NextIO ExpressConnect(TM) PCI Express-based I/O Solutions Now Support Advanced Numerical Analysis
Deliver Financial Analysis and Vector Processing Functions at a Fraction
of the Cost
SAN FRANCISCO & AUSTIN, Texas–(EMWNews)–NextIO, a leader in the PCI Express-based I/O solution marketplace,
today announced their NextIO ExpressConnect™
product suite now supports advanced numerical analysis, financial
modeling, and vector processing functions. The support will enable
resource and I/O pooling and expansion for data centers and other
markets, such as the digital broadcast industry, financial services, and
telecommunications. The announcement took place at the Next Generation
Data Center Conference (NGDC), at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
NGDC is being held concurrently with the LinuxWorld Conference & Expo,
August 4-7 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
NextIO solutions deliver 100X performance over standard x86 I/O models
at a fraction of the cost. Any dense computing environment that requires
GPUs for financial or numerical analysis or vector processing can now
use off-the-shelf hardware. Traditionally, these solutions require
dedicated servers that are not only expensive but also may require
additional installation, programming and maintenance.
The NextIO ExpressConnect products are end-to-end connectivity
leveraging industry standard PCI Express (PCIe) technology. As an event
sponsor, NextIO will be demonstrating the N1400-PCM High-Speed Switch
Module and the N2800-ICA I/O Consolidation Appliance in the Blade.org
booth, No 476 at the conference. In the demo, advanced vector processing
and financial analysis functions will be offloaded to the GPU boards
located inside the N2800-ICA.
“Much of the technology expected to have a
direct impact on tomorrow’s data centers are
actually here today,” said Chris Pettey, CTO
and Co-founder of NextIO. “With NextIO,
companies can leverage their current infrastructure assets that can
result in immediate operational savings as well as improvements in
manageability, while optimizing I/O performance and utilization.”
In addition, Chris Pettey is presenting twice on the Center Stage. His
topic is “I/O Virtualization and Expansion:
Yesterday’s Promise; Today’s Reality.” In
this presentation, Pettey describes how shared I/O resources offer
opportunities for their higher utilization and help servers reach
greater efficiency, while dramatically cutting power requirements.
The N1400-PCM High-Speed Switch Module enables blade servers to expand
their PCIe signals outside of the chassis. It delivers a combined 35Gbps
of I/O throughput external to the chassis for connectivity to standard
PCIe devices. The N2800-ICA enables flexible configuration of standard
PCI Express devices for I/O expansion, partitioning, and virtualization.
It offers up to 14 full-length, full-power PCI Express devices to be
connected to and partitioned among multiple blade or rack servers.
