There are two endpoints in any network connection, and you have to focus on both the server adapter and the switch to get the best and most balanced performance out of the network and the proper return on what amounts to be a substantial investment in a cluster. …
One of the things that high-end network adapter and switch maker Mellanox Technologies got through its $811 million acquisition of network processing chip maker EZchip last September was a team that was well versed in massively parallel processor chip design, and one that could make Mellanox a potential player in the server chip space. …
It has been a long time since the dominant architecture in the datacenter has been monolithic systems running siloed applications fed by a three tier network. …
For decades, HPC centers were on the bleeding edge of any technology, but enterprises comprised most of the sales volume and so there was a bifurcation of those technologies. …
HPC centers like to boast about the details of their supercomputing systems because they are political machines as much as they are tools for running simulations. …
