Topology We built a dedicated backend network specifically for distributed training. To support large language models (LLMs), we expanded the backend network towards the DC-scale, e.g., incorporating topology-awareness into the training job scheduler. We designed a two-stage Clos topology for AI racks, known as an AI Zone.

Live traffic flow arrows demonstrate how Azure Express Routes, Firewalls, Load Balancers, Application Gateways, and VWANs connect in the Kentik Map, which updates dynamically as topology changes for effortless architecture reference. For example, Express Route metrics include data about inbound and outbound dropped packets.

The term has a literal engineering definition, that, in a nutshell, means the internal state of any system is knowable solely by external observation. Port numbers and IP addresses are less useful in traffic analytics. The concept of observability has taken hold in the DevOps, SRE and application performance monitoring (APM) space.
