Flexible, Scalable, and Manageable for Enterprise AI Workloads
Nexvec™ is built to meet the demanding infrastructure needs of modern Enterprise AI, including applications focused on inference, reasoning, and emerging Agentic AI use cases. These technologies are designed to revolutionize enterprise workflows, automate cross-functional processes, and enable intelligent reasoning by unlocking the potential of enterprise data.
On the scale-up compute front, Nexvec™ supports open standards such as PCIe and CXL, facilitating the creation of a flexible compute fabric for GPU and memory pooling. This on-demand, dynamic resource allocation enhances the efficiency of multi-tenant enterprise deployments. The solution incorporates Liqid Matrix orchestration, supporting top frameworks such as VMware, SLURM, and Kubernetes for optimal AI workload placement. By abstracting hardware resources, Nexvec™ reduces the physical footprint and power consumption typically associated with traditional high-end server deployments, providing maximum utilization with minimal overhead.
“Edgecore’s adoption of Liqid’s software-defined composable solution is a powerful validation of the market’s need to dynamically manage and allocate critical resources like GPUs and memory,” said Sumit Puri, Co-Founder and President of Liqid. “Together, we’re delivering next-generation AI infrastructure as a complete solution to help enterprises accelerate AI adoption.”
Optimized for Scale-Out Architectures and Open Networking
For large-scale, distributed deployments, Nexvec™ leverages Edgecore’s renowned open networking switches, trusted by hyperscalers and enterprise AI applications. It boasts advanced Ethernet-based AI fabrics built on Broadcom’s Tomahawk (e.g., TH4, TH5) and Trident series, in addition to VoQ-based Jericho3/Ramon3 architectures. These technologies ensure congestion-free routing, maximizing the performance of AI workloads.
Furthermore, Edgecore’s recently launched Pure-Play SONiC strategy underscores the company’s commitment to fostering open ecosystems and its ongoing support for the SONiC community.
Commitment to Seamless Integration and Interoperability
As part of the Nexvec™ solution, Edgecore continues to support third-party Network Operating System (NOS) options. Through a certification and integration program, the company guarantees interoperability and quality assurance, enabling businesses to build reliable and efficient AI infrastructures. Additionally, the newly introduced Nous fabric controller offers an integrated, automated management profile for the entire solution, delivering lifecycle management from Day 0 through Day 2.
Edgecore’s Nexvec™ is designed to empower enterprises to adopt AI technologies seamlessly, streamlining the path to digital transformation with a flexible, scalable, and cost-effective solution.
