High Performance and Energy Efficient Processor for Next Generation Data Centres: FUJITSU - MONAKA
Priyanka Sharma · 2023
As our society makes a digital shift, demand for energy and sustainable solutions raises growing energy demands from the ever-increasing needs of data centres. Japan's New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) has launched an ambitious initiative that aims to achieve energy savings of 40% or more in datacentres domestically by 2030. Fujitsu's MONAKA is a 2 nm Arm CPU slated to be launched in 2027 and will focus majorly on energy efficient solution to meet the carbon neutrality goals for a green data centre super-computing facility. Fujitsu designs its own microarchitecture which is a key factor for CPU performance and power efficiency. This technology made it possible for the supercomputer Fugaku to achieve the world's highest levels of performance and energy efficiency. Fujitsu's MONAKA is aligned to enable next gen AI application development ecosystem through high end energy efficient compute.
