Abstract

Data centers, cloud and edge computing platforms are absorbing heavy AI-based workloads. This raises two concerns: how to reduce the networking overhead by host processors in order to focus only on AI-processing, and how to provide quantum resilient level protection for any connection running such workloads. In this paper, we will show case the concept of zero-tax data center, which is achieved through offloading of networking functions from the host to the network. In particular, the implementation of postquantum cryptography algorithms providing quantum resilient links and how the processing its complex processing is moved from host to network through the utilization of data-processing units.
