Building AI/ML Networks with Cisco Silicon One
Cisco News, Friday, May 26,2023
It's evident from the amount of news coverage, articles, blogs, and water cooler stories that artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are changing our society in fundamental ways-and that the industry is evolving quickly to try to keep up with the explosive growth.
Unfortunately, the network that we've used in the past for high-performance computing (HPC) cannot scale to meet the demands of AI/ML. As an industry, we must evolve our thinking and build a scalable and sustainable network for AI/ML.
Today, the industry is fragmented between AI/ML networks built around four unique architectures: InfiniBand, Ethernet, telemetry assisted Ethernet, and fully scheduled fabrics.
