How Ethernet RDMA Protocols iWARP and RoCE Support NVMe over Fabrics

NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) over Fabrics is of tremendous interest among storage vendors, flash manufacturers, and cloud and Web 2.0 customers, Because it offers efficient remote and shared access to a new generation of flash and other non-volatile memory storage, it requires fast, low latency networks, and the first version of the specification is expected to take advantage of RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) support in the transport protocol.

Evolution of automation in data center cooling

Siemens

Cooling accounts for the largest part of electrical energy consumption in data centers after IT. An integrated management solution can monitor and manage data center cooling systems and related air flows. Automating cooling processes and implementing technologies like artificial intelligence can help you to take your data center operations to the next level. Watch our webinar to learn how to improve thermal reliability, optimize equipment maintenance and reduce operational costs.

5G Laying Groundwork for a Completely Digitalized and Connected Future

5G, with its gigabytes data throughput and ultralow latency, can access numerous high-value sectors such as 3D robotic control, virtual reality monitoring, and remote medical control that earlier technologies could not. Over the last two years, we have seen an increasing number of consumer network rollouts and field testing. Furthermore, we are seeing some of the most prominent industry companies begin to implement 5G in their businesses. This is only the beginning of how 5G will eventually alter and accelerate breakthroughs in industries like automotive, entertainment, computing, manufacturing, and ultimately the way we work and live.

Is legacy GIS failing network infrastructure companies?

In a webinar not to be missed, ‘Is legacy GIS failing network infrastructure companies?’, our panel of experts explore this strategic question in depth and set out recommendations for network operators facing legacy GIS challenges. This webinar is now available to view on demand. Network infrastructure providers are dealing with increasingly complex ecosystems involving a wide range of software applications that support many different field construction and maintenance activities. Core to a technology strategy is a GIS solution, but most were designed 20-30 years ago for the creation and maintenance of paper maps that record network assets.

Network Timing in an IP Infrastructure

Peter Schut is back in the sixth webinar in Axon’s Broadcast IP 101 series, this time examining timing, namely PTP, for professional essence-over-IP systems such as based on SMPTE ST 2110. Timing needs to be rock solid in studio settings where many signals are mixed together, so your PTP system needs to be too. SMPTE 2059-2 standardises the use of PTP timecode (IEEE 1588) in broadcast. It’s important to understand how master clocks and slave clocks work, plus there is talk of ‘transparent’ and ‘boundary’ clocks in switches. Getting the architecture right is key remembering that one important different between IP timekeeping and black and burst time keeping is that the communication is two-way.
