DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: Ethernet is poised to erode the InfiniBand market in the near future. High Performance Computing cluster architectures have started adopting low-latency, high-speed Ethernet due to its highly favorable performance, efficiency, and scalability. This is happening in the interconnect-fabric while InfinBand still has its hold with the cluster. Trends influencing this shift include:=0AEthernet bandwidths increased demand. The current 10 and 40G demand is making way for 100G in clusters and the need for 400G is anticipated in the future=0AShrinking gap between latency and pricing of Ethernet and InfiniBand=0AUnmatched distance and reach flexibility of Ethernet =0ADevelopments in big-fast Ethernet switches that are now aligned with compute and storage trends to create improved synergies=0ANadeem Zahid, at Extreme Networks, will share insights into how clients in oil & gas, seismology, bio-medical, meteorology and energy sectors can benefit from the enhanced deployment of high-speed and -performance Ethernet networks in HPC environments.
