The AI data center journey is just starting and expected to evolve dramatically with the technology. There is an urgent need to evaluate new data center architectures to ensure they are future-proof and optimized for maximum efficiency, to ensure a return on AI network investments. A new Spirent infographic compiles the latest AI data center market trends, architecture details, dynamic AI fabric requirements and new testing strategies and solutions required for ensuring AI Ethernet fabric performance and resiliency.

Innovative testing approaches in preparation for the AI revolution

The scale of artificial intelligence (AI) applications is skyrocketing with the number of model parameters growing at a blistering 1000x pace every 3 years. The growing complexity and size of AI applications is driving a need for increasing numbers of AI accelerators, which in turn dictate the type and scale of the networking fabric required to interconnect the accelerators with each other and compute and memory resources. As AI applications move from small apps with hundreds of AI accelerators to large apps that require tens of thousands of AI accelerators, the networking architectures grow more complex. As we grow to over ten thousand accelerators, a data center scale architecture is required with a routable fabric and AI spine.
