Exploring networking patterns for deploying large-scale AI workloads in Azure.

Introduction

As AI workloads become more distributed, network architecture plays a crucial role in system performance and reliability.

Key Patterns

1. Hub-and-Spoke for AI Services

  • Central hub for shared services
  • Dedicated spokes for different AI workloads
  • Optimized data paths for model serving

2. Multi-Region Model Deployment

  • Global load balancing strategies
  • Region failover patterns
  • Cross-region data synchronization

3. Network Security for AI Systems

  • NSG best practices
  • Service endpoints vs Private endpoints
  • Zero-trust implementation

Next Steps

Future posts will cover implementation details for each pattern.
