The business behind the name

Huang's biography situates NVIDIA in the development of graphics processing and the later expansion of those capabilities into other computing workloads. The company story concerns a platform, not only an individual component: hardware works with software tools and the developers who use them.

How the offering fits together

A computing platform becomes useful when another organization can build with it. NVIDIA's products therefore combine processors, systems and software resources for different environments. Graphics and AI workloads are related through the use of accelerated computation, while each has its own application requirements. The company's technical and product documentation supplies the reference for specific capabilities.
