Ampere Computing

Ampere Computing designs high-performance, energy-efficient ARM-based central processing units specifically for cloud and data center environments. Its core products include the Altra and AmpereOne families of processors, which offer high core counts, up to 192 single-threaded cores, to meet the demands of cloud-native applications and artificial intelligence inferencing workloads. The company's innovative approach focuses on delivering predictable performance at scale while significantly reducing power consumption.

The company was founded in 2018 by semiconductor industry veteran Renée James. Her vision centered on addressing the increasing power constraints and evolving performance needs within the cloud computing landscape. James leveraged her extensive background in semiconductors to establish Ampere with a commitment to a rapid, predictable cadence of product releases that prioritize efficiency and sustainable computing.

Ampere's processors serve a broad range of applications, from power-constrained embedded devices and edge computing installations to enterprise and hyperscale data centers. It collaborates with major cloud suppliers and a growing partner ecosystem to integrate its solutions. Ampere’s long-term vision is to lead the future of sustainable computing by providing world-class performance for cloud-native applications and AI inferencing with the most power-efficient processors on the market, driving substantial operational savings for its customers.
