Next Generation Cloud Network Infrastructure - The Open Way

Learn about next-generation cloud network infrastructure through this 13-minute conference talk that explores how distributed and heterogeneous computing resources are forming through high-bandwidth networks. Discover how to effectively combine accelerators with different architectures located in various positions to support inferencing, training, and other computational tasks. Explore CMCC's open source initiative under the OpenInfra Foundation called "Computing Force Network" (CFN), which aims to enable diverse cloud-network infrastructures to collaborate globally. Understand the background and history of the CFN Working Group, examine the major technical areas it covers, and review the tools delivered across two releases that support heterogeneous training and inference. Gain insights into the group's most recent progress, future development plans, and learn how to participate in this collaborative effort to advance open cloud network infrastructure.
