Apple Is Secretly Building an AI Server Rack Full of M-Series Ultra Chips

Apple is quietly working on something that would mark a significant departure from its usual playbook: a dedicated server designed for enterprise AI workloads, reportedly packed with multiple M-series Ultra chips. According to a report from Ars Technica, the machine is targeting a 2029 launch, which would make it Apple's first proper enterprise server in decades.

Key Takeaways

  • Apple is reportedly building a rack server with multiple M-series Ultra chips, targeting a 2029 release
  • This would be Apple's first enterprise server since the Xserve was discontinued in 2011
  • The M3 Ultra chip features 192GB unified memory, a 32-core CPU, and an 80-core GPU
  • The design could appeal to enterprises with data sovereignty concerns who want on-premises AI inference
