Corporate Logo Usage
CORPORATE LOGO/SIGNATURE
The Mellanox Technologies signature is used to
represent the organization in all its activities. This
signature is the foundation to our identity and exists on
a wide variety of media and marketing materials.
The Signature consists of two elements:
1. the symbol
2. the logotype
Because the signature is a registered trademark, the
relationship between these elements should never be
altered. This ensure legal protection, builds recognition
and reinforces our positioning.

PRODUCT BRIEF
SWITCH SILICON
Mellanox continues its connectivity leadership by providing the highest
performing server and storage system interconnect solution for Enterprise
Data Centers, Cloud Computing, High-Performance Computing, and
embedded environments.
SwitchX, the fth generation switching IC from
Mellanox, further improves the company’s tradi-
tion of leading bandwidth, low-latency, and scal-
ability by integrating Virtual Protocol Interconnect
(VPI) technology - allowing InniBand, Ethernet
and Fibre Channel trafc to exist on a single
‘one-wire’ fabric. The industry-leading integra-
tion of 144 SerDes which are exible enough
to run 1 Gigabit to 14 Gigabit speeds per lane,
independent of network protocol, makes SwitchX
an obvious choice for OEMs that must address
end-user requirements for faster and more robust
applications. Reduced power, footprint and a fully
integrated PHY capable of connectivity across
PCBs, backplanes as well as passive and active
copper/bre cables allow interconnect fabrics
based on SwitchX to be utilized by network archi-
tects deploying leading, fabric-exible computing
and storage systems with the lowest TCO.
FDR
InniBand FDR technology moves from 8b10b
encoding to more efcient 64/66 encoding while
increasing the per lane signaling rate to 14Gb/s.
Using FDR 4x ports and Mellanox ConnectX
®
family of InniBand adapters, users can increase
end-to-end bandwidth up to 85% over previous
QDR solutions. Mellanox end-to-end systems can
also take advantage of the efciency of 64/66
encoding on 4x10Gb/s links using Mellanox

CASE STUDY
Mellanox server and storage interconnect products deliver down
to earth values that relieve the most critical pain points in the data
center today.
To be precise:
1. If you are virtualizing your servers, Mellanox
simply delivers you more virtual machines
per server
2. If you are connecting your servers to
the SAN and LAN, Mellanox reduces
the number of I/O adapters, cables and
switches
3. If you are running data warehousing, OLTP,
or financial services applications, Mellanox
delivers more transactions per second
using fewer servers, helping you make
faster and better decisions
4. If you are a cloud appliance or services
provider, Mellanox reduces equipment
acquisition costs dramatically while
improving your ability to exceed your SLAs
with customers by a handsome margin
5. Mellanox delivers all of the above benefits
while reducing your power consumption
for IO by 30% to 50%
These are a few examples of how Mellanox
is helping change the face of the data center
with high performance, scalable and efficient
server and storage connectivity products.
Below are five proof points relating how
fortune 500 customers are availing these
benefits to save money, build more efficient
and greener datacenters thereby improving
their competitive edge through better service
delivery to their end users and customers.
Case Study 1: Managed Hosting Services
Provider
60% more VMs per server --> 60%+ ROI benefits
The customer is a large managed hosting
services provider servicing web based travel
related transactions for their customers. The
volume of transactions per day is greater than
that of Amazon.com, requiring the customer
to manage its data center efficiently and scale
in a cost effective way. One of its datacenter
components serviced customers through the
use of applications in 256 virtual machines,
which prior to using Mellanox-based
solutions, required the use of 4 racks of 4U
servers, 16 edge switches, and 192 I/O cards.
The capital cost to build out that infrastructure
was $744,000. With Mellanox-based
products, without requiring any changes to
their applications or affecting services to its
customers, the new component build-out
required only $347,000, saving $397,000 in
capital expenses. The cost savings came
from the use of 1 rack of 1U servers, 2 I/O
Directors and 32 I/O cards that could still
support the 256 virtual machines. Operating
expenses came down through reduced floor
space and power requirements, bringing total
savings to more than $500,000 (amortized
over 3 years).

