Voltaire, Inc.
InfiniBand is an industry standard high-performance interconnect for high performance computing ( HPC ) systems and enterprise applications. The combination of high bandwidth (> 10Gb/sec), low latency(<2 microseconds) and scalability makes InfiniBand the interconnect of choice to power many of the world's largest and fastest computer systems and enterprise data centers. Using the Voltaire Grid Backbone Family of products, multi-teraflop systems can be constructed from industry standard servers leveraging the InfiniBand standard. Voltaire's integrated Grid Backbone InfiniBand solutions deliver the highest performance, intelligent backbone for grid computing architectures, scaling across compute clusters, storage and IP networks.
As CPU architectures and server platforms get stronger with higher I/O capabilities the clusters' and grids' interconnects take center stage. The interconnect latency, bandwidth and CPU utilization determine the efficiency and the overall performance of HPC technical applications. Recent advances in clustered file I/O solutions allow file systems to scale to hundreds and thousands of nodes. Voltaire solutions release I/O bottlenecks in IPC, storage or both, enabling Fluent users to enjoy the highest bandwidths with the lowest latencies in the industry.
