The New Xilinx SmartNIC Looks More Like a 100Gbps Arm-based Coprocessor Latest entry into the server disaggregation space has an FPGA chip and an Arm SoC, with a way to split network traffic between the two — and maybe a new way to make use of that FPGA. It’s being called a high-bandwidth, “smart” network interface controller — the latest in an emerging line of distributed processing components for so-called “disaggregated” servers. But a close examination of Xilinx’s new ...

Gate array for data plane, CPU cores for control plane Share Copy Xilinx will today launch a network card that not only offloads acceleration to an FPGA but also to an on-board NXP chip containing 16 Arm CPU cores. The Cortex-A72 Arm core cluster is expected to run Linux – Ubuntu and Yocto are supported – and act as the control plane, and the gate array as the data plane chugging through packets flowing in and out of the card. The addition of extra CPU oomph is perhaps a sign that c...

Xilinx reveals the Alveo SN1000, the "industry's first" composable SmartNIC that can accelerate a variety of storage, network and security data center workloads.
