Qualcomm Technologies’ platform approach, spanning advanced compute, high-performance connectivity, and system-level optimization, is designed to deliver substantial performance per watt and help reduce total cost of ownership at scale.

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.  and Meta  announced a strategic multi-generation collaboration for Qualcomm Technologies to be a supplier for data center CPUs for Meta. Qualcomm Technologies’ data center CPU, the Qualcomm Dragonfly™ C1000, is planned to power Meta’s next-generation server fleet, underscoring the growing importance of high-performance, power-efficient compute in large-scale scale-out environments.

Qualcomm Technologies’ solutions will be in production starting in the second half of 2028 and future data center capacity expansions. Qualcomm Technologies’ platform approach, spanning advanced compute, high-performance connectivity, and system-level optimization, is designed to deliver substantial performance per watt and help reduce total cost of ownership at scale.

“We designed our data center CPU to deliver leading performance per core and a breakthrough in power efficiency for large scale data center deployments, and this multi-generation agreement with Meta is a significant validation of that approach. We’re thrilled to build on our partnership with Meta, expanding from devices to data center. And this is just the beginning.”

Cristiano Amon, President and CEO, Qualcomm Incorporated
