Nvidia Leads the Way in Software Defined Networking

Written by Stacy Madden | May 19, 2021 9:30:26 PM

Nvidia Corporation is a leading manufacturer of high-end graphics processing units (GPUs), mobile technologies, and desktop computers, igniting modern AI.  Defined as supercharged computing for the Da Vincis and Einsteins of our time, Nvidia has evolved the GPU into a computer brain "at the intersection of virtual reality, high performance computing, and artificial intelligence." Nvidia also boasts a sizable data center group, which in Q4 2020 delivered the biggest jump in year-on-year revenues, a growth of 97%, distinguishing themselves as the newly recognized leader in the software defined networking space.

Leveraging Nvidia's recent acquisitions of Cumulus, Mellanox, and VMWare, PivIT Global has now partnered with Nvidia to harness these leading networking technology experts in high-performance computing. This comprehensive partnership expands PivIT’s software-defined networking and offers customized choices with an impressive array of options for your IT ecosystems.

 

 

Nvidia’s GPU-accelerated server platforms align the entire data center server ecosystem and ensure that when a customer selects a specific server platform to match their computing application, they’ll experience the industry’s best performance.

How it All Began: Partnerships

Prior to the acquisition with Nvidia, PivIT partnered with both Mellanox and Cumulus to support a strong combination of brains and brawn to the customer mix. Cumulus focuses on interconnect solutions to increase data center efficiency — you might say the brains. Mellanox is a leading supplier of end-to-end intelligent interconnect solutions and services for servers, storage, and hyper-converged infrastructure – the brawn.

 

 

The result of these acquisitions provides a stronger Nvidia data-center hardware and software portfolio, bringing it closer into the enterprise network race with the likes of Cisco, HPE, Dell EMC, and others. Having VMWare, Cumulus, Mellanox, and Nvidia in its stable gives PivIT virtually all the tools it needs to help customers build out high-performance computing and AI workloads in their data centers.
