Data processing units (DPUs) have emerged as valuable complements to central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) in managing and optimizing workloads.
DPUs are designed to offload communication networking tasks from CPUs and GPUs, thereby optimizing the workload for cloud and data centers. By reducing the workload on expensive CPUs and GPUs, DPUs contribute to cost-saving measures. MangoBoost, a DPU developer, has secured a $55 million Series A funding round for its hardware and software solutions.
