ROCm is an open-source software stack of drivers, development tools, and APIs that enable GPU programming from low-level kernels to end-user applications. It is particularly well-suited to GPU-accelerated high-performance computing (HPC), AI, scientific computing, and computer-aided design (CAD).
ROCm is powered by HIP, a C++ runtime API and kernel language that lets developers write portable GPU code with an interface similar to NVIDIA CUDA™. It also supports OpenMP and OpenCL, and includes the compilers, debuggers, and libraries needed to build and run GPU workloads. ROCm integrates with machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow.
Important
A new open-source build platform for ROCm is under development at https://github.com/ROCm/TheRock, featuring a unified CMake build with bundled dependencies, Windows support, and more.
