U-Raja Koduri: Ukube bekungeyona i-Intel, i-AMD ibingeke ibe ne-ecosystem enengqondo

Umhlangano phakathi kwabaphathi be-Intel nabatshalizimali owenzeka ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ezedlule awuphawulekanga nje kuphela ngoba umemezele ukuhlela kabusha isu, futhi yamemezela nezinhlelo zokuqalisa ukusebenza 10 nm и 7 nm ubuchwepheshe. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, izinkulumo zezikhulu ezithile eziphezulu zaziqukethe izitatimende ezithakazelisa kakhulu neziyimpikiswano ngezihloko ezihlobene. Phakathi kwezikhulumi ezigqame kakhulu kwakukhona u-Raja Koduri, iPhini Likamongameli Omkhulu we-Intel, kanye nochwepheshe ohamba phambili ekwakhiweni kwezinhlelo nemidwebo.

Umbiko ka-Koduri emcimbini ubunikezelwe ohlelweni lwe-software olwakhiwe ezingxenyeni ze-Intel hardware. Kodwa-ke, phakathi nendaba, uthole isikhathi sokuqhathanisa indlela ye-Intel nalokho okwenziwa izimbangi zayo kule ndawo. Kuyahlekisa ukuthi akukho nelilodwa igama lanoma yiziphi ezinye izinkampani elamenyezelwa, kodwa bebekhuluma ngezimbangi ze-Intel, ezimakwe ngemibala - eluhlaza nokubomvu. Kunzima ukucabanga ukuthi ukufihla imibala okunjalo kungasebenza ngempela, ngakho-ke okwashiwo uCoduri ngokulandelayo kubangele ukudideka okuqotho kwabaningi. Iqiniso liwukuthi wathulula i-bile eningi ikakhulukazi embangi yakhe ebomvu, okungukuthi, empeleni, kumqashi wakhe wangaphambili.

Iqiniso liwukuthi kuze kube sekupheleni kuka-2017, u-Raja Koduri usebenze njengenhloko yophiko lwezithombe ze-AMD, ngakho-ke mhlawumbe unombono omuhle kakhulu wokuthi le nkampani yenzani nokuthi ikwenza kanjani. Kodwa-ke, inkulumo yakhe yayihlanganisa lesi simiso esilandelayo: “[I-AMD] inezakhiwo ezimbili, ayinayo inkumbulo noma isu lokuxhumanisa engike ngizwe ngalo, kanye ne-ecosystem kanjiniyela encane. Eqinisweni, ngaphandle kweminikelo yethu ebalulekile, bebengeke babe nesimiso semvelo esingasho lutho nhlobo.”

Kumelwe kushiwo ukuthi le nkulumo ithi iyimpikiswano ngokwayo. Kodwa okumangazayo ikakhulukazi ukuthi uRaja ubonakala ekhohliwe lokho yena ngokwakhe ayekwenza eminyakeni embalwa edlule. Lapho esebenza ezinhlwini "zombangi obomvu," wabamba iqhaza ekuthuthukisweni kwakho kokubili ibhasi le-Infinity Fabric interconnect kanye nokwakhiwa kwama-Radeon Instinct accelerators, aklanyelwe ngqo ukuxazulula izinkinga zobuhlakani bokwenziwa.

Kunzima ukukukholelwa, kodwa maphakathi no-2017 uRaja Koduri ofanayo egameni le-AMD washo okuhluke ngokuphelele: “I-Infinity Fabric isivumela ukuthi sixhumanise izinjini ezihlukene ndawonye ku-chip eyodwa kulula kakhulu kunangaphambili. Ngaphezu kwalokho, iyibhasi elixhumanisayo elinesivinini esikhulu ngempela, elibambeke kancane. Futhi lokhu kubalulekile ukuze sihlanganise zonke intuthuko yethu ngesivinini esikhulu nokusebenza kahle. I-Infinity Fabric izosebenza njengesisekelo sayo yonke imiklamo yethu yesifunda edidiyelwe yesikhathi esizayo.”

Kodwa esithombeni sikaCoduri somhlaba, i-NVIDIA imele imbangi enkulu kakhulu futhi ebucayi ye-Intel kune-AMD. Lokhu ngokwengxenye kwakungenxa yokuthi uRaja ngokuyisisekelo wenqabile ukuqaphela imisebenzi eminingi ye-AMD. Kanye nokuphika kwakhe ubuchwepheshe be-interconnect yombangi obomvu, akazange futhi afake imininingwane mayelana nentuthuko ye-AMD emkhakheni wobuhlakani bokwenziwa kusilayidi, waphinde wakushalazela ukuthi i-AMD ithola isisindo esithile njengomhlinzeki wedatha. izixazululo zesikhungo.

Asicabangi ukuqagela ukuthi kungaba yini isizathu salokho okukhethayo okukhethayo kochwepheshe behluzo be-Intel abahamba phambili, kodwa siyaqaphela ukuthi lokho uRaja akusho ngokuqhubekayo mayelana ne-software ecosystem ye-microprocessor giant kubukeka kuthakazelisa ngempela. Iqiniso liwukuthi nakuba i-Intel isebenza ezindaweni ezine ngesikhathi esisodwa - i-CPU, i-GPU, i-artificial intelligence ne-FPGA - inkampani ifuna ukulungiselela i-API eyodwa yonjiniyela ezobavumela ukuthi bakhe isofthiwe yemishini ye-Intel besebenzisa indlela eyodwa.

Ngakho-ke, kulindeleke ukuthi kube lula kakhulu umsebenzi wabahleli bohlelo manje okumele babhekane nemikhiqizo ye-Intel ehlukene njengokungathi sikhuluma ngezixazululo ezivela ezinkampanini eziyishumi ezihlukene - lesi singathekiso sivezwe nguCoduri ngokwakhe. Ngokuzayo, i-Intel ihlela ukusebenzisa umqondo we-oneAPI, lapho kuzokwakhiwa okuthile okufana “nesitolo” esisodwa semitapo yolwazi namathuluzi onjiniyela. Ngasikhathi sinye, inkampani ifuna ukuthembela ekuthuthukisweni komthombo ovulekile, njengoba i-AMD yenza manje.

“Sizibophezele emazingeni avulekile,” kusho u-Raja Koduri: “I-Intel inolwazi olungcono kakhulu lomthombo ovulekile embonini. Isibonelo, eqenjini lokuthuthukisa i-Linux kernel, sihamba phambili. " Ngamanye amazwi, i-Intel izonaka kakhulu i-software ecosystem ehambisana nemikhiqizo yayo yesikhathi esizayo. Futhi lokhu kusho ukuthi izixazululo ezinjalo ezithembisayo, njengezithombe ezihlukile, zizothola ukwesekwa kwesoftware kusuka ekuqaleni kokuba khona kwazo.
