Google Shifts Entire Infrastructure to Arm Architecture with AI-Assisted Migration
Google has revealed it is transitioning its entire internal infrastructure to Arm architecture, leveraging its custom Axion silicon and AI tool CogniPort. The migration, which includes major services like YouTube and Gmail, aims to enhance performance and energy efficiency across its data centers.
Massive Migration Underway
Google is reportedly porting all its internal workloads to the Arm architecture, with sources indicating that approximately 30,000 production packages have already been migrated. According to a recent preprint paper and company blog post, this effort enables services like YouTube, Gmail, and BigQuery to run on both x86 processors and Google’s proprietary Axion Arm CPUs. The scale of this initiative highlights a strategic shift toward heterogeneous computing environments within one of the world’s largest cloud infrastructures.
