Kalray, founded in 2008, is a France-based fabless semiconductor company, championing the new generation of processors designed for handling massive data flows, particularly in AI applications. With the slogan, "Leading Processing Acceleration Solutions," Kalray leverages its patented "manycore" architecture in its MPPA® intelligent processors, also known as DPU or xPU. This technology excels in processing multiple data streams in parallel, optimizing workload performance, infrastructure utilization, and reducing power consumption.
Kalray's comprehensive offerings include hardware and software acceleration solutions, alongside co-development and custom design services tailored for high-growth sectors like data centers, telecoms, and defense. This innovative approach is backed by prominent investors such as NXP Semiconductors, CEA, Safran, and Bpifrance.
