Why AI Networks Are Different
What transport and congestion control are, what you already know from running enterprise networks, and why AI training breaks the everyday baseline.
Transport Options
The four families of transport you'll meet in AI fabrics — classic IP, RDMA, hyperscaler-custom, and scale-up — told in three eras and a tabbed comparison.
Congestion Control Options
Every congestion control algorithm you'll meet in an AI fabric — TCP family, datacenter / RDMA, hyperscaler-custom, and research — told in three eras and a tabbed comparison.
What This Curriculum Picks
Of every transport and congestion control option in production, this course walks RoCEv2 + DCQCN + PFC/ECN. Why that combination, and what to do if your stack differs.
