Options Technology, a leading provider of infrastructure services to the global capital markets, has been recognized in Broadcom/VMware's Global Partner Program. This recognition marks a major milestone for Options and underscores its commitment to delivering next-generation Private Cloud Infrastructure for the financial services industry. Options' infrastructure is built on cutting-edge technologies and advanced security frameworks, with a dynamic mix of virtualized, containerized, and physical environments integrated with a high-performance global fabric.
Broadcom, a leading semiconductor company, has made a significant stride in the realm of AI infrastructure with the introduction of Jericho4, a next-generation ethernet fabric router. This innovative technology is designed to meet the growing demands of distributed AI infrastructure, enabling seamless computing across multiple data centers.
The Jericho4 router is engineered to connect data centers up to 60 miles apart, accelerating AI workloads by managing massive volumes of network traffic. It leverages high-bandwidth memory typically used in GPUs from industry giants like Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices [1]. One of the standout features of Jericho4 is its ability to interconnect over one million XPUs across multiple data centers, breaking traditional scaling limits with unmatched bandwidth, security, and lossless performance. This capability is crucial as AI models continue to grow in size and complexity, exceeding the power and physical limits of single data centers [1].
Built on a 3nm process, Jericho4 integrates Broadcom's advanced 200G PAM4 SerDes, offering industry-leading reach. This design eliminates the need for retimers and other additional components, resulting in lower power consumption, reduced costs, and improved system reliability [1]. The router leverages deep buffering and intelligent congestion control to ensure lossless RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet) across distances exceeding 100km. This feature enables a truly distributed AI infrastructure that is not limited by power or space constraints at any single site [1].
Broadcom's stock has gained nearly 29% year-to-date, outperforming the NASDAQ 100 Index by over 10%. This growth is largely attributed to the ongoing AI frenzy and Broadcom's strong position in the Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) market [1]. The company's CEO, Hock Tan, has projected that the thirst for AI could drive the processor market for that segment to between $60 billion and $90 billion in sales within a few short years. Considering Broadcom's current revenue of slightly over $12 billion from such goods, the company is poised for significant growth in this sector [2].
