REQUEST TPU QUOTA View DocumentationAccelerated Machine Learning
Machine learning (ML) has the power to greatly simplify our lives. Improvements in computer vision and natural language processing help all of us interact more naturally with technology. Businesses rely on ML to strengthen network security and reduce fraud. Advances in medical imaging enabled by ML can increase the accuracy of medical diagnoses and expand access to care, ultimately saving lives.
Speed Up Machine Learning Workloads
These revolutionary Cloud TPUs were designed to accelerate machine learning workloads with TensorFlow. Each Cloud TPU provides up to 180 teraflops of performance, providing the computational power to train and run cutting-edge machine learning models. Cloud TPUs can help you transform your business or create the next research breakthrough.
On-Demand ML Supercomputing
Access powerful machine learning accelerators on demand—no up-front capital investment required. Whether your task requires Cloud TPUs for hours or weeks, you can get exactly the machine learning acceleration you need without creating your own datacenter.
Easy On-Ramp to Cloud
Because TensorFlow is open-source, it’s easy to take ML workloads you’re already running in TensorFlow and try them on Cloud TPUs. Use TensorFlow’s high-level APIs to move models across CPUs, GPUs, and TPUs with minimal code changes. If you have image classification or machine translation needs, we provide a number of models that run well on TPUs - just bring your data, download a reference TensorFlow model and train.
