Microsoft and Arm announce partnership to help developers easily target Arm-based AI devices

Since Arm-based silicon can enable SoCs that consume less power, generate minimal heat, and eliminate the need for loud cooling fans, they are ideal for edge AI devices like intelligent computer-vision-enabled cameras, connected vehicles, AI gateways, and intelligent appliances. Microsoft today announced a partnership with Arm to deploy an integrated Azure-based toolchain targeting Arm-based silicon and delivering a unified and streamlined AI experience for developers. This partnership will allow developers to easily target a broad range of Arm-based silicon in AI-enabled devices. Microsoft today also announced that it is working with silicon ecosystem to launch an Azure- Ready Silicon program.

This program is a forward-looking effort to inform future silicon requirements for the device certification program, ensuring device builders have diverse and differentiated silicon that easily runs on Azure and is readily available.
