Ampere Computing

Ampere Computing is a Santa Clara, California semiconductor company founded in 2018 by Renee James and now part of the SoftBank Group. It designs Arm-based Cloud Native Processors — the Ampere Altra and Altra Max families (up to 128 cores) and the flagship AmpereOne family (up to 192 single-threaded cores) — for cloud, AI inference and edge deployments. Alongside the silicon it ships a software stack: Ampere Optimized AI frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX Runtime, llama.cpp, Ollama) distributed as first-party container images, tuned GCC/glibc/binutils builds, performance and porting tooling, and an arm64 developer community. Ampere publishes no public developer API — its developer program is a hardware, tooling and porting program rather than an API program.

Ampere Computing is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Semiconductors, Processors, Cloud Infrastructure, and Arm64.

Ampere Computing’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, signup flow, and 13 more developer resources.

  detail: Ampere runs an Azure API Management gateway at api.amperecomputing.com, but its developer portal publicly lists
    only Azure's stock sample "Echo API" and the default Starter/Unlimited products — there is no Ampere API on it, and the
    Developer Center at /developers is a hardware porting, tooling and benchmarking programme with no API reference, spec,
    SDK or key issuance anywhere in the 1,075-URL sitemap.
