Nvidia's Pascal GPUs reach the cloud via IBM and Nimbix

Google, Amazon and Facebook can magically recognize images and voices, thanks to superfast servers equipped with GPUs in their mega data centers.

But not all companies can afford that level of resources for deep learning, so they turn to cloud services, where servers in remote data centers do the heavy lifting.

Microsoft has made such cloud services trendy with Azure and is one of the few companies offering remote servers with GPUs, which excel in machine-learning tasks. But Azure uses older Nvidia GPUs, and it now has competition from Nimbix, which offers a cloud service with faster GPUs based on the Nvidia's latest Pascal architecture.