Mellanox’s 40GigE Passive copper cables provide robust connection to switches and network adapters
complying with 40GBase-CR4 specications. The 40GigE passive copper cables are compliant with the
IEEE 802.3ba and, SFF-8436 specications and provide connectivity between devices using QSFP ports.
40GigE passive copper cables ll the need for short, cost-effective connectivity in the data center. Mella-
nox’s high-quality passive copper cable solutions provide a power-efcient replacement for active power
connectivity such as ber optic cables.
Optimizing systems to operate with Mellanox’s 40GigE passive copper cables signicantly reduces poer
consumption and EMI emission, eliminating the use of EDC hosts.

KEY ADVANTAGES
SOLUTION BRIEF
©2011 Mellanox Technologies. All rights reserved.
Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) is used to
help manufacturers bring products to market
faster while maintaining a high-level of quality. The
faster companies can conduct tests and perform
product analysis, the bigger the benefits of using
CAE. Advances in software and server hardware
have set the stage for faster results, but manufac-
turers should not overlook a major performance-
robbing bottleneck: the server interconnect. To
gain dramatic improvements in CAE performance,
manufacturing firms are turning to Mellanox’s
InfiniBand-based solutions to speed the move-
ment of data between clustered servers.
The Manufacturer’s Challenge
Bringing products to market fast while meeting
quality requirements and adhering to safety stan-
dards has become a daunting challenge to manu-
facturers. To remain competitive, manufacturers
must deliver products as fast as possible. But if
quality suffers, customers won’t return. If safety
levels decline, significant recalls, lawsuits or
harmful publicity could ensue.
This is why manufacturing companies rely so
heavily on Computer Aided Engineering (CAE),
which helps simulate production and product
performance ahead of time. CAE allows problems
to be corrected before products reach the produc-
tion stage and end up in the hands of customers.
The challenge that has emerged today is how to
run commercially-available CAE software faster
and with more accuracy. Many software vendors
offer capable products, but bottlenecks commonly
occur in the hardware that runs the simulations
and analyzes the production processes.
Without sufficient computing power, these tests
sometimes take days and weeks to run. And be-
cause the tests take longer to run, product-devel-
opment teams are often forced to run fewer tests
in order to meet tight timeframes and to remain
competitive. This can lead to inaccurate testing
that often goes undetected until the products
hit the assembly line—when the cost to make
changes to the design of the products grows
exponentially.
Solving this application run-time challenge will
allow manufacturers to analyze their processes
in the fastest time possible and conduct more
granular testing. This in turn will allow for quicker
and more efficient production. A key element to
running tests more rapidly is choosing the right
hardware to run the CAE applications.
Today’s Solution
Large symmetric multi-processing machines
(SMPs) used to be the answer for generating
compute power in the data center. However,
these proprietary, expensive systems gave way to
cluster and grid architectures consisting of low-
cost commodity elements that offer comparable
performance.
Some companies try to scale CAE clusters
by adding more servers or moving to servers
with multiple cores. This approach can work for
smaller, simpler simulations, but the more com-
plex the analysis, the more likely the need to run
simulations across multiple servers where latency
is a major factor in determining performance.
The answer to speeding analysis and maximizing
return on CAE investments is not simply buying
more or bigger servers, but rather eliminating
bottlenecks to performance by employing the use
of a high performance interconnect.
Because of the ready-availability of Ethernet,
many of today’s clusters are built with Ethernet
as the interconnect. While Gigabit Ethernet-based
clustering is cheaper than SMP-based architec-
tures, it can be very inefficient. For applications
that rely on bandwidth or memory sharing, the ef-
ficiency (percentage of a server-CPU dedicated to
communications overhead) can be a concern.
Today, many manufacturers run CAE systems that
take advantage of InfiniBand-based high-speed

