## Resource

It can seem like GPUs get all the headlines when it comes to AI workloads, but there are a lot more challenges when it comes to handling massive training jobs. We talk to Pradeep Vincent, Oracle’s Executive Vice President & Chief Technical Architect of OCI, about the importance of power and the oft-overlooked networking in large-scale AI clusters, particularly as we approach multibuilding scale, and potentially multi-campus.
