InfiniBand: What's Next?
The year 2003 is shaping up to become an important period for InfiniBand, the much-touted but little-seen high-speed interconnect technology.
Despite setbacks earlier this year, when Intel Corp. and Microsoft Corp., two founding members of the InfiniBand Trade Association, backed away from InfiniBand development efforts, smaller InfiniBand vendors have recently launched enterprise-ready products, highlighted by Mellanox Technologies Inc., JNI Corp., Topspin Communications Inc. and Paceline Systems Corp.
Such rollouts are expected to continue in 2003. Even better, last week, top-tier server vendors Dell Computer Corp., IBM and Sun Microsystems Inc. said they will deploy InfiniBand-enabled products over the next couple of years, answering the call of industry observers who say InfiniBand won't take off until larger server vendors embrace the technology and drive it deep into the enterprise.
