NVIDIA Confidential Computing to Help Expand Apple's Private Cloud Compute to Google Cloud
NVIDIA Blog4 days agoBusinessApple announced at WWDC that its Private Cloud Compute (PCC) will expand beyond its own data centers to Google Cloud, powered by NVIDIA GPUs with Confidential Computing. NVIDIA's hardware-level trusted execution environment enables confidential inference for Apple Foundation Models, co-built with Google, preserving user privacy even on third-party infrastructure. This three-way collaboration marks a significant industry validation of confidential computing for large-scale commercial AI deployments.
