Mellanox Unveils New Levels of Data Center IT Performance, Productivity and Efficiency.Mellanox 40Gb/s InfiniBand Products Paired With Intel[R] Xeon[R] Processor 5500 Series Provide IT Managers the Solution for Building Green and Effective Data Centers SUNNYVALE, Calif. & YOKNEAM, Israel -- Mellanox[R] Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :MLNX) (TASE TASE Tel Aviv Stock Exchange TASE The All Seeing Eye TASE Tactical Air Support Element TASE Thrust Assessment Support Environment TASE Telecontrol Application Service Elements (IEC communications protocol) :MLNX), a leading supplier of end-to-end connectivity End-to-end connectivity is a property of the Internet that allows all nodes of the network to send packets to all other nodes of the network, without requiring intermediate network elements to further interpret them. It was for the first time implemented in the CYCLADES-network. solutions for data center servers and storage, today announced that its 40Gb/s server and storage connectivity solutions enable a significant increase in performance and productivity for high-performance, unified and virtualized data center applications that utilize Intel[R] Xeon[R] Processor 5500 Series (formerly codenamed "Nehalem"). Mellanox's industry-leading 40Gb/s networking products have been proven to provide up to 2x performance gain with the new Intel[R] Xeon[R] Processor 5500, compared to previous 20Gb/s networking solutions with prior generation of Intel Xeon processors, while keeping the same envelope of power consumption. The combination provides the next generation IT platform for building the most efficient data centers. "As processor speeds continue to advance, the importance of having an interconnect fabric that provides the highest processor efficiency becomes critical," said Jie Wu, Research Manager, Technical Computing at IDC. "Mellanox InfiniBand adapters and switch products are a good complement to Intel's new line of Xeon processors, and together they provide greater performance gains to many applications in the technical computing space." "Overall platform efficiency and CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. and memory utilization rely heavily on interconnect bandwidth and latency, and Mellanox's broad line of highly-efficient 40Gb/s InfiniBand products ensure that CPU cycles are not wasted due to interconnect bottlenecks," said John Monson, vice president of marketing at Mellanox Technologies. "The combination of Mellanox 40Gb/s InfiniBand with 1us latency and Intel Xeon processor technology delivers extreme performance for the most demanding and mission-critical applications." "The Intel Xeon 5500 series processors are designed for high-performance computing High-speed computing, which typically refers to supercomputers used in scientific research. applications in enterprise and scientific environments, and maintaining a balanced platform between compute and I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output is key to our approach of delivering application and end-user visible results," said Jim Pappas, Director of Server Technology Initiatives at Intel. "By collaborating with Mellanox on server and interconnect optimization and tuning, we can efficiently deliver on customer needs for high-bandwidth 40Gb/s low-latency networks." Enterprise applications such as customer relationship management, database, virtualization An umbrella term for enhancing a computer's ability to do work. Following are the ways virtualization is used. Hardware Virtualization Partitioning the computer's memory into separate and isolated "virtual machines" simulates multiple machines within one physical computer. , and web services (1) Loosely, any online service delivered over the Web. Such usage appears in articles from non-technical sources, but not in IT-oriented publications, because definition #2 below describes the correct use of the term. as well as key vertical markets such as financial services The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view of the subject. Please [ improve this article] or discuss the issue on the talk page. , insurance services, and retail are demanding the highest possible performance from their computing systems. In addition, high-performance applications such as bioscience and drug research, data mining, digital rendering, electronic design automation, fluid dynamics fluid dynamics n. (used with a sing. verb) The branch of applied science that is concerned with the movement of gases and liquids. , and weather analysis also require the highest throughput to support the I/O requirements of multiple processes that each require access to large datasets to compute and store results. The combination of Mellanox 40Gb/s interconnect solutions and servers based on Intel Xeon processors delivers optimum performance to meet these challenges.
