We’re still in the early days of AI, especially in the enterprise. AI Infrastructure Field Day 2 is back to explore what it really takes to build, scale, and maintain AI-enabled applications. From April 22–25, we’ll be live in Santa Clara, streaming on LinkedIn, the Tech Field Day website, and Techstrong TV, bringing you a front-row seat to the biggest names in AI infrastructure.
Event Schedule
We kick things off on Tuesday, April 22, with a full day at Google, diving into the AI hypercomputer, the supercomputing system powering every workload in Google Cloud. Google has deep AI expertise, with tools for GPU and TPU acceleration and a robust data pipeline, all managed at scale via Google Kubernetes Engine.
On the morning of Wednesday, April 23, we’re with Juniper Networks, where self-optimizing Ethernet fabrics dynamically adapt to congestion. Juniper’s fabric management and assurance tools streamline the lifecycle from design to deployment, helping keep AI data centers running securely and efficiently. In the afternoon, Solidigm takes the stage to highlight the unsung hero of AI infrastructure: data. They’ll discuss the importance of high-quality training data and a solid AI data pipeline, showcasing their portfolio from high-capacity SSDs to the latest liquid-cooled drives.
Thursday kicks off with Phison, putting on-site LLM training and inference within reach for SMBs, local governments, and universities. Their AI Adaptive Plus solution lets organizations leverage their own data to power AI. Later, Netris shares how they’re working with NVIDIA to automate and scale AI networking for GPU cloud providers with cloud-native constructs like VPCs, gateways, and load balancers. Nutanix wraps up the day with a focus on on-premises LLM Choice, offering flexibility for GenAI experimentation without the unpredictable costs of the cloud, while meeting enterprise security and policy requirements.
On Friday, we start with Aviz Networks, showing how Aviz 1 enables AI networking across SONiC and Cumulus OS, running on diverse hardware, including NVIDIA’s Spectrum X switches. We’ll see demos and reference architectures for open, automated, intelligent networking in AI environments. The event closes with Keysight, focusing on the importance of testing and tuning AI data center networks. They’ll demonstrate methods for validating front-end and back-end performance, ensuring ultra-low-latency data flow and high performance at scale.
