Marvell Technology announced an expanded five-year agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to supply advanced semiconductor solutions for data centers. The collaboration focuses on integrating Marvell’s silicon products, including custom AI processors, PCIe retimers, and Ethernet switching silicon, into AWS infrastructure to enhance cloud and AI service capabilities.
The partnership supports AWS in advancing data center compute, networking, and storage solutions with Marvell’s expertise in semiconductors. Specific technologies covered include optical and active electrical cable DSPs, data center interconnect optical modules, and other critical components designed to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs. Marvell’s contributions are tailored to help AWS and its customers achieve lower total cost of ownership and faster product development cycles.
Additionally, Marvell is deepening its use of AWS cloud infrastructure for electronic design automation (EDA). This approach utilizes AWS’s scalable compute resources to address the intensive demands of advanced silicon design. By leveraging cloud-based solutions, Marvell accelerates product design timelines and equips its engineering teams with the flexibility to handle dynamic workloads, further cementing its role in shaping the future of data infrastructure.
