SUNNYVALE, CA and YOKNEAM, ISRAEL - June 15, 2016 - Mellanox(r) Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MLNX), a leading supplier of end-to-end interconnect solutions for data center servers and storage systems, today announced ConnectX-5, the most advanced 10, 25, 40, 50, 56 and 100Gb/s InfiniBand and Ethernet intelligent adapter on the market today. ConnectX-5 introduces smart offloading engines that enable the highest application performance while maximizing data center return on investment. Furthermore, ConnectX-5 is the first PCI Express 3.0 and 4.0 compatible adapter, enabling greater flexibility and future-proofing for the data center.
With the exponential growth of data and the increase in businesses that takes advantage of real-time data processing for high performance computing (HPC), data analytics, machine learning, national security and 'Internet of Things' applications, the market needs not only the fastest interconnect available, but also interconnect intelligence that can perform data algorithms as the data moves throughout the data center.
The new intelligent ConnectX-5 100G adapter enables the most advanced real-time in-network computing engines to unleash business opportunities and new technological developments.
"The new ConnectX-5 100G adapter further enables high performance, data analytics, deep learning, storage, Web 2.0 and more applications to perform data-related algorithms on the network to achieve the highest system performance and utilization," said Gilad Shainer, vice president, marketing at Mellanox Technologies. "Today, scalable computer and storage systems suffer from data bottlenecks that limit research, product development, and constrain application services. ConnectX-5 will help unleash business potential with faster, more effective, real-time data processing and analytics. With its smart offloading, ConnectX-5 will enable dramatic increases in CPU, GPU and FPGA performance that will enhance effectiveness and maximize the return on data centers' investment."
ConnectX-5 enables greater HPC performance with new Message Passing Interface (MPI) offloads, such as MPI Tag Matching and MPI AlltoAll operations, advanced dynamic routing, and new capabilities to perform various data algorithms. ConnectX-5 delivers the highest available message rate of 200 million messages per second, which is 33 percent higher than the Mellanox ConnectX-4 adapter and nearly 2X compared to competitive products.
ConnectX-5 is the first interconnect adapter to support PCI Express 3.0 and 4.0 connectivity options, and includes an integrated PCIe switch. For upcoming PCI Express 4.0 enabled systems, ConnectX-5 will deliver an aggregated throughput of 200Gb/s.
The new ConnectX-5 Accelerated Switching and Packet Processing (ASAP2) technology enhances Open V-Switch (OVS) offloading, which results in significantly higher data transfer performance without overloading the CPU. Together with native RDMA and RoCE support, ConnectX-5 will dramatically improve Cloud and NFV platform efficiency.
For storage infrastructures, ConnectX-5 introduces new acceleration engines for NVM Express (NVMe). NVMe over Fabrics (NVMf) enables end-users to connect remote subsystems with flash appliances, leveraging RDMA technology to achieve faster application response times and better scalability across virtual data centers. Storage applications will see improved performance and lower latency with the advanced NVMf target offloads that ConnectX-5 delivers.
Industry Supporting Quotes
"IDC research continues to show that InfiniBand is a network of choice for the world's fastest HPCs. Indeed, in a recent IDC study, 30 percent of HPC users surveyed indicated that InfiniBand was the interconnect used in their fastest HPC," said Bob Sorensen, research vice president, IDC. "Demands for growing HPC performance dictate that more efficient, capable, and intelligent networks will soon be needed to help manage the complex flow of data within a processor/storage fabric, relieve the computational processors from the overheard of data communications housekeeping, and add additional processing and network dataflow support within the network where and when it is needed.

Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Salesforce.com, and Palo Alto Networks would change the way we live and work.
“Selecting the North American Top 100 list was once again a very difficult process,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “The caliber of companies and the accomplishments demonstrated by the candidates was very impressive. But after much thought, rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to finalize on the North America winners. We believe Zadara Storage embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture.
As a repeat winner, Zadara Storage should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.” Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluated companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technological innovation and intellectual property, DNA of the founders, business model, customer footprint and addressable market. A review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their sector peers, allowed Red Herring to see past the “buzz” and make the list a valuable instrument of discovery and advocacy for the most promising new business models in North America, complement this assessment of potential.
“We are honored to be selected by Red Herring for this prestigious award for the second year in a row,” said Nelson Nahum, CEO of Zadara Storage. “We are pleased to be listed alongside previous winners such as Google, Skype, YouTube and eBay. Zadara’s success can be attributed to providing a unique and differentiated Zadara Storage Cloud solution to a rapidly growing market that is transitioning from rigid CapEx storage to flexible and agile OpEx Storage-as-a-Service.”
