CPU, GPU…..DPU?

Nvidia gave me access to their data center to play with a new technology. Traditionally, we’ve had CPUs, GPUs….but now we have DPUs? These new powerful processors are meant for data and what they do for us will blow your mind!!

The past: lots of dedicated chips for 1 or few purposes.
The present: few chips for multiple purposes.
The future: lots of dedicated chips for 1 or few purposes.

Five years later: Huge advancement in hardware! DPU now becomes integrated to CPU as tech node becomes more advanced and IDPU now uses smaller portion of CPU budget.

That was awesome. So on my list of things I need (but not actually need) for my computer, I'll add a DPU. Its right up there with the blowy-matron, sub-zero cooler, quantum co-processor, and nuclear fusion cell from Fall Out 4.

[JaronOdele]

The CPU is like a manager who's trained in knowing how to sort and distribute tasks, but isn't very good at the task itself. The DPU is like a specialized employee who's trained in that specific task. The CPU can delegate, and the DPU can perform. That's how it makes sense to me. Pretty sweet.

[shadowrecruit]

give this guy some trophy for being the best explainer
edit : good time to point out this is the most likes Ive ever gotten lol

[AudreyRobinel]

If i'm nvidia, i'd send you cards like that, because i think videos like these are better at conveying what's good about the product than corporate videos.
nice work, great editing and pacing!

13:09 you know, google has already made that AI processing unit, called TPU or tensor processing unit. Its specific job is processing many many small computations, just like GPU, but without graphic processing. As processor technology is advancing, we will have many processor made specifically for those tasks that is specific, need a lot of computations, and something that CPU just cannot do it better

Enthusiasm 1000% is always the best part of your content. It may be worth including the concept of offloading & discrete hardware in this summary. The microcode, driver, & software is what makes this solution possible. W/o it this is just chips on an easily removable pcb.

[richmoody]

Will be exploring FPGAs instead of SoC for some of my applications thanks to you will definitely be adding DPUs to my system...thanks again Chuck and have a great weekend!

[Promomoguls]

It's so amazing how you can take something so complex to understand and make it so simple

[pkowilich]

worth mentioning that virtualization was around in the 70's on mainframes.

[andrewcampbell]

Man, this video made me smile. I’m glad someone is getting enjoyment out these smartNICs.😅

I had gotten to play around and test those since the first version of the Bluefield cards. I was a member of the Data Center Ops team at one of theVMware’s R&D data center (miss that job in a lot of ways, but full cycle now I’m employed at NVIDA). It’s crazy how the tech had evolved from the first smartNIC vs what has gone to market now.

Also, got to help build the infrastructure for Project Monterey (that was a huge undertaking).

Thanks for the video Chuck. Even though you made me a little sad, but your content is some of the greatest stuff on the net! Keep up the passion and great digestible content.

[pachabee]

This guy makes everything SO easy to understand. I love it!

[JohnWalz]

Your energy is infectious my dude! Keep it up ❤

[smokeebeefpv]

I'm a systems engineer specializing in virtualization at a giant 3 letter company, and I can see a million uses for this. Very cool.

[georgejenson]

So if the dpu is just a normal computer (with a more efficient arm precessor) but put on a card that can go in a pcie slot, does that mean you could theoretically make a dpu with upgradable parts?

[beautifulislam]

Only because of you, now i am daily driving linux. I got so much knowledge from your channel.

[mynameisurl]

I remember when the first GPU was announced. It was the Voodoo Graphics card. After that, the supposed next big thing was the PPU or Physics Processing Unit, But it never really took off. Now it's the Data Processing Unit. I can see the next thing being a card dedicated just to AI.

[jmr]

I don't NEED one either. Definitely want one.
