① SA Source

Context Before

The BlueField-4 DPU sits in center of the front of the chassis between the left-side Orchid module and the management module. BlueField-4 is made up of a Grace CPU and a CX-9 NIC. The module also comes with 128GByte of on board LPDDR5x, 512Gbyte of on board pluggable SSD and an integrated AST2600 BMC from Aspeed.

Evidence

In the reference design of the VR NVL72 compute tray, BlueField-4 acts as a DPU providing up to 800Gb/s of front end networking capability.

Context After

However, just like BlueField-3, BlueField-4 will only be adopted by a handful of customers, namely CoreWeave and other smaller Neoclouds customers who have less customization capability. For most hyperscalers’ deployments, the BlueField-4 module will be replaced with their in-house frontend networking module or simply with a CX-9 which is cheaper.

② Atomic Claim

在 VR NVL72 compute tray reference design 中,BlueField-4 作為 DPU,提供最高 800Gb/s front-end networking capability。
