This is really interesting, though it seems like some kind of container play primarily to simplify GPU workloads anywhere - local and cloud.
There is little mention of their plans to build their own GPU data centre - though they must already have one for their cloud gaming offering.
NVidia could likely destroy AWS and Azure for GPU instances since they have GPU HW for cost price. I wonder how they are going to walk the fine line between cloud GPUs and cannibalising their own hardware sales - this feels like a dipping their toes in the water. I expect pricing to be only slightly below AWS.
