Ultra Accelerator Link Consortium

Industry standards are based on collective best practices and meet unique industry demands. Developed by industry experts, a technology standard represents a general agreement among diverse – and sometimes competing – stakeholders. The UALink Consortium provides a space for industry leaders to focus on innovation within a structured framework rather than reinventing core components, resulting in accelerated market entry. Read our blog to explore the benefits of an open industry standard: https://bit.ly/3XlzUuV #UALink #AIScaleUp 

The UALink Consortium was formed to develop interconnect technical specifications that facilitate direct load, store, and atomic operations between AI Accelerators. Join our efforts by becoming a member today: https://bit.ly/43ozIi6 #UALink #UALinkConsortium #AIScaleUp

The UALink 1.0 Specification - coming soon! - will enable the connection of up to 1K accelerators within an AI pod and is based on the IEEE P802.3dj PHY Layer. Join the rapidly growing effort to advance UALink technology, helping to identify and implement usage models for the future of data center AI connectivity: https://bit.ly/3Q1PBmZ #UALink #UALinkConsortium #AIScaleUp 

“UALink will be critical in addressing performance and bandwidth communication demands of hyperscale data centers.” – UALink Consortium Board member Richard Solomon (Synopsys Inc) Explore the benefits of UALink technology today: https://bit.ly/3NIzMAt #UALink #UALinkConsortium #AIScaleUp 

UALink is designed to address the increasing demands of AI workloads by providing a high-speed, low-latency scale-up interconnect for accelerators. As an open industry standard, UALink promotes interoperability and fosters a healthy ecosystem for AI hardware and software.   UALink also reduces the power required to connect GPUs by 150-200W per GPU, which can lower your TCO or increase the performance of your accelerator, while enabling the creation of large-scale AI clusters, supporting more complex, scalable, and powerful AI models.   Stay tuned and visit our website for updates from the UALink Consortium as we continue to push the boundaries of AI technology: https://bit.ly/3NIzMAt   #UALinkConsortium #UALink #AIScaleUp

We are excited to welcome GigaIO to the UALink Consortium. Our members provide valuable input to establish an open, interoperable standard for high-performance computing connections in scale-up AI environments.

The Ultra Accelerator Link (UALink) Consortium has made significant strides in its mission to revolutionize AI infrastructure. We recently expanded our Board of Directors, welcoming Alibaba Group, Apple, and Synopsys Inc, whose expertise will be invaluable in driving the development and adoption of UALink technology.   Additionally, since our incorporation in late 2024, the UALink Consortium has expanded to include over 75 member companies, representing a diverse range of industry leaders.   Plus, with the highly anticipated UALink 1.0 specification, on track for release in the first quarter of 2025, we are excited to drive this major step towards enabling high-speed, scale-up interconnects for next-generation AI clusters.   Visit our website to find the latest updates from the UALink Consortium: https://bit.ly/3NIzMAt   #UALinkConsortium #UALink #AIScaleUp 

The UALink Consortium is a dynamic group of industry leaders united in our goal to foster innovation and establish an open, interoperable standard for high-performance computing connections in scale-up AI environments.
