Huawei Ascend is a unified platform for AI and ML
Huawei is the first and only company to have single-brand solutions across the entire AI cycle, from machine learning systems to edge servers and end devices such as surveillance cameras. From top to bottom, you have a single vendor, a single hardware architecture, your own operating system, and a single software framework.
The field of artificial intelligence today looks so promising that every major chip manufacturer has already released their solutions, or they will do it in the near ...
Rapid test of the Palit GeForce RTX 2080 Super video card in machine learning tasks
If you choose a GPU not only for gaming, but also for scientific calculations, you are interested in seeing a video card with tensor cores and modern 8GB GDDR6 memory. Thanks to FP16 support, in some Teslas it shows a multiple speed advantage even over Tesla
Nvidia is planning to update its graphics cards, transferring the entire product line to the new GDDR6 memory. In our Geforce GTX 1660 Super review, we already said that in Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence tasks, VRAM bandwidth is ...
Palit GeForce GTX 1660 Super review: testing a novelty in computing and machine learning
The new series of video cards GTX 1660 Super is interesting, first of all, because of the high bandwidth GDDR6 memory. This is exactly what you need for machine learning tasks and work in Tensorflow. At a minimum, you can build your own Google Colab counterpart in a Mini-ITX package.
In the fall of 2018, Nvidia released a line of RTX graphics cards based on chips codenamed Turing, which have built-in tensor and RT cores. The community of enthusiasts using conventional gaming graphics cards ...
Mellanox data center telemetry technologies for detecting network and storage problems
Because the network allows you to access applications, exchange data, and connect to storage, good streaming telemetry can even detect application errors. Mellanox has decided that its ASICS are good enough to tell you the whole truth about where, when, and why packets are dropped on the network.
Let's talk about network streaming telemetry and why you need it. If you've ever had problems trying to recreate a network problem, or you've had a hard time understanding why you were experiencing ...
How SmartNIC cards change the concept of server security in particular and the cloud in general
SmartNIC uses DMA speed for fast memory access, works in an isolated environment, all calculations take place on the ARM processor of the network card, and all server computing resources remain available to users and applications.
In an era when cyber threats lurk around every corner, with increasing attacks on data centers, security is evaluated for each machine that stores user data. However, the presence of malware in the operating system blocks most software protection tools. In addition ...
What is SmartNIC and why network cards for servers have become smarter
The concept of SmartNIC goes beyond a simple connection and already implies that the network card itself, and not the server's Central processor or storage, processes not only network traffic and protocols, but even some calculations of the application itself. In other words, SmartNIC takes care of offloading everything related to communications, freeing up processor resources for useful power. Cool, right?
While the world around us is getting smarter every day, consumer technologies are ...
Microsoft Project Corsica Asic processor: 100-Gigabit compression for cloud environments
For services like Microsoft Azure, reducing stored data by a few percent means saving millions of dollars. Microsoft announced the Corsica project this week as the culmination of the development of its zipline compression standard. As you might guess, this standard provides compression and encryption, reducing the size of files and encrypting them.
