The five-year, multi-generational agreement includes collaboration across multiple AWS products and the use of AWS cloud infrastructure, underscoring the two company’s commitment to driving innovation in accelerated infrastructure.
The agreement covers a broad range of data centre semiconductors from Marvell, including the supply of custom AI products, optical digital signal processors (DSPs), active electrical cable (AEC) DSPs, PCIe retimers, data centre interconnect (DCI) optical modules and Ethernet switching silicon solutions.
Marvell has carved a pioneering role in essential silicon technologies and will help to enhance AWS efforts in advancing their data centre compute, networking and storage offerings, allowing AWS and their customers to achieve greater efficiency, lower total cost of ownership, and faster time to market.
Marvell has embraced a cloud-first approach by collaborating with AWS for electronic design automation (EDA) in the cloud. This relationship enables Marvell to accelerate silicon design with the advanced and scalable compute capabilities of AWS.
The ‘bursty nature’ of advanced node silicon design workloads is optimally addressed by the virtually unlimited scale and elasticity enabled by AWS compute infrastructure. By leveraging AWS’s capabilities, Marvell will parallelize additional design tasks, supporting its engineering teams with greater infrastructure resources and the flexibility to handle dynamic compute requirements and accelerate time-to-market for its products.
“Strengthening our partnership with AWS marks a significant milestone for Marvell, deepening our long-standing relationship in cloud computing and data centre semiconductors.” said Matt Murphy, Chairman and CEO at Marvell. “AWS's EDA solutions will help Marvell rapidly and securely scale our silicon design process and capabilities to deliver industry-leading accelerated infrastructure with best-in-class time to market.”
“Building a cost and power efficient cloud at the scale that only AWS can deliver begins with leading-edge semiconductors designed to meet the demanding infrastructure needs of our customers,” explained Matt Garman, CEO at AWS. “Our expanded collaboration with Marvell enables us to deploy our comprehensive semiconductor portfolio and specialised networking hardware to advance our mission to provide the industry’s most robust and scalable cloud and AI services to our customers”
