Ethernet White Papers

• Red Hat Enterprise MRG with Mellanox ConnectX-2 10GigE NIC Deliver Determinism in Performance and Profitability (June 2010)
  Demanding datacenter applications require network infrastructures that can deliver reliable and deterministic performance. High-performance, low-latency networking solutions — combined with low-latency and deterministic performance-oriented software platforms — help deliver mission-critical application performance in the face of growing data and transaction volumes, and are able to handle sudden usage spikes without compromising performance. Red Hat Enterprise MRG with Mellanox ConnectX-2 EN with RoE delivers the performance, reliability, and guaranteed application response times demanded by today’s datacenters.
  
  
• ConnectX®-2 EN with RoE (April 2010)
  ConnextX-2 EN with RoE comes with many advantages and holds the promise to enable widespread deployment of RDMA technologies in mainstream data center applications.
  
  
• Cisco Nexus Switches and UCS Servers with Mellanox ConnectX®-2 EN with RoE for a Reliable and Low-Latency Data Center Infrastructure (April 2010)
  Demanding data center applications require network infrastructures that can deliver reliable and deterministic performance. High performance, low latency and lossless Ethernet fabrics serve as cornerstones in the delivery of mission critical application performance in the face of growing data and transaction volumes, and their ability to handle sudden usage spike without compromising performance.
  
  
• Delivering Unmatched Messaging Performance with IBM WebSphere LLM and Mellanox ConnectX 10 Gigabit Ethernet Products (April 2010)
  WebSphere MQ Low Latency Messaging running over low-latency Ethernet can be used to implement the high-performance, highly available messaging infrastructure needed for the next generation implementations of exchange systems.
  
  
• Exegy Ticker Plant & Mellanox ConnectX® EN with RoE Delivers Breakthrough for Co-located Trading (April 2010)
  Exegy’s Ticker Plant and its clients can ingest millions of messages per second from today’s extremely busy stock, option and futures markets. With the incorporation of the latest Mellanox ConnectX-2 EN with RoE adapters, customers need not hesitate to adopt this ground breaking technology since they can easily accommodate it over their familiar Ethernet networks.
  
  
• RNA Networks Memory Virtualization Solution Using RNA MVX and Mellanox ConnectX®-2 EN with RoE Accelerates Business Analytics by 10 Times (April 2010)
  ConnectX-2 EN with RoE enables RNA MVX to achieve 1/3rd the latency using other 10GigE NICs using TCP/IP (that is not using RDMA and kernel bypass enabled by RoE).
  
  
• The Case for Low-Latency Ethernet (March 2009)
  The industry momentum behind Fibre over Ethernet (FCoE) sets some significant precedence that raises questions about what is the best approach for server to server messaging (or inter process communication or IPC) using zero-copy send/receive and remote DMA (RDMA) technologies over Ethernet.



• ARISTA and Mellanox: Improving Application Performance While Reducing Complexity (October 2008)
  Advances in server virtualization, network storage, and compute clusters have driven the need for faster network throughput to address application latency and availability problems in the Enterprise. Yet today’s economic demands require the Enterprise maintain reasonable or reduced capital and operational cost parameters. This white paper will address how Mellanox and Arista Networks substantially improve application performance while reducing network complexity.



• The Case for InfiniBand over Ethernet (April 2008)
  Advances in server virtualization, network storage, and compute clusters have driven the need for faster network throughput to address application latency and availability problems in the Enterprise. Yet today’s economic demands require the Enterprise maintain reasonable or reduced capital and operational cost parameters. This white paper will address how Mellanox and Arista Networks substantially improve application performance while reducing network complexity.



• 7 Reasons to deploy a Mellanox ConnectX 10GbE (October 2008)
  Mellanox, the leader in the high performance interconnect technology has introduced the most compelling 10 Gigabit Ethernet silicon and adapter providing leading storage, virtualization and networking features. Mellanox dominates the 10 Gigabit Ethernet market by supporting several leading-edge technologies providing the utmost investment protection to data centers worldwide.
