2024 Innovation Leader: Network Switches for AI
Market Leader: NVIDIA
Since 2008 when IT Brand Pulse was founded, Cisco was voted as the Market leader for Ethernet switches and Mellanox as the Market leader for higher bandwidth and lower latency InfiniBand switches. Apparently, IT pros realize that AI needs high-bandwidth and low latency because they voted NVIDIA (formerly Mellanox) network switches as the Market and Innovation leaders.
Network Switches for AI: InfiniBand and Ethernet switches with the ultra-high-bandwidth and low-latency required to maintain LLM performance in large scale-out environments.
