Based on Broadcom’s scalable 10/25/50/100G Ethernet controller architecture, NetXtreme®-E Series standard PCIe Networking Interface Cards (NICs) can be used to build highly scalable, feature-rich RoCE networking solutions in servers for Enterprise and Cloud-scale applications, including Telco. NetXtreme®-E Series addresses the performance and service demands of mega-scale data center networks for high throughput and advanced flow processing. Features such as TruFlow™ increase VM density up to 50 percent, freeing more CPU cycles for additional virtual machines. On-chip tunneling protocol processing for Geneve, VXLAN, and NVGRE provides up to a 5X throughput increase while lowering CPU utilization up to 90 percent compared to software-only solutions. NetXtreme®-E Series controllers also support advanced networking technologies such as RoCE, SDN and NFV, to facilitate the management of data networks and to enable service provider solutions.
