To train the latest AI models, cloud-service providers are investing in large accelerated-compute clusters. AI training, however, presents different requirements for network architects than standard compute instances. Proprietary interconnects have dominated these clusters as the most-performant solutions. Here, we examine an alternative fabric architecture built around ubiquitous Ethernet technology.
