ORACLE CLOUD BECOMES THE FIRST HYPERSCALER OUTSIDE GOOGLE TO OFFER TPUS, WITH CAPACITY FROM 2027

Summary from the TLDR Hardware newsletter

TPU capacity will be deployed in OCI's liquid-cooled data centers, tied in through Oracle's Acceleron SmartNIC fabric. Google says its eighth-generation TPU delivers up to 12.6 PFLOPS of FP4 per chip at up to 2x performance per watt, sustains over 97% goodput with optical circuit switching, and cuts network hops by over 50% for up to 80% better low-latency serving performance per dollar.
