Learn about PANIC, a groundbreaking NIC architecture designed for multi-tenant environments, in this 19-minute technical presentation from UT Austin graduate student Jiaxin Lin at the Open Compute Project. Explore how PANIC addresses performance crosstalk issues in multi-tenant environments by implementing innovative hardware blocks and data structures that maintain performance isolation between tenants. Discover the architecture's core components, including a scalable switching interconnect for connecting compute engines and a sophisticated hardware scheduler that enforces isolation policies and manages resource allocation. Examine the practical implementation of this 100G hardware prototype integrated with Corundum, and learn about its open-source availability for future SmartNIC architecture development. Originally published at OSDI'20, this research-oriented project demonstrates significant advances in programmable NIC architectures for modern network infrastructure.
