Podcast EP337: The Importance of Network Communications to Enable AI Workloads with Abhinav Kothiata
Daniel is joined by Abhinav Kothiata, a principal product manager for the Synopsys Ethernet IP portfolio. He has over 12 years of experience across engineering and product management, spanning SoC design, functional verification, and building wireless connectivity platforms and IoT products. He also holds two patents in circuit design.
Dan discusses the evolution of Ethernet standards with Abhinav, who explains that traditional Ethernet is not well-suited for distributed AI workloads. In this informative discussion, Abhinav describes new and emerging interface protocols better suited to AI environments.
He discusses what is needed to achieve the required scale-up. Abhinav explains that the network must “disappear” by delivering very low latency, deterministic performance. The capabilities of ESUN and UALink are explored in detail. Abhinav also explains what the future will require and the role of the IP provider.
