A new Blackwell architecture by Nvidia – a new milestone in the evolution of GPUs

At the GTC March 20224 event, NVIDIA presented a new chip architecture Blackwell as well as B200 GPUs based on it together with Grace Blackwell GB200 chips where both architectures will be combined. 

The B200 GPU has 208 billion transistors compared to 80 billion H100/H200, previously used in data centers, offering 20 petaflops of AI performance per single GPU (VS. 4 petaflops of H100). Such a chip will feature 192 GB HBM3e memory with up to 8 TBps of bandwidth.v

Strengthening Web Stack Security (LAMP) with Network Service Isolation per VM Systems

​Web stack is a collection of various open-source soft such as programming language of the server side, operating system, database server, and web server. The most widely used stack is called LAMP. This name is a shortening for Linux, Apache server, MySQL, and PHP (in some cases it might be Python or Perl). For security reasons, the best variant is to run various network services on separate virtual machines or systems. With such a system, that is obvious that potential attackers cannot crack lots of services.
