Accelerated Ethernet Switching for AI and the Cloud

Data Centers have changed. APIs have replaced CLIs, and the scope and scale needed to manage cloud and AI-scale networks make simulation, automation, and validation a necessity. Consisting of Air, Cumulus Linux, and NetQ, the NVIDIA Spectrum Ethernet software stack is purpose-built for operational innovation. Combining network digital twins with powerful, simple automation and actionable visibility, Spectrum Ethernet accelerates Day 0, Day 1, and Day 2 ops for faster time to value and better business outcomes. In this session, learn how to leverage Air, Cumulus, and NetQ for your mission-critical cloud networking.

Modern cloud and telecommunications services require high-performance networks without compromising on openness for their mission-critical infrastructure and applications. Comcast will speak about how they leverage NVIDIA’s open Ethernet networking technologies for their Cloud Fabric services deployment, including Pure SONiC, Spectrum switches, and BlueField DPUs. Learn how to architect and build network topologies based on Spectrum Ethernet switches running the SONiC network operating system for innovative, open 400G networking, ready for the next generation of AI and HPC applications.

Computing is advancing at incredible speed, and cloud computing is becoming the norm for nearly every enterprise. Cloud computing allows companies to deploy applications faster, reduce operating costs, and rapidly scale resources to meet growing demand. However, not all clouds are created equal. Modern applications increasingly rely on accelerated computing as the underlying technology to deliver on the promise of machine learning and artificial intelligence. We'll discuss how organizations can build cloud computing infrastructures that are accelerated, efficient, and secure to power the next wave of applications.
