D-Matrix: Acquisition Of GigaIO Data Center Business To Expand Rack-Scale AI Capabilities

By Amit Chowdhry ● Yesterday at 3:00 PM

d-Matrix, a company focused on low-latency AI inference compute for data centers, announced it has acquired the data center business of GigaIO, a systems engineering organization known for its expertise in rack-scale infrastructure and high-performance interconnects.

The acquisition builds on a collaboration that began in 2025 and is designed to strengthen d-Matrix’s ability to deliver system-level AI infrastructure. With the deal, the company expands its end-to-end platform, which includes Corsair inference accelerators, JetStream networking, Aviator software, and the SquadRack rack-scale reference architecture developed with Broadcom and Arista.

As part of the transaction, GigaIO will continue operating independently with a focus on edge computing, while d-Matrix takes ownership of key data center technologies, including SuperNODE and the FabreX PCIe-based memory fabric. These assets are expected to enhance d-Matrix’s roadmap for scalable AI inference infrastructure.

The move also brings a team of systems engineers based in Carlsbad, California, into d-Matrix, establishing a new engineering hub and expanding its global footprint to six innovation centers across North America, Europe, and Asia.

The acquisition reflects a broader shift in AI infrastructure, where inference workloads are increasingly distributed across CPUs, GPUs, and specialized accelerators. This shift requires efficient, low-latency data movement across chips, nodes, racks, and entire data centers.

KEY QUOTE:

“Inference is bigger than any one chip. It’s now a systems problem. To keep up with surging AI demand, frontier labs and other power users are dividing workloads into smaller tasks, disaggregated across CPUs, GPUs, and inference accelerators, with each processor handling a different part of the problem. That means data must move efficiently across chips, nodes, racks, and entire data centers in real time. This acquisition accelerates our ability to deliver infrastructure built for this new reality, where low latency, efficiency, and scale all matter at once.”
