You Don't Have To Wait For Ultra Ethernet To Goose AI Performance By TPM
The Next Platform, Wednesday, October 25,2023
It is always interesting to us when technologies developed in one sector of the IT market get adapted and cross-pollinate in interesting ways to solve problems in another sector of the IT market. It is one of the founding principles of this publication, in fact.
This has just happened as DriveNets, a maker of distributed core routing software that runs on Broadcom ASICs and that works at Layer 3 in the network protocol stack, has created a Layer 2 switching variant of DriveNets Network Operating System (DNOS) aimed explicitly at providing a performance boost for AI training and inference workloads atop Ethernet.
