There was an interesting discussion over in one of the Cisco forums on how to calculate your WAN speed. Those of you who read my last post know that packet loss, latency, and bandwidth all play into ...

If memory bandwidth is holding back the performance of some of your applications, and there is something that you can do about it other than to just suffer. You can tune the CPU core to memory ...

Microprocessor-based systems are ideal for executing an essentially infinite number of tasks. The host microprocessors support a limited set of instructions that can combine to produce incredibly ...

Traditional approaches to data center networking cannot satisfy the scale, bandwidth, latency and cost points required for evolving data center software architectures. Fibre Channel and InfiniBand ...

Users comparing throughput numbers for PCI Express and PCI-X may find the experience confusing. That’s because the nature of the two architectures makes apples-to-apples comparisons more difficult.

Peer-to-peer computing is allowing blockchain to aggregate unused compute cycles, storage space and network bandwidth while rewarding those who offer up excess capacity. One analyst called the ...

Many of the metrics that companies currently use to determine and market their products' performance have become outmoded and need a new approach. Measurements commonly assigned to system ...

Analysis If you thought AI networks weren't complicated enough, the rise of rack-scale architectures from the likes of Nvidia, AMD, and soon Intel has introduced a new layer of complexity.… Compared ...
