[SPONSORED GUEST CONTENT] Scheduled Ethernet is emerging as a viable alternative to InfiniBand for AI networking. Why? Because of its ability to offer comparable performance but with greater flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
This Reference Architecture highlights the key findings and demonstrated scalability when running SAS® 9.4 using the Mixed Analytics Workload running on HPE Superdome Flex 280 Server and HPE Primera Storage. These results demonstrate that the combination of the HPE Superdome Flex 280 Server and HPE Primera Storage with SAS 9.4 delivers up to 20GB/s of sustained throughput, up to a 2x performance improvement from the previous server and storage generation testing.
If it’s not too late to take stock of 2025 in HPC-AI, then holding up the Supercomputing Conference as a trends test site might be a good approach. I’m no perennial* but I’ve been to about half of the 37 SCs , including all 11 since 2015. And looking back at that year’s conference, SC15, […]
