 Mellanox® Technologies, Ltd. MLNX, a leading 
 supplier of high-performance, end-to-end interconnect solutions for data 
 center servers and storage systems, today announced that EDR 100Gb/s 
 InfiniBand solutions have demonstrated from 30 to 250 percent higher HPC 
 applications performance versus Omni-Path. These performance tests were 
 conducted at end-user installations and Mellanox benchmarking and 
 research center, and covered a variety of HPC application segments 
 including automotive, climate research, chemistry, bioscience, genomics 
 and more.
 
 
 Examples of extensively used mainstream HPC applications:
 
 <ul xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
 <li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="bwlistitemmargb">
 GROMACS is a molecular dynamics package design for simulations of 
 proteins, lipids and nucleic acids and is one of the fastest and 
 broadly used applications for chemical simulations. GROMACS has 
 demonstrated a 140 percent performance advantage on an 
 InfiniBand-enabled 64-node cluster.
 </li>
 <li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="bwlistitemmargb">
 NAMD is highly noted for its parallel efficiency and is used to 
 simulate large biomolecular systems and plays an important role in 
 modern molecular biology. Using InfiniBand, the NAMD application has 
 demonstrated a 250 percent performance advantage on a 128-node cluster.
 </li>
 <li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="bwlistitemmargb">
 LS-DYNA is an advanced multi-physics simulation software package used 
 across automotive, aerospace, manufacturing and bioengineering 
 industries. Using InfiniBand interconnect, the LS-DYNA application has 
 demonstrated a 110 percent performance advantage running on a 32-node 
 cluster.
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 Due to its scalability and offload technology advantages, InfiniBand has 
 demonstrated higher performance utilizing just 50 percent of the needed 
 data center infrastructure and thereby enabling the industry's lowest 
 Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for these applications and HPC segments. 
 For the GROMACS application example, a 64-node InfiniBand cluster 
 delivers 33 percent higher performance in comparison to a 128-node 
 Omni-Path cluster; for the NAMD application, a 32-node InfiniBand 
 cluster delivers 55 percent higher performance in comparison to a 
 64-node Omni-Path cluster; and for the LS-DYNA application, a 16-node 
 InfiniBand cluster delivers 75 percent higher performance than a 32 node 
 Omni-Path cluster.
 
 
 "InfiniBand solutions enable users to maximize their data center 
 performance and efficiency versus proprietary competitive products. EDR 
 InfiniBand enables users to achieve 2.5X higher performance while 
 reducing their capital and operational costs by 50 percent," said Gilad 
 Shainer, vice president of marketing at Mellanox Technologies. "As a 
 standard and intelligent interconnect, InfiniBand guarantees both 
 backward and forward compatibility, and delivers optimized data center 
 performance to users for any compute elements – whether they include 
 CPUs by Intel, IBM, AMD or ARM, or GPUs or FPGAs. Utilizing the 
 InfiniBand interconnect, companies can gain a competitive advantage, 
 reducing their product design time while saving on their needed data 
 center infrastructure."
 
 
 The application testing was conducted utilizing end-user data centers 
 and the Mellanox benchmarking and research center. The full report of 
 testing conducted at end-user data centers and the Mellanox benchmarking 
 and research center will be available on the Mellanox web site. For more 
 information please contact Mellanox Technologies.
