PCI Express as a Data Center Fabric
SESSION: Interconnect and Advanced Architectures I
EVENT TYPE: Exhibitor Forums
TIME: 10:30AM - 11:00AM
Presenter(s):Ajoy Aswadhati
ROOM:155-B
ABSTRACT:
The presentation highlights how PCI Express (PCIe) is evolving by extending its dominance within the box, to be an external connectivity of choice within the rack to create clusters of server, switch and storage appliances. An PCI Express Fabric based on PCIe Gen3 and Gen4 inside the rack is complementary to InfiniBand and Ethernet in next-generation cloud-driven data centers. PCIe does not replace the existing network itself, but instead extends the benefits of PCIe outside the box by moving network interface cards (NICs) to the top of the rack -- or edge of the cluster -- thereby reducing cost and power while maintaining features offered by other network fabrics like InfiniBand and Ethernet.
PCIe is the lowest power, lowest cost solution, and it negates the cumbersome need to translate multiple interconnects, thus resulting in lower latency and higher performance.
