NFS-RDMA SDK
Overview
NFS-RDMA over InfiniBand allows an NFS client and server to communicate using an RDMA capable transport. Benefits of using an RDMA transport include significantly low CPU utilization and higher throughput.
The Linux NFS-RDMA implementation runs on the OpenFabrics RDMA stack (OFED 1.2) and is optimized for the MTD2000 Storage Platform. This stack provides the software infrastructure and device driver support for Mellanox InfiniBand devices.
Benefits
- Boost NFS application performance
- Accelerate time to revenue
- Complete hardware, software, support package
- Open source and OFED 1.2 compatible
- Supports RHEL 5 and SLES 10
- Available now
