Groq

About

Groq designs the Language Processing Unit (LPU), a novel processor architecture specifically engineered for high-performance, low-latency language model inference. Pioneered in 2016, the LPU fundamentally differs from traditional GPUs by utilizing a deterministic, software-defined dataflow architecture to maximize throughput and predictability for demanding AI workloads. Groq offers its LPU hardware alongside GroqCloud, a fully managed inference platform, serving customers requiring real-time responses from large language models in applications like generative AI and natural language processing.
