Netris CEO Alex Soroyan demonstrated the multi-tenancy and network automation solution in AI infrastructure. The presentation began with a live demonstration of the Netris controller, showcasing how it facilitates the setup and management of AI infrastructure networking. Utilizing Terraform modules and a “CloudSim” simulation, Soroyan illustrated the process of initializing the controller, generating network configurations based on user-defined parameters, and creating a digital twin of the network for validation.
The core of the presentation focused on day-2 operations, specifically the creation and management of tenants and network isolation. Using templates, Soroyan showed how easy it is to establish isolated clusters (VPCs) for different tenants. These templates translate high-level server assignments into low-level switch port configurations, enabling a cloud-native approach to network management. The demo also highlighted the integration of Elastic IPs to expose the internal clusters to the outside world.
Finally, Soroyan discussed monitoring features, which automate the configuration of monitoring tools and provide network health checks, including link validation. The presentation also touched on InfiniBand networking, demonstrating Netris’s capability to manage InfiniBand fabrics and integrate them with Ethernet networks. The key takeaways were automating network tasks, simplifying complex configurations through templates, and comprehensive monitoring capabilities, all contributing to a more efficient and manageable AI infrastructure environment.
