TL;DR
A one-chip-like standpoint for understanding how datacenter infrastructures are evolving to support AI workloads is introduced, highlighting how one-chip-like datacenter extends chip-level semantics to rack scale by combining compute express link fabrics with hardware mechanisms, thereby stabilizing latency variability along traversal paths.
It is argued that scale-up fabrics should become software-defined, as programmable switches did for Ethernet over the past decade, and that the switch is the natural place to begin.
A new class of highly scalable, effective, and resilient network-native services is made possible by Synapse, which removes the main storage bottleneck in contemporary data centers by offloading the entire telemetry capture process to the network fabric.

Falling launch costs, together with advances in radiation-tolerant electronics, optical inter-satellite links, and high-efficiency power and thermal systems, have made Space Data Centers (SDCs) an increasingly credible proposition, whether for deep-space autonomy, on-board processing of Earth-observation data, or as or...

Rapidly growing AI workloads are driving large investments in AI datacenters. This survey classifies industrial AI accelerators into four architectural categories and compares their compute and memory organizations. It examines how node-, rack-, and pod-scale interconnects support collective communication, and traces a...
Data-center workloads driven by artificial-intelligence training, cloud-native services, and distributed microservices have outgrown the three-tier network designs that once served enterprise applications. Hierarchical aggregation with the Spanning Tree Protocol wastes capacity on blocked links and introduces variable...

Large-model parameters have grown beyond the capacity of a single xPU, dispersing across multiple xPUs spanning distinct host domains, where xPU-to-xPU communication dominates overall system efficiency. Existing scale-up interconnect remains inadequate: network-based solutions built on Ethernet--such as RoCE (RDMA over...
