As the demands of AI and machine learning continue to accelerate, data center networking is evolving rapidly to keep pace. For many enterprises, 400GbE and even 800GbE are becoming standard choices, driven by the need for high-speed, low-latency data transfer for AI workloads that are both data-intensive and time-sensitive. AI models for tasks like large language processing, real-time analytics, and

Before diving into Amazon’s S3 Connector for PyTorch, it is worthwhile to introduce the problem it is intended to solve. Many AI models need to be trained on data that cannot fit into memory. Furthermore, many really interesting models being built for computer vision and generative AI use data that cannot even fit on the disk drive that comes
