Tech Update: Ethernet vs Infiniband for GPU clusters

Wondering whether to use Infiniband or Ethernet for building large-scale clustered GPU environments?

Ram Velaga, SVP & GM, Switching and Routing from Broadcom explains: * Why Ethernet is the best technology for your needs, whether you're building a thousand GPU cluster or something larger. It's proven over multiple decades to meet new requirements as they arise. * How Ethernet has evolved to meet the requirements for clustered GPUs, including low latencies, controlling tail latency, and building large topologies without a lot of idle time on the GPUs. * The advantages of Ethernet, including its ubiquity, the scale of its market, the rapid innovation it drives, and the economies of scale it offers.
