LAS VEGAS, Aug. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- VMworld 2016
– QLogic®, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cavium, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CAVM) to showcase multiple virtualization and flash
storage technologies at VMworld 2016 in QLogic booth 654, Brocade
booth 935 and Lenovo booth 2023, further underscoring its server
virtualization, and network and storage connectivity
leadership. QLogic will be demonstrating a wide array of NVMe
flash storage optimization, Virtual Machine Identification (VMID),
intelligent storage offloads and Network Partitioning (NPAR)
technologies.
The industry's first Virtual Machine Identification (VMID)
demonstration, in collaboration with Brocade, provides end-to-end
visibility and insight into application performance for VMware ESXi
with QLogic Enhanced Gen 5 and Gen 6 Fibre Channel adapters. Visit
Brocade booth 935 this week to see how:
- QLogic StorFusion™ VMID technology tags individual Fibre
Channel frames with Virtual Machine IDs enabling the delivery of
application level services to virtual workloads in a QLogic Gen 6
Fibre Channel infrastructure
The NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) focused demonstrations deliver
customer choice in fabrics and significantly reduce latency and CPU
utilization for the growing flash-based storage market. These
demonstrations at QLogic booth 654 include:
- NVMe over Fabrics with Fibre Channel – running on QLogic
Gen 6 (32Gb) Fibre Channel (FC) Adapters, the demonstration shows
how NVMe-oF using FC extends the reliability, availability and
performance of existing FC investments for next-generation storage
and reduces overall latency on FC networks.
- NVMe over Fabrics with Ethernet – showcasing the
benefits of QLogic's latest FastLinQ™ 25Gb Ethernet
(25GbE) Adapters with RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), the
NVMe-oF using Ethernet demonstration leverages the Cavium XPliant
3.2Tb Protocol Independent Ethernet Switch and extends NVMe over a
large-scale Ethernet-based network using the efficiency and
performance of RDMA, while lowering overall latency on Ethernet
networks.
- NVMe Direct – leveraging QLogic FastLinQ 45000 Series
Controllers, the NVMe Direct demonstration enables high efficiency
and high-performance peer-to-peer interactions between QLogic 25GbE
RDMA NICs and NVMe flash storage, lowering CPU utilization and
increasing IOPS.
And a variety of QLogic 10GbE Ethernet adapter technologies will
be the focal point of sessions delivered in Lenovo Booth 2023.
These include:
- Virtualize Your Network: Learn how QLogic Ethernet
offerings can improve data center efficiency with features
such as NIC Partitioning (NPAR) and Single Root I/O Virtualization
(SR-IOV). Monday, Aug. 29th
2:00pm – 2:15pm.
- QLogic StorFusion™ Technology: Learn how server and
storage administrators can improve performance, simplify deployment
and increase availability with QLogic Fibre Channel (FC) adapters.
Monday, Aug. 29th 5:30pm – 5:45pm.
- Storage Offloads: Learn how QLogic 10GbE iSCSI and FCoE
offloads reduce the workload on server CPU, freeing up critical
resources to accelerate virtualized business applications and
maximizing VM density. Tuesday, Aug.
30th 11:15am – 11:30am.
