Mellanox® Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MLNX), a
leading supplier of end-to-end interconnect solutions for data
center servers and storage systems, today announced that InfiniBand
solutions were chosen in nearly four times more end-user projects
in 2016 versus Omni-Path and five times more end-user projects
versus other proprietary offerings as shown in the November release
of the TOP500 list. This demonstrates an increase in both
InfiniBand usage and market share. InfiniBand accelerates 65
percent of the total HPC systems on the list and 46 percent of the
Petaflop infrastructures. Mellanox continues to connect the fastest
supercomputer on the list, delivering highest scalability,
performance and efficiency. Mellanox Ethernet solutions connect all
of the 40 Gigabit Ethernet systems and the first 100 Gigabit
Ethernet system.
“InfiniBand’s advantages of highest
performance, scalability and robustness enable users to maximize
