AWS Taps Nvidia NVSwitch For Liquid Cooled, Rackscale GPU Nodes
Since the advent of distributed computing, there has been a tension between the tight coherency of memory and its compute within a node – the base level of a unit of compute – and the looser coherency over the network across those nodes. …

The NVSwitch Fabric That Is The Hub Of The DGX H100 SuperPOD
Normally, when we look at a system, we think from the compute engines at a very fine detail and then work our way out across the intricacies of the nodes and then the interconnect and software stack that scales it across the nodes into a distributed computing platform. …

Inside Nvidia’s NVSwitch GPU Interconnect
At the GPU Technology Conference last week, we told you all about the new NVSwitch memory fabric interconnect that Nvidia has created to link multiple “Volta” GPUs together and that is at the heart of the DGX-2 system that the company has created to demonstrate its capabilities and to use on its internal Saturn V supercomputer at some point in the future. …

Copper Wires Have Already Failed Clustered AI Systems
It has become a well known fact these days that the switches that are used to interconnect distributed systems are not the most expensive part of that network, but rather it is the optical transceivers and fiber optic cables that comprise the bulk of the cost. …
