Google Cloud and NVIDIA Take Vera Rubin Infrastructure to General Availability

Google Cloud and NVIDIA announced general availability of A5X instances built on NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 systems, paired with ConnectX-9 SuperNICs, Google's Virgo Network, and fourth-generation liquid cooling. The instances arrive next month with planned expansion into Europe, and are positioned as an integrated platform spanning training, inference, and large-scale reinforcement learning. It's a direct play for customers running post-training and RL workloads that have outgrown conventional GPU clusters.