TECHNOLOGY BRIEF
©2011 Mellanox Technologies. All rights reserved.
The two commonly known RDMA (remote DMA) technologies are InniBand and iWARP (Internet
Wide Area RDMA Protocol). InniBand has enjoyed signicant success to date in HPC applications.
iWARP solutions over Ethernet have seen limited success because of implementation and deployment
challenges. Recent enhancements to the Ethernet data link layer under the umbrella of IEEE data center
Bridging (DCB) open signicant opportunities to proliferate the use of RDMA technology into mainstream
data center applications by taking a fresh and yet evolutionary look at how such services can be more
easily and efciently delivered over Ethernet. The proposed DCB standards include: IEEE 802.1bb –
Priority-based ow control, 802.1Qau – Congestion Notication, and 802.1az – Enhanced Transmission
Selection (ETS) and DCB Capability Exchange. The lossless delivery features in DCB, enabled by Priority-
based Flow Control (PFC), are analogous to those in the InniBand data link layer. As such, the natural
choice for building RDMA services over PFC-based DCB Ethernet is to apply use InniBand-based native
RDMA transport services. The IBTA (InniBand Trade Association) has recently released a specication
called RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE, pronounced as “Rocky”) that applies the InniBand-based
native RDMA transport services over Ethernet. ConnectX-2 with RoCE (RDMA over Ethernet) implements
the RoCE standard to deliver InniBand-like ultra low latency and high scalability over Ethernet fabrics.
ConnextX-2 with RoCE is born out of combining InniBand native RDMA transport with Ethernet per the
IBTA RoCE specication. The data link InniBand-based layer 2 is replaced by Ethernet layer 2, as shown
in the gure below. The InniBand transport is applied over a PFC-based loss less Ethernet data link.

Software Interface: ConnextX-2 with RoCE is compliant with the Open Fabrics Alliance OFED
verbs denition and is interoperable with the OFA software stacks (similar to InniBand and iWARP).
ConnextX-2 with RoCE uses the proven and feature rich InniBand verbs interface available in the OFA
stacks. OFED v1.5.1 supports RoCE and ConnextX-2 with RoCE.
Transport Layer: ConnextX-2 with RoCE uses the InniBand transport layer, as dened in the IBTA RoCE
specication. The adaptation from InniBand data link to Ethernet data link is straight forward because
the InniBand transport layer was designed ground up to be data link layer agnostic. The InniBand
transport layer expects certain services from the data link layer related to lossless delivery of packets, and
these are delivered by a PFC enabled Ethernet data link layer. ConnextX-2 with RoCE inherits a rich set
of transport services beyond those required to support OFA verbs including connected and unconnected
modes, reliable and unreliable services. Built on top of these services is a full set of verbs-dened
operations including kernel bypass, send/receive, RDMA read/write, and atomic operations.

The security trading market is experiencing rapid growth in volume and complexity with a greater reliance
on trading software, which is supported by sophisticated algorithms. As this market grows, so do the
trading volumes, bringing existing IT infrustracture systems to their limits.
Middleware and networking solutions must not only deliver lower latency despite higher volumes,
but also sustain performance through market data trafc spikes while minimizing latency jitter and
unpredictable messaging outliers.
To address this challenge, two market leaders have come together to provide a eld-proven
infrastructure solution that combines best of breed enterprise messaging middleware and trading
transport infrustructure. The solution slashes end-to-end trading latency by analyzing each layer of
the infrastructure—server, storage, server stack and middleware, as well as switching and bridging
devices—and optimizing each part for minimum latency and maximum throughput, while keeping an eye
on overall cost.
29West has emerged as the standard in next generation messaging software and delivers an unbending
commitment to offering the lowest possible latency across the widest possible range of messaging
use cases. Similarly, Mellanox has evolved into the market leader in IT scale-out fabric infrastructure,
excelling in low latency software and switching solutions.
This report demonstrates the benets of a 29West middleware solution integrated with Mellanox’s low-
latency solution for high-frequency trading customers. Specically, this paper describes a benchmark of
the integrated solution that delivers application messaging at:
Latency under medium load
Message rates under 125K msg/sec, message size under 256 bytes
• Average latency under 9 µsec
• 99.9th percentile latency 45 µsec or lower
Latency under heavy load (high throughput)
Message rate up to 1,300,000 msg/sec, message size under 64 bytes
• Average latency under 18 µsec
• 99.9th percentile latency 70 µsec or lower
