PCI-SIG: The common rules that power AI servers

PCI-SIG sets the common rules that let AI server components work together and backs them with compliance testing. Its authority is limited to connectivity layer.

PCI-SIG: the internal rulebook of the AI server

An AI server can bring together processors, accelerators, network cards, storage controllers, switches, retimers and security devices from competing companies. PCI-SIG maintains the common interface that lets these components discover one another and exchange data, then organises…

Console Connect: The Telecom Network Behind a Cloud-Style API

Console Connect presents global connectivity through the language of cloud consumption: choose endpoints, select capacity, create a service and manage it through a portal or API. Beneath that interface sits a more complicated system of carrier backbone, data-centre ports, local…

Caliptra and the root of trust inside the data-centre chip

Modern servers contain several chips that boot code, hold keys and enforce policy before the host operating system is awake. Caliptra gives those components a common open root of trust, but factories, provisioning systems, physical implementations and fleet verifiers still decide…

OpenINTEL built a memory for the DNS—not a copy of it

The Domain Name System answers current questions and preserves little of its own history. OpenINTEL has built a longitudinal record by repeatedly measuring a defined set of domains and address space, creating unusual research value while leaving user demand, resolver behaviour…

perfSONAR and the path no single network can diagnose alone

perfSONAR gives research and education networks a shared way to test paths that cross several institutions. It can replace anecdote with common evidence, but endpoint quality, clock accuracy, local policy and incomplete coverage keep diagnosis a collective judgement rather than…
