SUMMARY:Speed, Smarts, and Science: Next-Gen HPC Networking at UT Dallas
DESCRIPTION:Brian Dourty (The University of Texas at Dallas) and Mike Newc
 omb (HPE)\n\nThe University of Texas at Dallas (UT Dallas) launched the Hi
 gh Performance Computing for Research and Education (HPCRE) initiative to 
 support cutting-edge research with advanced computing capabilities. As HPC
  demands increased, legacy network infrastructure struggled with performan
 ce, visibility, and operational efficiency. In response, UT Dallas partner
 ed with Juniper Networks to modernize its HPC network, replacing outdated 
 Cisco and Dell systems with Juniper QFX series switches and Apstra automat
 ion. This transformation delivered reduced latency, proactive fault detect
 ion, and a unified network view, streamlining collaboration between IT and
  research teams. The session highlights how automation and predictive anal
 ytics improved capacity planning and decreased resolution times. Attendees
  will learn how a modern network architecture enhanced speed, agility, and
  reliability in HPC workloads—accelerating research outcomes and fostering
  innovation. This case study offers valuable insights into reimagining inf
 rastructure to meet the growing demands of high performance computing in a
 cademia.\n\nTag: Networking\n\nRecording: Livestreamed, Recorded\n\nRegist
