GigaIO Partners with NGD Systems to Explore High-Performance Computing Interoperability

CARLSBAD, Calif., Nov. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- GigaIO, Inc., an innovator of data center network architecture and connectivity solutions, today announces a new partnership with NGD Systems to advance high-performance computing (HPC) interoperability. The team will use GigaIO's FabreXtm platform and NGD Systems Computational Storage products to streamline data management in non-volatile memory express (NVMe) architecture.

GigaIO's newest innovation, FabreX, is a hyper-performance network that dramatically accelerates advanced scale computing performance by delivering improved resource utilization and optimal user flexibility. Similarly, NGD Systems Computational Storage products are processing platforms that allow applications to smoothly operate with minimal data traffic and decreased central processing unit (CPU) memory requirements.

"FabreX was developed to address today's data-intensive networks," says Alan Benjamin, CEO and president of GigaIO.  "When our teams plugged NGD's products into the FabreX Resource Box, we were thrilled to discover that the NGD products worked perfectly from the start and FabreX enabled seamless interoperability."

"NGD Systems is proud to work with GigaIO to develop a deployment model for computational storage solutions within NVMe over fabric environments," says Eli Tiomkin, vice president of Business Development for NGD Systems. "The ability to combine the power of NGD Systems' computational storage devices with GigaIO's innovative NVMe over fabric technologies allows customers to extend NVMe storage solutions while providing a new way to manage that data locally."
