Technologies for coordinating disaggregated accelerator device resources
A compute device to manage workflow to disaggregated computing resources is provided. The compute device comprises a compute engine receive a workload processing request, the workload processing request defined by at least one request parameter, determine at least one accelerator device capable of processing a workload in accordance with the at least one request parameter, transmit a workload to the at least one accelerator device, receive a work product produced by the at least one accelerator device from the workload, and provide the work product to an application.
TECHNOLOGIES FOR SWITCHING NETWORK TRAFFIC IN A DATA CENTER
Technologies for switching network traffic include a network switch. The network switch includes one or more processors and communication circuitry coupled to the one or more processors. The communication circuitry is capable of switching network traffic of multiple link layer protocols. Additionally, the network switch includes one or more memory devices storing instructions that, when executed, cause the network switch to receive, with the communication circuitry through an optical connection, network traffic to be forwarded, and determine a link layer protocol of the received network traffic. The instructions additionally cause the network switch to forward the network traffic as a function of the determined link layer protocol. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
Disaggregated physical memory resources in a data center
Examples may include sleds for a rack in a data center including physical compute resources and memory for the physical compute resources. The memory can be disaggregated, or organized into near and far memory. A first sled can comprise the physical compute resources and a first set of physical memory resources while a second sled can comprise a second set of physical memory resources. The first set of physical memory resources can be coupled to the physical compute resources via a local interface while the second set of physical memory resources can be coupled to the physical compute resources via a fabric.
Technologies for adaptive processing of multiple buffers
Technologies for adaptive processing of multiple buffers is disclosed. A compute device may establish a buffer queue to which applications can submit buffers to be processed, such as by hashing the submitted buffers. The compute device monitors the buffer queue and determines an efficient way of processing the buffer queue based on the number of buffers present. The compute device may process the buffers serially with a single processor core of the compute device or may process the buffers in parallel with single-instruction, multiple data (SIMD) instructions. The compute device may determine which method to use based on a comparison of the throughput of serially processing the buffers as compared to parallel processing the buffers, which may depend on the number of buffers in the buffer queue.
Technologies for offloading acceleration task scheduling operations to accelerator sleds
Technologies for offloading acceleration task scheduling operations to accelerator sleds include a compute device to receive a request from a compute sled to accelerate the execution of a job, which includes a set of tasks. The compute device is also to analyze the request to generate metadata indicative of the tasks within the job, a type of acceleration associated with each task, and a data dependency between the tasks. Additionally the compute device is to send an availability request, including the metadata, to one or more micro-orchestrators of one or more accelerator sleds communicatively coupled to the compute device. The compute device is further to receive availability data from the one or more micro-orchestrators, indicative of which of the tasks the micro-orchestrator has accepted for acceleration on the associated accelerator sled. Additionally, the compute device is to assign the tasks to the one or more micro-orchestrators as a function of the availability data.
Out-of-band management techniques for networking fabrics
Out-of-band management techniques for networking fabrics are described. In an example embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a packet-switched network interface to deconstruct a packet received via an out-of-band management network and control circuitry to execute an out-of-band management agent, and the out-of-band management agent may be operative to identify a configuration command comprised in the received packet and control an optical circuit-switched network interface based on the configuration command. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Adjustable cable management bracket for modular electronic system
In one embodiment, a cable management bracket for managing cables connected to a modular electronic system mounted on a rack comprises a fixed portion and a rotatable portion extending from the fixed portion and comprising a support member for supporting the cables, the rotatable portion rotatable with the cables to allow for removal and insertion of a module of the modular electronic system.
INDICATOR ACTIVATION OVER AN ALTERNATIVE CABLE PATH
A method is disclosed to identify a port that is associated with a faulty cable. In one embodiment, such a method identifies a cable to replace. The cable provides a path between a first port, residing on a first component, and a second port, residing on a second component. The method further identifies whether an alternative path, bypassing the first cable, exists between the first component and the second component. In the event the alternative path exists, the method sends, over the alternative path, from the first component to the second component, a command to activate an indicator on the second port. This command is received and executed by the second component to activate the indicator. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed.
