Sun Multithreaded 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) Networking Cards

Industry's First Multithreaded 10GbE Networking Cards
With parallel processing and chip multithreading (CMT) technologies becoming more pervasive, high performance applications are now more dependent on I/O throughput and memory latency for performance gains. Oracle's Sun multithreaded 10GbE networking cards help accelerate application performance by optimizing I/O throughput within environments that utilize parallel threads. Based on software optimized for multithreaded networking design, the networking cards can provide the critical bandwidth and granular resource allocation required for parallel applications and high-speed networks.

Key Applications

Fast database access and backup
Large data warehousing
Web infrastructure
Cluster computing and HPC/Grid
Video streaming
