Fabric Cluster

Available in VPC

Fabric Cluster is a service providing high-performance computing and networking between servers. You can cluster up to 140 servers per cluster. High-performance networking of up to 400 Gbps is provided between servers in the same cluster, providing a performance that is faster and higher than a regular network interface. In addition, you can easily expand the workload distributed among servers and efficiently process them.

Note

Fabric Cluster can only be used in Bare Metal Server (GPU A100) in the VPC environment currently.
