<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt;padding-left:36pt;"><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><u>Abstract:</u></span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt;padding-left:36pt;"><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">Fabrics technologies are continuously evolving and System Administrators are under pressure to deploy new fabric technologies in a continuous
quest to improve application efficiency and programmer productivity.  Increasingly, that means integrating multiple, heterogeneous fabrics. This applies to both the applications, and overall system design (Compute Cluster, Storage Networks, etc.).  While choosing
between various fabric technologies depending on their features the system administration has to consider the challenges these underlying shared fabric stack code brings.  Due to this shared common code base,  challenges can arise when trying to use them on
the same system at the same time, and/or being able to interchange the technology on a system (namely InfiniBand and Omni-Path).  Ability to integrate heterogeneous fabrics into their environments requires knowledge of the network layer deployment as well as
the associated system/kernel dependencies and effects. In this talk, system administrators can get an understanding of some of the biggest challenges they face regularly. </span></font></div>
