Infiniband technology Here is a new SI thread on this technology: Subject 37223 I haven't had time to plow through this new thread to see what value there may be. Here is an article that explains Infiniband in pretty lay terms: computerworld.com As I posted last Tuesday, I think this may have implications for the following (1) Data Storage (EMC, NTAP, etc.) (2) Datacenters (EXDS, Global Center, etc.) By eliminating the need for an internal I/O bus system, architects will be rethinking how to package servers. Analysts at Illuminata Inc. in Nashua, N.H., say they think a server's footprint could be cut by as much as 60%, immediately benefiting crowded data centers by replacing hulking servers with more streamlined machines. (3) WIND and of course (4) Intel and anything else that comes to mind. saukriver
