ServeTheHome | This Changes Networking and Storage Intel IPU Hands-on @ServeTheHomeVideo | Uploaded June 2022 | Updated October 2024, 12 minutes ago.
We take a look at the Intel Big Spring Canyon IPU that combines a Stratix 10 FPGA and an Intel Xeon D-1612 processor to completely offload NVMeoF with RDMA and simply present NVMe storage to servers. DPUs and IPUs are going to be a big deal in the data center, and in this demo we get to show you why.
