Large-scale networked systems underpin cloud computing, AI, and distributed applications and services. The USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation 2026 (opens in new tab) (NSDI ’26) is a leading forum where researchers and practitioners share new research, insights, and advances in the design and operation of these systems.
Microsoft is proud to support NSDI ’26 as a returning sponsor, reflecting our ongoing commitment to advancing systems and networking research and engaging with the broader community. Microsoft researchers and engineering leaders are also serving on the program committee and in other organizational roles.
This year, 11 papers by Microsoft authors and collaborators were accepted to the conference, spanning datacenter and wide-area networks, AI systems, and cloud infrastructure. Together, they highlight advances in building and operating large-scale networked systems.
