In this slidecast, Gilad Shainer from Mellanox announces the world’s first HDR 200Gb/s data center interconnect solutions.
“The ability to effectively utilize the exponential growth of data and to leverage data insights to gain that competitive advantage in real time is key for business success, homeland security, technology innovation, new research capabilities and beyond. The network is a critical enabler in today’s system designs that will propel the most demanding applications and drive the next life-changing discoveries,” said Eyal Waldman, president and CEO of Mellanox Technologies. “Mellanox is proud to announce the new 200Gb/s HDR InfiniBand solutions that will deliver the world’s highest data speeds and intelligent interconnect and empower the world of data in which we live. HDR InfiniBand sets a new level of performance and scalability records while delivering the next-generation of interconnects needs to our customers and partners.”
Mellanox ConnectX-6 adapters, Quantum switches and LinkX cables and transceivers together provide a complete 200Gb/s HDR InfiniBand interconnect infrastructure for the next generation of high performance computing, machine learning, big data, cloud, web 2.0 and storage platforms. These 200Gb/s HDR InfiniBand solutions maintain Mellanox’s generation-ahead leadership while enabling customers and users to leverage an open, standards-based technology that maximizes application performance and scalability while minimizing overall data center total cost of ownership. Mellanox 200Gb/s HDR solutions will become generally available in 2017.
Ten years ago, when Intersect360 Research began its business tracking the HPC market, InfiniBand had just become the predominant high-performance interconnect option for clusters, with Mellanox as the leading provider,” said Addison Snell, CEO of Intersect360 Research. “Over time, InfiniBand continued to grow, and today it is the leading high-performance storage interconnect for HPC systems as well. This is at a time when high data rate applications like analytics and machine learning are expanding rapidly, increasing the need for high-bandwidth, low-latency interconnects into even more markets. HDR InfiniBand is a big leap forward and Mellanox is making it a reality at a great time.”
“The leadership scale science and data analytics problems we are working to solve today and in the near future require very high bandwidth linking compute nodes, storage, and analytics systems into a single problem solving environment,” said Arthur Bland, OLCF Project Director, Oak Ridge National Laboratory. “With HDR InfiniBand technology, we will have an open solution that allows us to link all of our systems at very high bandwidth.”
