Ababoneleli abakhulu be-cloud kunye nabathengisi be-hyperscalers benza konke okusemandleni abo ukufumana iingenelo zobugcisa ngaphezu kwabachasi babo, kwaye kwiveki ephelileyo iMicrosoft yenze kanye loo nto ngokuthenga umenzi wentambo ye-fiber optic Lumenisity.
Ukuthenga umenzi wekhebula ngokucacileyo akunanzuzo ingako kune-AWS edala ii-Arm CPU zayo okanye i-Google's Tensor Processing Unit.
Ukufunyanwa kweLumenisity kunxulumene nokunciphisa i-latency, ingxaki ejongene nenkampani efunyenweyo iintambo ze-fiber optic i-hollow core (HCF) enokunciphisa ixesha elifunekayo lokuhambisa idatha phakathi kwamaziko edatha efini.
Zahlulwe kwiZiko loPhando lwe-Optoelectronics kwiYunivesithi yaseSouthampton ngo-2017, iintambo ze-HCF zeLumenisity zenzelwe ukuthwala ukukhanya kwelaser kusetyenziswa umoya endaweni yeglasi yesilika esetyenziswa kwinto efana neCornings SMF-28.
Nangona sicinga ngesantya sokukhanya njengesizinzileyo, sinokuhluka ngokuxhomekeke kwisixhobo esihamba ngaso. Ngokwesalathiso, ukukhanya kuhamba ngefiberglass malunga ne-200 yezigidi zeemitha ngomzuzwana xa kuthelekiswa ne-300 yezigidi zeemitha ngomzuzwana emoyeni. Ngokutsho kweLumenisity, oku kuthetha ukuba ukukhanya kuhamba malunga ne-47 ekhulwini ngokukhawuleza nge-high-carbon fiberglass (HCF) kune-silica fiberglass.
Umhlalutyi weDell'Oro uJimmy Yu uxelele iThe Register ukuba kubalulekile kuba kunceda ukuphucula ukusebenza kwenethiwekhi. "Ndingakwandisa ukufikelela kwam kwinani elifanayo le-latency, okanye ndinganciphisa ixesha ngokupheleleyo," utshilo.
Ngenxa yoku, iLumenisity ithi iintambo zayo zinokugcina i-latency efanayo kwiikhilomitha ezingama-90 njengefayibha yeglasi kwiikhilomitha ezingama-60.
Nangona iintambo ze-fiber optic zanamhlanje zichaneke kakhulu, ukungalungelelani kwiglasi kunye ne-cable coating kunokubangela ilahleko ezifuna ii-amplifiers okanye ii-repeaters ezibizayo nezibangela ukuba i-latency ilungiswe. Ukuba itekhnoloji yeLumenisity inceda iMicrosoft ukufezekisa i-HCF yokulahleka okuphantsi kakhulu kwiindlela ezinde ezilindelwe yinkampani enkulu yesoftware, uYu ukholelwa ukuba ukonga okunxulumene nokususa okanye ukusebenzisa ii-repeaters ezimbalwa kuya kuba luncedo.
Nangona i-fiber optics Isetyenziswa kuyo yonke into ukususela ekuqhagamsheleni iiseva ezizimeleyo ukuya kwiiswitshi, kwiindawo ukuya kwiindawo nakwiindawo ukuya kwiindawo; ukubambezeleka okubangelwa ziintambo ze-fiber optic kudla ngokwenza umahluko omkhulu kumgama omde wejografi.
Ngenxa yoko, umdla weMicrosoft kwiintambo ze-HCF kusenokwenzeka ukuba ugxile kwi-data center interconnection (DCI).
