“FABRIC stands out because of its end-to-end programmability. This allows users to program all the elements of the network, from network interface cards (NICs) to P4 switches, offering a unique platform for research and innovation in network design.”
FABRIC Does Intelligent Networking
Rethink how networks process and cache data to enable uses we cannot yet predict.
Connect with real facilities: NSF clouds and testbeds, ACCESS compute clusters, and campus infrastructure
Run applications anywhere: campus, edge, cloud, or routers in between
Program your hardware: control advanced in-network compute, storage, and accelerators with programmable NICs and switches on dedicated circuits
