Qualcomm has officially announced that it will provide CPUs for Humain Data Centers there in Saudi Arabia. The initiative marks the company’s return to the segment after an attempt that did not work between 2017 and 2019, with Centriq processors.

This time Qualcomm reduces its risks through partnerships. Humain AI is a company funded by the Arab government’s investment fund for the development of AI and cloud infrastructure in the country. As part of the contract to offer processors to the project, Qualcomm will also establish an installation for the creation of semiconductor projects in the country.

This does not mean a return from Centriq, however. The company has already announced that it will work with Snapdragon and Dragonwing products on Humain AI’s data centers. In the dissemination of their partnership, the two companies point out that their work will serve to “offer both the government and business organizations access to CPUS infrastructure and high performance and energy efficiency, and cloud -end services”.

Qualcomm’s return to data centers is not a surprise

While it was not sure that Qualcomm would once again offer processors to data centers, many speculated that this would eventually happen due to the acquisition of Nuvia.

Readers who accompanied the friction between Qualcomm and Arm should remember that Nuvia was a startup focused on developing ARM -based processors for data centers and servers. Thus, when the owner of Snapdragon acquired the company, it was expected that she would take advantage of the technology to make her return to the segment.

However, Qualcomm first used its new assets for the creation of the Oryon nuclei, used in its Snapdragon X processors, for Windows Notebooks based on ARM. And now we see that the company’s plans for its acquisition would not stop there.
