SOLUTION BRIEF

Intel® Cluster Ready

NetEffect™ Server Cluster Adapters

Clustercorp Rocks+®

Organizations seeking to deploy high-performance computing clusters now have the

means to reduce cost and risk. Intel® Cluster Ready solutions based on Clustercorp

Rocks+® and 10GbE iWARP-enabled NetEffect™ Server Cluster Adapters from Intel

deliver a simplied approach to selecting, deploying, and operating clusters.

The solutions achieve excellent performance over Ethernet fabrics using low-latency

iWARP technology while also beneting from fast provisioning and robust management.

Automated software installation and centralized updating help achieve efciencies

throughout the solution life cycle, and passing application and management trafc over

a single fabric simplies the network topology, further reducing costs.

High Performance and Simplicity from Low-Latency iWARP Technology Because Ethernet networks are ubiquitous, high manufacturing volumes help make them extremely cost effective. While that advantage alone makes the use of Ethernet fabrics for high-performance computing cluster traffic very attractive, there were two primary challenges. First, this era of high-performance multicore servers creates the need for network bandwidth higher than 1 Gigabit (1GbE is standard on most servers today).
