NVIDIA y Mellanox anunciaron hoy que las compañías han alcanzado un acuerdo definitivo en virtud del cual NVIDIA adquirirá Mellanox. De conformidad con el acuerdo, NVIDIA adquirirá todas las acciones ordinarias emitidas y en circulación de Mellanox por $ 125 por acción en efectivo, lo que representa un valor total para la empresa de aproximadamente $ 6,9 mil millones. Una vez que se complete, se espera que la combinación se acreciente de inmediato del margen bruto no GAAP de NVIDIA, las ganancias por acción no GAAP y el flujo de efectivo libre. La adquisición unirá a dos de las compañías líderes mundiales en computación de alto rendimiento (HPC). En conjunto, la plataforma informática de NVIDIA y las interconexiones de Mellanox alimentan a más de 250 de las supercomputadoras TOP500 del mundo y tienen como clientes a todos los principales proveedores de servicios de nube y fabricantes de computadoras. La intensidad de datos y cómputo de las cargas de trabajo modernas en IA, computación científica y análisis de datos está creciendo de manera exponencial y ha generado enormes demandas de rendimiento en hiperescala y centros de datos empresariales. Mientras la demanda de computación está aumentando, los avances en el rendimiento de la CPU se están desacelerando a medida que la ley de Moore ha terminado. Esto ha llevado a la adopción de la computación acelerada con las GPU NVIDIA y las soluciones de redes inteligentes de Mellanox.
