DESCRIPTION

14       VMA  Mellanox's Messaging Accelerator (VMA) boosts performance for mes‐
15       sage-based and streaming applications such as those found in  financial
16       services market data environments and Web2.0 clusters. It allows appli‐
17       cation written over standard socket API to  run  over  Ethernet  and/or
18       Infiniband  from  user-space with full network stack bypass. The result
19       is a reduction in latency by as much as 300%, an increase  in  applica‐
20       tion throughput by as much as 200%, higher packets rates and better CPU
21       utilization as compared to applications running on standard Ethernet or
22       InfiniBand interconnect networks.
