Benefit of flexible multi-core server
Abstract
Socionext DDT is our proprietary switching technology. We use it for node-node connection to realize scalable computing system. Such scalability with the combination of low latency networking, one good example of use-case is data base system. Shared nothing type DB system consists of multi DB nodes and multi data nodes. The benefit of this system is high speed data searching because data are pre-distributed. Big challenge is how to minimize the bottleneck at node-node networking. There are high-end solutions, e.g. RDMA, but they cost. We offer DDT instead. As a simple benchmark, we examined MySQL cluster.
