OCP Collaborates with UEC to improve Ethernet performance for next-generation AI clusters and HPC deployments. UEC plans to develop enhancements to Ethernet, and the OCP has an active Community developing sustainable large-scale computational infrastructure for AI and HPC with Ethernet. Together, the OCP and UEC expect to collaborate on the integration of enhanced Ethernet for the next generation of OCP Community-delivered AI clusters providing the low latency connectivity needed for backend AI cluster fabrics.
UEC’s mission is to deliver an Ethernet based open, interoperable, high performance, full-communications stack architecture to meet the growing network demands of AI & HPC at scale. https://ultraethernet.org/
