SCMagazine.com reported that “The widespread use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and large-language models (LLMs) means that many enterprises will soon have to undertake a transformative reconfiguration of their network architectures.” The August 23, 2024 entitled “AI network deployments: Understanding the performance challenges” (https://tinyurl.com/ytaehycj) included these comments:
Those networks must become less centralized and more reliant upon edge servers while maximizing efficiency and minimizing latency. Architectures using secure access service edge (SASE) models, especially those tailored to the huge demands of GenAI, will be best poised to adapt to this new networking paradigm.
The network demands of GenAI and LLM modeling are not the same as those of cloud computing and other well-understood use cases. AI-use networks need to be especially decentralized and reliant upon edge servers and regional points of presence (PoPs).
Those edge servers will primarily be used for processing,…
