A new IETF non-working group email list has been created.

List address: [email-masked]
Archive: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/rdma-cc-interest/
To subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/rdma-cc-interest

Purpose:
Traditional High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Remote Data Memory Access (RDMA) networks have been relatively small scale, custom, isolated network clusters involving careful tuning and manual configuration. In-network and incast congestion is seen as a key limitations in allowing these networks to scale. This list discusses what is needed to run HPC and RDMA networks at hyperscale on cloud-style infrastructure.  Research efforts have focused on addressing gaps in congestion management, scheduling incast traffic and improving the orchestration and manageability of supporting protocols, but standardization efforts appear stalled.  This list will discuss what can be done in the IETF to support running HPC environments and RDMA protocols at hyperscale.
