In this video from the DDN booth at SC19, Scot Schultz from Mellanox presents: Connecting Visions: HDR 200GB/sec InfiniBand.

HDR 200Gb/s InfiniBand accelerates 31 percent of new InfiniBand-based systems on the current TOP500, including the fastest TOP500 supercomputer built this year. The results also highlight InfiniBand’s continued position in the top three supercomputers in the world and acceleration of six of the top 10 systems. Since the TOP500 List release in June 2019, InfiniBand’s presence has increased by 12 percent, now accelerating 141 supercomputers on the List.

InfiniBand is the leading high-performance interconnect on the TOP500 list and continues to grow and is now accelerating 141 supercomputers. These systems are leveraging InfiniBand to enable innovation and research in vertical markets such as astronomy, medicine, AI, quantum mechanics, mechanical engineering and much more.

The world-wide strategic race to Exascale supercomputing, the exponential growth in data we collect and need to analyze, and the new performance levels needed to support new scientific investigations and innovative product designs, all require the fastest and most advanced HDR InfiniBand interconnect technology. HDR InfiniBand solutions enable breakthrough performance levels and deliver the highest return on investment, enabling the next generation of the world’s leading supercomputers, hyperscale, Artificial Intelligence, cloud and enterprise datacenters.”
