Your organization is deploying a new InfiniBand-based storage network for real-time data processing. Ensuring high performance is critical, but at the same time, the network must be highly reliable to handle the lossless transmission of large datasets. The environment will scale over time, and both storage and compute traffic will share the same fabric. You must implement a solution that ensures high performance, scalability, and minimal packet loss under heavy loads. Which best practice is most effective for ensuring reliability and performance in a scalable InfiniBand deployment that handles both compute and storage traffic?
You are configuring an InfiniBand fabric to optimize high-throughput, low-latency communication for a large-scale HPC cluster. Which advanced InfiniBand feature allows you to ensure traffic prioritization and reduce congestion for critical workloads?
In the InfiniBand protocol stack, each layer plays a specific role in ensuring efficient data transfer and communication. Which of the following best describes the function of the data link layer in the InfiniBand protocol stack?
