrastructure that developers need in order to deliver a better user experience for consumers.

Jeff Wittich, SVP of Products at Ampere

As small, low-powered devices inundate our world, offloading applications to nearby cloud servers opens up a huge number of opportunities for efficiency, as well as new experiences. We're excited to support the Anbox Cloud team as they grow alongside the worldwide rollout of 5G.

Jacob Smith, Co-founder and CMO Packet (now Equinix Metal)

Canonical's inclusion of the Intel Visual Cloud Accelerator Card - Render as part of their newly launched Anbox Cloud solution will enable the delivery of enhanced cloud and mobile gaming experiences on Android devices, supporting an emerging industry opportunity today, and for the upcoming 5G era.
