[Abstract]

Modern high-performance computer systems (e.g., datacenters, supercomputers) are deploying an increasing number of high-performance devices (e.g., GPU, SSD, NPU, NIC) per server to maximize the target application’s overall performance, while minimizing the system’s total cost of operation. To achieve the goal, the next-generation datacenters aim to deploy a newly-designed data processing unit (DPU) (a.k.a., IPU, xPU, smart-Xdevice) which is specially designed to orchestrate various devices in the most efficient way. In this talk, I will first introduce key challenges in developing the next-generation servers. Next, I will explain what ideal DPUs should look like and how they should perform. Finally, I will present how the state-of-the-art DPUs provided by MangoBoost can achieve the design goals.
