Intel® True Scale Fabric Architecture: Enhanced HPC Architecture and Performance

Key Findings infiniBand* Architectures – There are two types of InfiniBand architectures available today in the marketplace, the first being the traditional InfiniBand design, created as a channel interconnect for the data center. The latest InfiniBand architecture was built with HPC in mind. This enhanced HPC fabric offering is optimized for key interconnect performance factors, featuring MPI message rating, end-to-end latency and collective performance, resulting in increased HPC application performance.
