@packyM @meter SaaS ui with natural language interface works great for campus networking. See @githedgehog for mass scale AI cloud networks.

@MichaelDell @Dell @DellTech @DellServers @JClarkeatDell @DellTechPartner @DellSmbUS @BillScannell2 @JohnByrneCSO Hedgehog AI network and Dell Enterprise SONiC make it possible to repatriate. Hedgehog makes a Dell private cloud look and feel like public cloud with services like Virtual Private Cloud and Transit Gateway.

Happy holidays from
the Hedgehog team. Use the break to play with our virtual lab for cloud networking. https://t.co/EzpjQ7Cd1d

@engineering Well done. Love your cost optimization. @githedgehog can help you further reduce cost with open networking for your on-prem GPU supercompute clusters.

OK Seattle - #FoundersBash 2023 registration is open!

Last year we had 400 founders in the bldg to chill w @djtopspin vibes, good food and zero content or salespeople :-)

Remember, FOUNDERS ONLY. We're checking.

@charlesfitz Just trying to get a quote from co-lo is a major pain in the ass. Convenience matters. A LOT.

3. There is going to be a massive migration of GenAI/LLM activity from 3rd party models (like OpenAI) to on-prem proprietary models for nearly all enterprise use cases.

[Marc Austin @marcraustin]

@gdibner Hedgehog makes AI infrastructure possible for on-prem proprietary models.

[Marc Austin @marcraustin]

@githedgehog Open Network Fabric makes Azure best practices available to anyone wanting to run the own infrastructure for better performance and cost.

[Tim Zaman @timzaman]

[5/7] Fabric! A thin blue cable is optical/AOC (expensive) and a thick black one is copper/DAC (cheap). DAC only works short range ~5m.

The data NICs flow into an underpopulated Arista 6070CX switch, and out-of-rack with 8x AOCs.

gpu-gpu is all AOC, maybe to a core switch.

[Marc Austin @marcraustin]

@timzaman Green if you don't care about ever catching a salmon again on that river. Was hoping to see immersion cooling here at least for lower power consumption.

[Tim Zaman @timzaman]

Azure/Microsoft released pics of OpenAI's next-gen AI datacenter.

This supposedly powers [Chat]GPT* training (inference?). From the pics we can infer most components, power, network/ib topology, layouts, vendors and more.

A thread 🧵[1/7]

[Marc Austin @marcraustin]

@timzaman This switch should be running SONiC like the rest of Azure. @githedgehog provides an open network fabric on SONiC if you want to run a similar fabric for your own AI workload.

[Marc Austin @marcraustin]

@kirbywinfield standing calls are a good idea
