2018: The server for processing of loadings in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning

On September 13, 2018 it became known that Cisco provided Cisco UCS C480ML M5 – the server developed especially for processing of workloads in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Cisco UCS C480ML M5 accelerates process of deep learning – one of options of the machine learning requiring intensive calculations, using neural networks and big data sets for training computers in the solution of complex tasks. The server equipped with powerful graphic processors NVIDIA is intended for acceleration of work of popular program stacks of machine learning. To data analysis and developers specialists for experiments with machine learning rather simple notebook, but deep learning requires serious computing powers. The IT architecture capable to work with extensive sets data and also tools of judgment of these data for further training is necessary for it. Therefore the main objective of cooperation of Cisco with technology partners in machine learning can be formulated so: simplify implementation and reduce dates of receipt of analytical information.

"In the closest several years of the application based on artificial intelligence technologies and machine learning will become a basis of activity of the enterprises. It will help to solve a set of complex business problems, but at the same time will set serious problems for IT departments. Replenishment of a line of Cisco UCS will give a power pulse to development of initiatives in the field of AI in the most different industries. Customers from the financial sector study methods of increase in efficiency of detection of fraud and improvement of algorithmic trading. Physicians, in turn, are interested in increase in accuracy of diagnostics, improvement of classification of medical images and acceleration of development of medicines. Roland Acra, senior vice president and general manager of division of Cisco on development and promotion of DPC

Large-scale support of artificial intelligence

Together with the Cisco UCS C480 ML server the Cisco company offers customers a full range of computing options for all stages of lifecycle of artificial intelligence and machine learning: from collecting and data analysis on border, data preparation and training in DPC before obtaining results in real time.

• To data analysis and developers specialists. The systems of the unified calculations of Cisco UCS help thousands of customers to take information from Big Data. The Cisco server for the AI applications gives the chance to take more information from data, to use it for decision making acceleration. Also, relying on the initiatives DevNet AI Developer Center and DevNet Ecosystem Exchange, Cisco offers data analysis and developers specialists tools and resources for creating applications of the next generation.
• To IT specialists. The system of the unified calculations simplifies for IT specialists process of adding of different technologies in a working environment. Using Cisco Intersight technology, they get such advantages of cloud management as simplicity and expansion of a coverage. Now from a cloud it is possible to automate application the politician and operational processes for all computing infrastructure. Applying the recommended architecture of Cisco which help to understand artful designs of quickly developing stacks of the software of AI and machine learning, IT specialists will be able to unroll surely applications on the scale of all enterprise.
• In cooperation with an ecosystem. Cisco does not work alone. The company uses approaches based on technologies of containers and clouds for simplification of large-scale deployment of the open source software regardless of location of applications. The company certifies for the server such environments and software of machine learning as Anaconda and Kubeflow and also solutions of Cloudera and Hortonworks.
