For Efficient, Sustainable AI at Scale, Consider a Processor Spectrum with Various Performance Characteristics - IDC Research
IDC opinion based on research of IT Directors, executives, or C-level decision makers on workload performance on accelerated processors vs. processors with GPUs.
IDC set out to establish some of the metrics that can inform a decision process for when GPUs are needed and when they are not needed via a survey of 377 respondents and a qualitative study based on nine in-depth interviews (see the Methodology section for more details). This white paper delves into the study's results.
Rethinking AI Infrastructure: The Strategic Role of Accelerated CPUs - IDC Research
