The AI opportunity is defined by a skilled ecosystem

Red Hat News - Tue, 05/07/2024 - 08:00
Every year I look forward to Red Hat Summit as a moment to collaborate, innovate and gain inspiration from our partner ecosystem. Now more than ever, I am convinced that this is the age of the ecosystem. The industry is booming with emerging technologies, which are influencing organizations to rethink the ways in which they operate, optimize and scale their business. For many, this means reconciling existing systems and infrastructure with new solutions. Long gone are the days of a single datacenter and single cloud strategy.At the center of today’s IT landscape is the opportunity of artific

Answering this question becomes more difficult when you’re looking across multiple platforms and environments.To help simplify this, Red Hat AWS have partnered to help our customers take advantage

Leveraging Kernel Module Management Operator for hardware accelerator enablement

Red Hat News - Tue, 05/07/2024 - 08:00
Being a cluster administrator can come with its own challenges, especially with environments that carry out-of-tree (OOT) cluster modules. Upgrading device plug-ins or different kernel versions can be prone to errors when doing so one-by-one. This is where the Kernel Module Management Operator (KMM) comes in, allowing admins to build, sign, and deploy multiple kernel versions for any kernel module.KMM is designed to accommodate multiple kernel versions at once for any kernel module. Using this operator can also leverage the hardware acceleration capabilities of Intel Center GPU Flex, allowing

ECC DDR5-4800 vs. DDR5-5200 Memory Performance For AMD Ryzen Zen 4

Phoronix - Tue, 05/07/2024 - 02:30
Back when looking at the AMD Ryzen 7000 series budget server performance last year, DDR5-4800 ECC UDIMMs were used with the ASRock Rack 1U4LW-B650/2L2T Ryzen server given that's what was broadly available at the time. Since then there's been more ECC UDIMMs coming to market above DDR5-4800 speeds. Recently I bought a pair of Kingston Server Premier 32GB 5600MT/s DDR5 ECC CL46 UDIMMs (KSM56E46BD8KM-32HA) and that's the focus of today's tests. For those curious if the faster ECC UDIMMs are worthwhile compared to the commonality of DDR5-4800 ECC UDIMMs, these benchmarks are for you.
