NVIDIA Scalable Hierarchical Aggregation and Reduction Protocol (SHARP) is designed to accelerate data processing by offloading collective operations from the CPU to the network. This offloading reduces latency and increases throughput, making it ideal for high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. SHARP is integrated into the NVIDIA Quantum-2 (NDR) clusters, providing enhanced performance for data-intensive applications.
