Nchifukwa chiyani Microsoft idangogula kampani ya fiber optic cable Lumenisity?

Opereka chithandizo chachikulu cha cloud ndi ma hyperscalers amachita zonse zomwe angathe kuti apeze ubwino waukadaulo kuposa otsutsana nawo, ndipo sabata yatha Microsoft idachita chimodzimodzi mwa kugula Lumenisity, wopanga ma fiber optic cable.

Kupeza wopanga mawaya sikuli bwino kwenikweni poyerekeza ndi AWS popanga ma Arm CPU akeake kapena Google's Tensor Processing Unit.

Kupeza Lumenisity kukugwirizana ndi kuchepetsa kuchedwa, vuto lomwe kampani yomwe yagula imathetsa ndi zingwe za fiber optic hollow core (HCF) yomwe ingachepetse nthawi yofunikira yosuntha deta pakati pa malo osungira deta amtambo.

Mosiyana ndi Center for Optoelectronics Research ya University of Southampton mu 2017, zingwe za HCF za Lumenisity zimapangidwa kuti zinyamule kuwala kwa laser pogwiritsa ntchito mpweya m'malo mwa galasi la silica lomwe limagwiritsidwa ntchito mu chinthu chonga Cornings SMF-28.
Ngakhale timaganiza kuti liwiro la kuwala ndi lokhazikika, limatha kusiyana kutengera ndi njira yomwe imadutsa. Mwachitsanzo, kuwala kumadutsa mu fiberglass pafupifupi mamita 200 miliyoni pa sekondi poyerekeza ndi mamita 300 miliyoni pa sekondi kudzera mumlengalenga. Malinga ndi Lumenisity, izi zikutanthauza kuti kuwala kumadutsa mwachangu pafupifupi 47 peresenti kudzera mu fiberglass yokhala ndi mpweya wambiri (HCF) kuposa kudzera mu fiberglass ya silica.

Katswiri wa Dell'Oro, Jimmy Yu, adauza The Register kuti ndikofunikira chifukwa zimathandiza kukonza magwiridwe antchito a netiweki. "Ndikhoza kuwonjezera kufikira kwanga kuti ndikhale ndi nthawi yofanana, kapena ndingathe kuchepetsa nthawi yonse," adatero.

Pachifukwa ichi, Lumenisity ikunena kuti zingwe zake zimatha kusunga kuchedwa komweko pa makilomita 90 monga ulusi wagalasi pa makilomita 60.

Ndipo ngakhale kuti zingwe zamakono za fiber optic ndizolondola kwambiri, kusakhazikika kwa magalasi ndi zokutira chingwe kungayambitse kutayika komwe kumafuna ma amplifiers okwera mtengo komanso ochedwa kuti akonze. Ngati ukadaulo wa Lumenisity ungathandize Microsoft kukwaniritsa HCF yotayika kwambiri pamtunda wautali womwe kampani yayikulu ya mapulogalamu ikuyembekeza, Yu akukhulupirira kuti ndalama zomwe zimasungidwa pochotsa kapena kugwiritsa ntchito ma repeaters ochepa zingakhale zazikulu.

Ngakhale kuti kuwala kwa fiber Imagwiritsidwa ntchito pa chilichonse kuyambira kulumikiza ma seva osiyanasiyana mpaka ma switch, ma zone kupita ku ma zone ndi ma regions kupita ku ma regions; kuchedwa komwe kumachitika chifukwa cha ma fiber optic cables kumangopanga kusiyana kwakukulu pa mtunda wautali.

Motero, chidwi cha Microsoft pa ma waya a HCF mwina chikuyang'ana kwambiri pa kulumikizana kwa malo olumikizirana deta (DCI).
