OCI MSA settles optical scale-up architecture, but bandwidth scaling remains a manufacturing challenge
The OCI MSA has standardized the architecture for optical scale-up in AI systems. However, the pace of bandwidth scaling now depends on manufacturing advances, not architectural decisions. This shift moves the bottleneck from design to production for AI infrastructure scaling.
