FROOT
Future-Proof, Trustworthy Telemetry for high-performance, high-availability networks.
FROOT Lab
Scalable Systems, Verifiable Intelligence
We design and evaluate next-generation cloud and AI infrastructure to make computing robust for society.
About the Lab
We build the systems that let AI and the cloud run Faster, stay Future-pROOf, and remain Trustworthy. From telemetry that sees everything to infrastructure that survives anything, the FROOT Lab turns hard problems in systems, networking, and security into infrastructure the next generation of AI can rely on.
ONSET
Optics-enabled network defenses against extreme terabit-scale DDoS attacks.
AI for Cloud Ops
Scalable, automated diagnosis of performance, resilience, and security problems in modern CI/CD.
