As hardware reached its physical limits in processors, the industry was challenged to push beyond these limits to continue improvements in speed and efficiency. As we see the curve of Moore’s Law flatten, the industry has found new ways to increase Compute performance, beyond adding more cores. Now we are seeing an explosion of general purpose hardware which can be used to offload performance-critical operations, including GPUs, FPGAs, SmartNICs, RISC-V processors, and, most recently, Data Processing Units (DPUs). Kris Murphy will provide insight on how the industry is evolving to overcome the performance bottlenecks in Compute.
