Interesting (and scary) to see a blog post (https://thenewstack.io/research-ebpf-not-always-a-silver-bullet-for-network-apps/) about a new paper (led by @fshahinfar1.bsky.social, along with @gianniantichi.bsky.social and Sebastiano) explainging that the new shiny technology is not a panacea.

Have you wondered about challenges in designing and running a datacenter that count up to 512K GPUs?

"Astral: A Datacenter Infrastructure for Large Language Model Training at Scale" will be presented at ACM SIGCOMM! Work in collaboration with Nanjing University, Harvard University and Tencent!

Recently, I have been busy exploring eBPF Arena — a new API that enables eBPF programs to allocate memory pages; similar functionality as mmap and munmap . I've written a blog post about it that I like to share with you: fshahinfar1.github.io/blog/04_ebpf...
