With nearly a decade of delivering complimentary RDMA programming lectures and hands-on training, the APAC RDMA competition has become instrumental in driving HPC and AI technologies and education into APAC. Students who pass the lecture certification are provided with an RDMA programmer certificate letter. 100s of students have been certified in past competitions, with many of them graduating and becoming core programmers in top companies throughout the world.
This year, the APAC RDMA programming competition targeted rising technologies that are fueling Cloud-Native Supercomputing. The HPC-AI Advisory Council performed specialized RDMA programming training for data processing unit (DPU) + CPU-based platforms, and how to fully utilize the efficiency between DPUs and CPUs to reach the best application performance.
RDMA programming capabilities have become a fundamental requirement from modern HPC and AI applications, creating a surging demand by hyperscale cloud providers and data centers for RDMA programmers from universities and research centers, said Gilad Shainer, chairman of HPC-AI Advisory Council. With over 450 member organizations worldwide, the HPC-AI Advisory is enabling the industry with educated talent to help face their most challenge applications.
The competition was supported by the University of Science and Technology of China, the Ohio State University and Tsinghua University who shared their latest RDMA programming experience.
