 AI clusters involve three types of networks Frontend Fabric, GPU Backend Fabric, and Storage Backend Fabric.  Frontend Fabric used to connect to the Internet or storage systems for loading training data.

Design Compute Network for AI Glusters

 This guide provides a detailed introduction to the standardized networking solution, configuration guidance, and maintenance manual for small-scale AI computing backend fabric.  The solution implements a single-tier Clos network using Asterfusion data center switches, based on Rail-only architecture.

Best Practices for Small-Scale AI Compute Backend Fabric

 This guide provides a detailed standardized networking solution, configuration guidance, and maintenance manual for building medium-to-large scale AI compute backend fabric.  The solution implements a 2-tier Clos network using Asterfusion CX864E-N switches, based on Rail-optimized architecture.
