Recent benchmarks demonstrate T6 Unified Wire adapters deliver up to full-line rate 100Gb/s performance using the NVMe/TCP protocol. In addition, T6 delivers TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE)-based NVMe/TCP hardware acceleration for storage target and initiator functions over TCP/IP networks, providing unparalleled performance and CPU efficiency. These adapters are for any NVMe/TCP storage solution, allowing businesses to migrate to industry-standard networking, attain enormous scale, remove any vendor lock-in, and support full security for data-at-rest and in-motion.

The company’s NVMe/TCP test results demonstrate increased performance and reduced costs, while providing improved NVMe integration over existing datacenter IP networks. T6 NVMe/TCP solution is capable of offloading TCP/IP processing of Kernel and User space SPDK NVMe/TCP target to hardware at up to 100Gb/s. It provides a low latency, high throughput and CPU-efficient Ethernet solution for connecting high performance NVMe SSDs over a scalable, congestion controlled and traffic managed fabric.

The complete T6 100GbE NVMe/TCP (TOE) benchmark paper, detailing the hardware/software configuration used and results achieved, is available.

As NVMe storage deployment across industry-standard TCP/IP gains momentum, we are gratified at Chelsio T6 Unified Wire delivering the highest performance and efficiency for NVMe/TCP, demonstrating our technology leadership in the space,” said Kianoosh Naghshineh, CEO. “Our hardware offload-based NVMe/TCP acceleration solution enables our customers to take advantage of operational and cost advantages of composable and disaggregated storage architectures, using flexible and future-proof designs.

Boosting application performance, efficiency, and effectiveness of server CPUs are key priorities for legacy and software defined datacenter environments,” said Greg Schulz, senior analyst server storage, StorageIO. “The Chelsio NVMe over Fabrics 100GbE NVMe/TCP (TOE) demonstration provides solid proof of how high-performance NVMe SSDs can help datacenters boost performance and productivity, while getting the best ROI of datacenter infrastructure assets, not to mention optimize cost-of-ownership at the same time. It’s like getting a three for one bonus value from your server CPUs, your network, and your application perform better, now that’s a trifecta!
