Oracle Cloud to deploy 50,000 AMD AI chips, signaling new Nvidia competition
Oracle Cloud will deploy 50,000 AMD Instinct MI450 GPUs from mid-2026 as a key alternative to Nvidia’s dominance in AI cloud infrastructure, executives said.
- On Tuesday, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure announced it will deploy 50,000 Advanced Micro Devices graphics processors using AMD's Instinct MI450 chips.
- Earlier this month, OpenAI struck a deal with AMD for processors requiring six gigawatts over multiple years as OpenAI leaders say they need AI chips from multiple suppliers.
- Oracle highlighted the MI450's rack assembly capability, as the Instinct MI450 chips scale into 72-chip rack configurations, and Karan Batta said, "I think AMD has done a really fantastic job, just like Nvidia, and I think both of them have their place."
- Market watchers note the deployment shifts focus to commercial outcomes as Daniel Newman, CEO of The Futurum Group, says Oracle must capitalize on capacity and add enterprise value.
- Against Nvidia's dominance, major cloud deals shift vendor positioning as Nvidia holds over 90% of the data-center GPU market and OpenAI signed a $300 billion deal with Oracle.
