128 core +5nm, the strongest domestic server chip was born, and the next

Mention Alibaba, probably most people will think of Taobao, Alipay and other Internet and even financial services. Indeed, Ali's business and investment companies are Internet companies, and they are the existence of apps that can be seen in mobile phones. However, I would say that Ali is also a semiconductor company, which most people may not believe. Domestic super chip was born

A few days ago, the media broke the news that Ali will start to study the chip business from 2019, and give it to its chip company "Ganghead Brother", which was established in 2018, to specific research and development. At present, the chip has been successfully streamed and will be released today.

Coincidentally, at the Ali Cloud Conference on October 19, Alibaba Gang head brother also officially released a self-developed chip, named Yitian 710, which is very martial arts taste, which is also very in line with Ali's corporate culture. At the conference, the person in charge of Pingtou elder elder said that Yitian 710 is the strongest ARM server chip in China and even in the world, the performance exceeds the current industry benchmark by about 20%, and the energy efficiency ratio is even increased by more than 50%, mainly used in Ali's cloud computing data center in the future, whether the specific future is sold out is not clear.

According to public information, the Itin 710 uses a 5nm process, and it is not clear whether it is manufactured by Samsung or TSMC. A single chip has up to 60 billion transistors, compared with 57 billion crystals in the just-released Apple M1 Max chip. In terms of chip architecture, the E-Tian 710 is based on the latest ARM v9 architecture, with 128 core cpus and a maximum frequency of 3.2GHz. In addition, the Itian 710 supports up to 8 channels of DDR5 memory and 96 PCIe5.0, which can fully meet the needs of relevant enterprise users. In the words of Zhang Jianfeng, president of Ali Cloud Intelligence and president of Ali Damo Institute, the research and development of Yitian 710 is based on the business strategy of "one cloud with multiple cores" and "doing deep foundation" of Ali Cloud, hoping to meet the diverse computing needs of customers. At present, this chip is mainly for Ali Cloud's own use, the future will not consider external sales for the time being, and Ali will continue to maintain close cooperation with Intel, ARM, NVIDIA and other partners, follow-up development of more chips, to provide customers with more options Zhang Jianfeng finally said that Gangtou Brother has spent 3 years of efforts to research and development, released the open source version of RISC-V series processors, And open the related series of tools and system software. They are four mass-produced processor IP, such as E902, E906, C906, C910, etc. Developers can realize open source EDA projects through the source code of Xuentie, and enrich the software application ecology. Ali's core building road has begun to pay off

From the release of this cloud conference today, I believe that I have refreshed a lot of people's impressions of Ali. After all, whether it is for Alibaba, or Ma Yun himself, there are very few and semiconductor chip hanging relationship, in fact, Ali has been laid out the semiconductor industry a long time ago, from the earliest Damo court, to the back of the flat head brother, Ali seems to have been and the semiconductor industry is not separated. However, most of Ali's semiconductor products are preferred for internal use in the company, and ordinary consumer users rarely have access to Ali's chips. However, this does not mean that the chips manufactured by Ali do not have technical content, take the just-released Yitian 710, whether it is 60 billion transistors or 5nm process, it is a very strong presence in the entire industry. You know, once we were proud of Hisilicon Semiconductor, its strongest server chip Kunpeng 920 can not be compared with Yitian 710, and even killed by seconds. Of course, as a product of the 7nm era, Kunpeng 920 is naturally inferior to the 5nm Yitian 710. At present, Huawei's difficulties are well known, and its server chips have not been updated for a long time. Fortunately, our domestic semiconductor people have now handed over the satisfactory answer of the Yitian 710, which is indeed very proud, and if the Flathehead brother can always adhere to independent research and development, it may also become the next Huawei Hisilis, let us bless them together.
