Abstract

RDMA networking has historically been linked closely and almost exclusively with HPC infrastructures. However, as demand for RDMA networking increases in fields outside of HPC, such as with Hadoop in the Big Data space, an increasing number of organisations are exploring methods of introducing merged HPC and cloud platforms into their daily operations. This paper explores the benefits of RDMA over traditional TCP/IP networking, and considers the challenges faced in the areas of storage and networking from the perspectives of integration, management and performance. It also explores the overall viability of building such a platform, providing a suitable hardware infrastructure for a fictional case study business.
