  • In Network Compute

    In-network compute refers to the concept of performing computational tasks within the network infrastructure itself, such as switches, routers, or network interface cards (NICs), instead of relying solely on traditional centralized computing devices. This approach reduces latency, optimizes bandwidth, and improves overall system efficiency by processing data closer to its source or within the data…

  • Virtualization: Type 2 Hypervisor

    A Type 2 Hypervisor, also known as a hosted hypervisor, is a virtualization technology that runs on top of a host operating system (OS) rather than directly on the hardware. Unlike Type 1 hypervisors, which run directly on physical hardware, Type 2 hypervisors rely on the host OS to manage hardware resources. Type 2 hypervisors…

  • Virtualization: Type 1 Hypervisor

    A Type 1 hypervisor, also known as a bare-metal hypervisor, is a virtualization technology that operates directly on the physical hardware of a host machine, without the need for an underlying operating system. Unlike Type 2 hypervisors, which run on top of a host operating system, Type 1 hypervisors manage virtual machines (VMs) at the…
