29West and Voltaire Announce New Ultra Messaging Solution for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
13 April 2010 - 11:34PM
Business Wire
29West, now a part of Informatica, the market leader in
high-performance, ultra low-latency messaging solutions, and
Voltaire (NASDAQ: VOLT), a leading provider of scale-out data
center fabrics, today announced a new Ultra
Messaging® solution for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GigE)
that slices existing latencies by two-thirds on 10GigE, and
achieves application-to-application latencies on 10GigE as low as
seven microseconds. The solution enables high-frequency trading
firms to be more competitive with their high performance
algorithmic trading operations.
This fully integrated solution adds the Voltaire Messaging
AcceleratorTM (VMA) software to existing 29West Ultra
Messaging® applications, requiring no code changes and
shows very consistent latency across a wide range of message rates
and message sizes. While the tested solution used Voltaire’s
Vantage™ 8500 low latency 10GigE switch to achieve the optimal
results, the solution can be used on any industry-standard Ethernet
switching hardware.
Previously, the 29West-Voltaire solution was exclusively
available for InfiniBand fabrics. InfiniBand-based solutions
continue to deliver the lowest latencies – as much as 30% lower
than Ethernet-based solutions. The availability of the
29West-Voltaire solution on both InfiniBand and Ethernet means that
customers have a choice of data center fabrics that deliver low
latency for their high performance messaging systems.
“With the integrated Ultra Messaging® and VMA
software solution from 29West and Voltaire, customers have more
choice and flexibility to address their performance needs, which is
critical because in capital markets gaining valuable seconds can
equate to hundreds of millions of dollars in competitive
advantage,” said Greg Lorence, product manager for 29West. “The
performance that we've seen using Voltaire VMA over 10 Gigabit
Ethernet is truly impressive and the flexibility of the solution
affords our customers the ability to choose from a large number of
underlying network implementations, while still guaranteeing ultra
low-latency performance from their messaging and network
layers."
“While our proven solution has been deployed extensively over
Voltaire InfiniBand-based trading fabrics, we are proud to now
offer similar performance gains over 10GigE,” said Asaf Somekh,
vice president of marketing, Voltaire. “Working with 29West we’re
providing customers a quick route to achieving the lowest latency
multicast messaging on Ethernet.”
