VMware vSphere 7 mit Bitfusion-Technik:…

VMware vSphere 7 soll es Unternehmen ermöglichen, eine elastische Infrastruktur für KI- und ML-Anwendungen (künstliche Intelligenz, maschinelles Lernen) aufzubauen. KI und ML – insbesondere Trainingsläufe für Deep Learning – erfordern eine Hardwarebeschleunigung für die umfangreichen, komplexen Berechnungen. Die Bitfusion-Funktionalität in vSphere 7 soll es hier ermöglichen, GPU-Ressourcen (Grafikprozessoren) zu bündeln und im RZ als Shared Pool zu betreiben. Dadurch könne ein Unternehmen GPUs effizient und schnell über das Netzwerk für Datenwissenschaftler und ML-Entwickler bereitstellen.
