Nvidia's CUDA is closed-source, whereas AMD ROCm is open source. There is open-source software built on top of the closed-source CUDA, for instance RAPIDS. CUDA is able run on consumer GPUs, whereas ROCm support is mostly offered for professional hardware such as AMD Instinct and AMD Radeon Pro.
Nvidia launched CUDA in 2006, a software development kit (SDK) and application programming interface (API) that allows using the programming language C to code algorithms for execution on GeForce 8 series and later GPUs. ROCm, launched in 2016, is AMD's open-source response to CUDA. It is, as of 2022, on par with CUDA with regards to features ...
GPUOpen HIP: A thin abstraction layer on top of CUDA and ROCm intended for AMD and Nvidia GPUs. Has a conversion tool for importing CUDA C++ source. Supports CUDA 4.0 plus C++11 and float16. ZLUDA is a drop-in replacement for CUDA on AMD GPUs and formerly Intel GPUs with near-native performance. [32]
CuPy supports Nvidia CUDA GPU platform, and AMD ROCm GPU platform starting in v9.0. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] CuPy has been initially developed as a backend of Chainer deep learning framework, and later established as an independent project in 2017.
Codeplay has released an open-source layer [23] [24] [25] to allow oneAPI and SYCL/DPC++ to run atop Nvidia GPUs via CUDA. University of Heidelberg has developed a SYCL/DPC++ implementation for both AMD and Nvidia GPUs. [26] Huawei released a DPC++ compiler for their Ascend AI Chipset [27]
In the table, I've broken down the annual revenue growth rates for each of AMD's and Nvidia's respective data center businesses: Category. Q3 2023. Q4 2023. Q1 2024. Q2 2024. Q3 2024.

ROCm HIP targets Nvidia GPU, AMD GPU, and x86 CPU. HIP is a lower-level API that closely resembles CUDA's APIs. [47] For example, AMD released a tool called HIPIFY that can automatically translate CUDA code to HIP. [48] Therefore, many of the points mentioned in the comparison between CUDA and SYCL also apply to the comparison between HIP and ...
