InfiniBand Cluster Interconnect Performance on HP-UX 11iv2

Overview HP-UX InfiniBand cluster interconnect solution offers 4.6usec 1-way latency and a single stream bandwidth of 760MB/s and 924MB/s with aggregated streams, all using industry standard technologies and off-the-shelf components. The solution scales well across multiple HCAs as well as multiple connections enabling an overall improvement for real world applications. The HP-UX InfiniBand cluster interconnect solution supports both point-to-point and switch configurations without any negative impact on the application performance. This paper presents the performance characteristics and capabilities of the recently announced InfiniBand (IB) cluster interconnect product on HP-UX 11iv2 platforms.
