  • The Birth of Ultra Ethernet (UET) and Next-Generation AI Fabric

    When training AI models, networks are no longer mere pipes. In a collective communication environment where tens of thousands of GPUs exchange data, a single packet loss becomes a critical bottleneck that delays the entire Joint Training Completion (JCT). At last year’s HPE Discover Barcelona, HPE and VIAVI Solutions presented a remarkable demonstration signaling a fundamental transformation of Ethernet…

  • What is HPE's direction in Ultra Ethernet (UEC)?

    The Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC), officially launched in July 2023, was formed to develop Ethernet specifications that enhance AI and High Performance Computing (HPC) environments with a new level of performance, scalability, and interoperability. Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is one of the original founders of the UEC and contributed a significant portion of the foundational IP included in UEC Specification Revision 1.0. Today, UEC IT…
