InfiniBand: High Performance and Superior Reliability

InfiniBand is the backbone of the SMART System architecture providing high bandwidth, very low latency to maximize system performance, system reliability, application resiliency, and high application availability. Built in security features and an adaptable network of continuous node discovery addresses hardware, software, and application errors by providing a self-reliant, self-repairing interconnect for the system. The serial technology used in InfiniBand provides performance that exceeds 3 GB/sec. InfiniBand technology is ideal for high performance embedded applications because it provides the low processor overhead, simplified network management, reliability, availability and serviceability, required for high performance computing applications. No other interconnect fabric is as robust. As a SMART fabric with supporting software, it provides high performance embedded users with high application availability which ultimately translates to lower cost of ownership and quicker deployment of embedded systems.
