The key UX design challenge in achieving this outcome lies in creating an intuitive and efficient interface that allows users to seamlessly manage and optimize complex interconnect technologies across various scales, from chip-level to data center networks. Designers must balance the need for detailed control and monitoring of data movement with a user-friendly experience that abstracts the underlying complexity. The interface should enable users to easily visualize bottlenecks, configure scalable solutions, and leverage Intel's broad ecosystem of interconnect technologies, all while accommodating diverse user roles from silicon designers to network administrators. Ultimately, the UX must empower users to maximize system performance and efficiently manage data flow without requiring deep technical expertise in every aspect of the interconnect stack.
The growth of cloud services, the Internet of Things, and resource-heavy workloads like deep learning and other types of artificial intelligence (AI) are placing enormous demand on computing systems. But performance is about more than compute. Interconnect plays a crucial role in eliminating the bottlenecks that slow data movement.
Intel’s investments in interconnect technology are among the broadest in the industry. With a complete view of the ecosystem—from silicon to data center to wireless—we give direction to the industry to build systems and networks that run faster. At the heart of our exploration is how data moves, from its creation in ones and zeros to the experience it ultimately enables.
Our innovation focuses on scalable, standards-based solutions that empower the ecosystem to get the most from cutting-edge processor capabilities. At the chip and processor level, we’re opening the door for novel system designs. And as data centers scale and evolve and 5G is deployed, our interconnect technologies will provide the foundation for the best possible experiences.
