NVIDIA has not announced ConnectX-7 but Mellanox has been following a pattern of implementing a new generation of Infiniband in one generation of adapter, then refining offloads in the next. NVIDIA NDR 400G Infiniband 1įor the new NDR generation, we get a portfolio of products including adapters, DPUs, switches, and cables.

As current systems are looking to HDR 200Gbps Infiniband, NDR 400Gbps Infiniband is the next stop now that the NVIDIA-Mellanox deal closed. Mellanox drove Infiniband to effectively double performance every generation and that is happening again. To that end, NVIDIA’s recent Mellanox acquisition is now yielding a NDR 400Gbps Infiniband line.

While there are future products that are still in the planning phase that could displace some of the markets, like Gen-Z, one of the tangible technologies aside from HPE Cray Slingshot that we know will power exascale supercomputers, is Infiniband NVIDIA Mellanox NDR 400Gbps Infiniband.

As supercomputers get larger and accelerators get faster, teams planning infrastructure need faster interconnects.
