GTC 2020—NVIDIA today announced availability of the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX developer kit with cloud-native support — and the extension of this support to the entire NVIDIA Jetson edge computing lineup for autonomous machines. The Jetson Xavier NX module is the ideal platform to accelerate AI applications, delivering greater than 10x higher performance compared to its widely adopted predecessor, Jetson TX2. Using cloud-native technologies, developers can take advantage of the module's high AI and compute performance in its credit card-sized form factor to drive innovation and deploy AI at scale.

With support for cloud-native technologies now available across the NVIDIA Jetson lineup, manufacturers of intelligent machines and developers of AI applications can build and deploy high-quality, software-defined features on embedded and edge devices targeting robotics, smart cities, healthcare, industrial IoT and more. Cloud-native support helps manufacturers and developers implement frequent improvements, improve accuracy and use the latest features with Jetson-based AI edge devices. And developers can quickly deploy new algorithms throughout an application's lifecycle, at scale, while minimizing downtime.
