he SilverStorm 9000 Multi-Protocol Fabric Directors support High Performance Computing (HPC), database clustering, and grid utility computing applications; they maximize cluster and grid computing interconnect performance while simplifying and reducing data center costs. The 9000 Fabric Director systems leverage the latest InfiniBand-based technologies to provide industry leading port densities, throughput performance, and ultra-low latency.

The 9000 family incorporates the innovative Virtual I/O Controller (VIC) technology. VIC modules installed in a 9000 system enable hosts on InfiniBand fabrics to transparently access either Fibre Channel or Ethernet networks or both. VIC modules utilize Virtual HBA and Virtual NIC technology creating a virtual pool of network and storage resource connectivity. VIC technology eliminates the cost and complexity of running multiple server physical connections for storage, network, and inter-processor communications, and allows each virtual network type to scale independently over a “single wire” connection.

The 9000 series Fabric Directors economically support most any cluster interconnect requirement. The family scales to support small networks with as few as 12 nodes using a single 2U chassis to multithousand node networks using multiple Fabric Director systems working in concert as a single high performance virtual fabric. To maximize fabric scalability, all 9000 systems use the same spine switching, leaf switching, and VIC option modules. All chassis types are slot-independent, which enable flexible switching capacity and port density depending on the number and type of option modules installed.
