Technologies for allocating resources within a self-managed node

Technologies for dynamically allocating resources within a self-managed node include a self-managed node to receive quality of service objective data indicative of a performance objective of one or more workloads assigned to the self-managed node. Each workload includes one or more tasks. The self-managed node is also to execute the one or more tasks to perform the one or more workloads, obtain telemetry data as the workloads are performed, determine, as a function of the telemetry data, an adjustment to the allocation of resources among the workloads to satisfy the performance objective, and apply the determined adjustment as the workloads are performed by the self-managed node. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

TECHNIQUES TO VERIFY AND AUTHENTICATE RESOURCES IN A DATA CENTER COMPUTER ENVIRONMENT

Embodiments are generally directed apparatuses, methods, techniques and so forth to receive a sled manifest comprising identifiers for physical resources of a sled, receive results of an authentication and validation operations performed to authenticate and validate the physical resources of the sled, determine whether the results of the authentication and validation operations indicate the physical resources are authenticate or not authenticate. Further and in response to the determination that the results indicate the physical resources are authenticated, permit the physical resources to process a workload, and in response to the determination that the results indicate the physical resources are not authenticated, prevent the physical resources from processing the workload.

Technologies for a low-latency interface to data storage
10542333 · 2020-01-21 · ·

Technologies for a low-latency interface with data storage of a storage sled in a data center are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a storage sled stores metadata including the location of data in a storage device in low-latency non-volatile memory. When accessing data, the storage sled may access the metadata on the low-latency non-volatile memory and then, based on the location determined by the access to the metadata, access the location of the data in the storage device. Such an approach results in only one access to the data storage in order to read the data instead of two.

ROBOTICALLY SERVICEABLE COMPUTING RACK AND SLEDS

Examples may include racks for a data center and sleds for the racks, the sleds arranged to house physical resources for the data center. The sleds and racks can be arranged to be autonomously manipulated, such as, by a robot. The sleds and racks can include features to facilitate automated installation, removal, maintenance, and manipulation by a robot.

TECHNOLOGIES FOR DYNAMICALLY MANAGING RESOURCES IN DISAGGREGATED ACCELERATORS

Technologies for dynamically managing resources in disaggregated accelerators include an accelerator. The accelerator includes acceleration circuitry with multiple logic portions, each capable of executing a different workload. Additionally, the accelerator includes communication circuitry to receive a workload to be executed by a logic portion of the accelerator and a dynamic resource allocation logic unit to identify a resource utilization threshold associated with one or more shared resources of the accelerator to be used by a logic portion in the execution of the workload, limit, as a function of the resource utilization threshold, the utilization of the one or more shared resources by the logic portion as the logic portion executes the workload, and subsequently adjust the resource utilization threshold as the workload is executed. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Technologies for optical communication in rack clusters

Technologies for optical communication in a rack cluster in a data center are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a network switch is connected to each of 1,024 sleds by an optical cable that enables communication at a rate of 200 gigabits per second. The optical cable has low loss, allowing for long cable lengths, which in turn allows for connecting to a large number of sleds. The optical cable also has a very high intrinsic bandwidth limit, allowing for the bandwidth to be upgraded without upgrading the optical infrastructure.
