Ultra Ethernet Starts Here: Slingshot’s Role in the Next HPC Era
DescriptionThe Ultra Ethernet Consortium is reimagining Ethernet to surpass InfiniBand—while preserving its legacy of ubiquity and cost-effectiveness. HPE Slingshot is not just aligned with this vision—it’s helping lead it. Slingshot engineers are contributing extensively to the Ultra Ethernet specification, with several foundational components drawn directly from Slingshot’s proven innovations in fabric switching and RDMA NICs. But Slingshot goes further. While Ultra Ethernet raises the industry floor—establishing a genuine path to multi-vendor interoperability for RDMA for the first time—HPE Slingshot pushes the ceiling. It delivers advanced capabilities that far exceed the specification to deliver unmatched scalability, effective congestion control, and price/performance. From exascale systems like El Capitan to mainstream HPC in engineering, energy, and academia, HPE Slingshot is making the vision of Ultra Ethernet a reality today.
