AI server designs are being impacted by an issue that becomes increasingly worse as GPUs scale to meet demands of AI workloads. The issue: noisy neighbors! Scorpio P-Series Fabric Switches – the industry’s first PCIe 6 fabric switch – are architected for mixed traffic AI head-node traffic connectivity (GPU-to-CPU/NIC/SSD). Let’s take a closer look at the problem of noisy neighbors…
