Low Latency Networks: RoCE Or iWARP?
By Todd Owens - 02 May, 2019 - Comments: 0

Today, Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) is primarily being utilized within high performance computing or cloud environments to reduce latency across the network. Enterprise customers will soon require low latency networking that RDMA offers so that they can address a variety of different applications, such as Oracle and SAP, and also implement software-defined storage using Windows Storage Sp... » read more

Getting Data Centers Ready For Composable Infrastructure
By George Hervey - 04 Apr, 2019 - Comments: 0

The data center networking landscape is set to change dramatically. More adaptive and operationally efficient composable infrastructure will soon start to see significant uptake, supplanting the traditional inflexible, siloed data center arrangements of the past and ultimately leading to universal adoption. Composable infrastructure takes a modern software-defined approach to data center imp... » read more

Making Things Simple With NVMe/TCP
By Nishant Lodha - 07 Mar, 2019 - Comments: 0

Whether it is the aesthetics of the iPhone or a work of art like Monet’s ‘Water Lillies’, simplicity is often a very attractive trait. I hear this resonate in everyday examples from my own life – with my boss at work, whose mantra is “make it simple,” and my wife of 15 years telling my teenage daughter “beauty lies in simplicity.” For the record, both of these statements general... » read more

Designing Networking Chips
By Ed Sperling - 07 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

Susheel Tadikonda, vice president of networking and storage at Synopsys, talks about what’s changed in the way networking chips are being designed to deal with a massive increase in data. One of those shifts involves software-defined networking, where the greatest complexity resides in the software. That also has a big impact on the entire design flow, from pre-silicon to post-silicon. htt... » read more

Should AI Mimic Real Life?
By Brian Bailey - 31 Jan, 2019 - Comments: 0

There is a lot we still do not know about how the human body and brain works. Today's machines are far from being anything like as capable, or power frugal, or having the ability to make decisions. True – machines have been made for highly specific tasks that can now beat a human. But there lies one of the human mind's greatest features – when it makes mistakes, it asks how it can do better... » read more

How To Build A Modern Network
By Tal Mizrahi - 05 Apr, 2018 - Comments: 0

There have, in recent years, been fundamental changes to the way in which networks are implemented, as data demands have necessitated a wider breadth of functionality and elevated degrees of operational performance. Accompanying all this is a greater need for accurate measurement of such performance benchmarks in real time, plus in-depth analysis in order to identify and subsequently resolve an... » read more
