For every industry and for every enterprise speedy system is a must thing. Since past few months, the hot topic in the Ethernet world is that 25GbE is coming and many vendors started shipping the end-to-end solutions with the adapters, switches and the cables that can support 25, 50 and 100 GbE.
Two major factors i.e. the performance and the cost matters the most when it comes to the better working and speedy outputs of the systems. While talking technology, we all want our systems to perform far better despite their age. Mellanox UK offers a wide range of solutions for better working of your systems.
Performance
Firstly, the servers are getting better and faster. A mid-range power server can easily drive 20 Gbs of network output while high servers can push 40-80 Gbs easily. Secondly, storage is getting faster and it was proven in a Mellanox demo with a brand’s storage space that a server with three NVMe and SSDs could sustain 95Gbs of throughput over a Mellanox 100 GbE link using the SMB direct protocol. Thirdly, the uncompressed videos need 12-26 Gbs of bandwidth per stream to capture, edit and render.
Cost
It really matters because if the cost of higher bandwidth will not be more, every random person will use it and the mid-range application servers and clients that need more than 10 Gbs but less than 25 Gbs. But what if your business needs more than 25 Gbs? Well, it’s not that difficult because you can easily use 40 GbE which is growing rapidly in cloud and enterprise data centres. And also there is an option of 50GbE that is offered by Mellanox UK which carries 25% more data. The part of cost savings is simply from using NIC and one switch port instead of two. And another reason is due to the 25, 50 and 100 signalling.
