Research Customer Success Stories

Arista Networks and Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC)

 

The Ultra Ethernet Consortium brings together companies for industry-wide cooperation on interoperability and to build a complete Ethernet based communication stack architecture, that best matches the rapidly evolving AI/HPC workloads at scale and provides for best-in-class functionality, performance, interoperability and TCO as well as developer and end-user friendliness.

 

Arista Ethernet-based AI Networking

The computational demands of AI applications are significant and push the limits of our digital infrastructure. To optimise AI workloads and reduce Job-Completion Time (JCT), we not only need more powerful CPUs, GPUs and TPUs but also smarter, faster networks.

As a steering member of the Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC), Arista is proud to be at the forefront of building the best networking infrastructure for resilient AI clusters, leveraging its industry-leading, standards-based Extensible Operating System (EOS®) software stack and Arista Etherlink™ platforms to facilitate the next technological evolution.
