[Haifux] [HAIFUX LECTURE] InfiniBand, RoCE and RDMA Verbs - Empowering Supercomputing and Data Center Interconnects by Dotan Barak

[Orna Agmon Ben-Yehuda]

Hello RDMA-ers (can you actually pronounce this?),

I heard there was a live talk this week, which is great.

Is there an interest in a second talk on the topic? Dotan suggested to
expand on writing code that uses InfiniBand, such that the talk would
actually contain code.

If you enjoyed the first and would like to go deeper, or if you did not
need the basics but want the advanced stuff, please have your say!

Thanks
Orna
