Hi, (RTGWG Chair hats off)
We're going to have a side meeting on "Advancing Technologies for AI/ML Clusters and High Performance Data Centers". The meeting will be held on *Monday July 24, 15:30 - 17:00 in Continental 2-3*. (Please refer to the side meeting wiki: IETF 117 Side Meeting Signups | IETF Community Wiki <https://wiki.ietf.org/en/meeting/117/sidemeetings>) In recent times, there has been a significant rise in the popularity of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, leading to the design of data centers specifically tailored for large-scale AI model training. These advanced networks, dedicated to High-Performance Computing, AI, and ML, demand deterministic high-bandwidth and low latency connections between numerous processing nodes. They also impose unique requirements for network topologies and interconnecting technologies. RFC 7938, Use of BGP for Routing in Large-Scale Data Centers, was published several years ago. In this ever-evolving landscape of data centers, it is crucial that we stay up-to-date with the latest technologies deployed within them. The primary goals of this meeting will be to identify challenges and requirements associated with these advanced data center networks, as well as to explore new research and standardization opportunities. It is important to note that this meeting will be a brainstorming session and open-ended in nature. The intention is not to arrive at immediate conclusions or define specific tasks but rather to foster discussions that stimulate innovative thinking. The meeting materials including agenda and the Zoom link are available in this GitHub repository: Yingzhen-ietf/AIDC-IETF117: This repository is for all the meeting materials.
