Question #: 87
Topic #: 1
In a data center designed for AI workloads, what is a key difference in how GPUs and DPUs complement CPU functionality?
Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer
GPUs are designed for parallel processing of AI models (e.g., training/inference via CUDA), while DPUs (e.
g., NVIDIA BlueField) manage data center networking and security tasks (e.g., RDMA, encryption), offloading CPUs. This complementary role enhances overall efficiency. Option A is incorrect; GPUs and DPUs have distinct purposes. Option B misattributes memory management to GPUs. Option C mischaracterizes DPUs' role. NVIDIA's DPU and GPU documentation confirms Option D.
