Cornelis Omni-Path Express Gateways are part of an end-to-end product family providing purpose-built fabrics for High Performance Computing (HPC), High Performance Data Analytics (HPDA), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) that deliver high performance with breakthrough value. The Cornelis Omni-Path Express Gateways leverage investments in existing storage systems and network resources requiring access to a Cornelis Networks Omni-Path Express fabric.
Cornelis Omni-Path Express scale-out interconnect
Unprecedented demands on the scale-out interconnect are being driven by advances in artificial intelligence, high performance data analytics, and traditional modeling and simulation environments, coupled with extremely capable processing and storage infrastructures.
Cornelis Omni-Path Express is the next generation of high performance fabrics, a proven hardware foundation combined with the OpenFabrics Interfaces (OFI) framework, that delivers the industry’s lowest latency, highest message rate, and best collectives performance, all at the industry's lowest CPU utilization.
Cornelis Omni-Path Express to Ethernet or InfiniBand Gateway Solutions
Cornelis Omni-Path Express Gateways offer multiple connectivity options to enable bridging to Ethernet networks and InfiniBand fabrics. Storage systems deployed with either interface can now be easily connected to an Omni-Path Express HPC/HPDA/AI fabric with a cost-effective turnkey appliance. Other Ethernet- or InfiniBand-enabled systems can also leverage this capability to connect to Omni-Path Express fabrics through the Gateway.
The Cornelis Omni-Path Express Gateway Ethernet-connected solution contains a 2 x 100 GbE interface to communicate traffic to and from two Omni-Path Express Host Fabric Adapters (HFA), supporting up to 200 Gb/s through the Gateway.
The Cornelis Omni-Path Express Gateway InfiniBand-connected solutions are offered with either a 2 x 100 Gb/s EDR interface or a 200 Gb/s HDR interface to communicate traffic to and from two Omni-Path Express HFAs, supporting up to 200 Gb/s through the Gateway.
Choose from industry standard IP forwarding and LNET protocols to meet the connectivity needs of your environment with either the Ethernet-or InfiniBand-connected Gateway solutions.
Fault tolerance is readily configurable on Cornelis Omni-Path Express Gateways employing IP protocols with the capability to enable port-to-port and Gateway-to-Gateway failover. Failover and high availability are implemented using standard network protocols across multiple IP Gateways. Similarly, the LNET protocol provides fault tolerance and load sharing capabilities to suit system requirements.
