• Universal RDMA technologies—RDMA over converged Ethernet (RoCE), RoCEv2, iSCSI extensions for RDMA (iSER), and Internet wide area RDMA protocol (iWARP) • Extremely low host CPU usage by enabling full hardware offloads • Secure firmware update with private/public key encryption to prevent rogue firmware installations and enhance security

REDUCE CAPITAL EXPENDITURE AND OPERATING EXPENSE Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE technology delivers excellent price-per-gigabit value. This technology enables cloud providers and large-scale data center operators to reduce operating expense while continuing to scale their network of server and storage nodes to meet increasing demands of the future.

Marvell 10GBASE-T technology is cost-efficient and power-efficient, supporting Energy Efficient Ethernet™ (EEE) to reduce idle power consumption.

ACCELERATE ANY NETWORK WITH UNIVERSAL RDMA OFFLOAD The Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter supports RoCE and iWARP acceleration to deliver low latency, low CPU usage, and high performance on Windows Server® Message Block (SMB) Direct 3.0 and 3.02, Windows Server Storage Spaces Direct (S2D), Windows Server Live Migration, VMware® paravirtualized RDMA (pvRDMA), Linux®/Windows® VF RDMA, Linux/VMware, and iSER. The QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter has the unique ability to deliver Universal RDMA that enables RoCE, RoCEv2, and iWARP. Marvell Universal RDMA and emerging low latency I/O bus mechanisms, such as network file system over RDMA (NFSoRDMA) and NVM Express® (NVMe™) over fabric (NVMe-oF), allow customers to accelerate access to data. Marvell’s cutting-edge offloading technology increases cluster efficiency and scalability to many thousands of nodes using RoCEv2, iWARP, or TCP as the transport fabric.

HIGH DENSITY SERVER VIRTUALIZATION The latest and multicore systems use several technologies to increase the scale of virtualization. The Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter supports:

• VMware® NetQueue • Windows® Hyper-V® dynamic Queue (VMQ) • Linux® Multiqueue • Windows, Linux, and VMware switch-independent NPar/NParEP • Windows Hyper-V, Linux Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM), and VMware ESXi SR-IOV These features provide ultimate flexibility, quality of service (QoS), and optimized host and virtual machine (VM) performance while providing full 10Gbps bandwidth per port. Public and private cloud virtualized server farms can now achieve VM density for the best price and VM ratio.

WIRE-SPEED NETWORK VIRTUALIZATION Enterprise-class data centers can be scaled using overlay networks to carry VM traffic over a logical tunnel using NVGRE, VXLAN, GRE, and GENEVE. Although overlay networks can resolve virtual local area network (VLAN) limitations, native stateless offloading engines are bypassed, which places a greater load on the system’s CPU. The FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter efficiently handles this load with advanced NVGRE, VXLAN, GRE, and GENEVE stateless offload engines that access the overlay protocol headers. This access enables traditional stateless offloads of encapsulated traffic with native-level performance in the network. Additionally, the Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ Adapter supports VMware NSX® and Open vSwitch (OVS).

HYPER-SCALE ORCHESTRATION WITH OPENSTACK The Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter supports the OpenStack open source infrastructure for constructing and supervising public, private, and hybrid platforms. The OpenStack infrastructure provides for both networking and storage services (block, file, and object) for iSER. These platforms allow providers to rapidly and horizontally scale VMs over their entire, diverse, and widely spread network architecture to meet the real-time needs of their customers. Marvell’s integrated, multiprotocol management utility, QConvergeConsole® (QCC), provides breakthrough features that allow customers to visualize the OpenStack-orchestrated data center using autodiscovery technology.

ACCELERATE TELCO NETWORK FUNCTION VIRTUALIZATION (NFV) WORKLOADS In addition to OpenStack, the Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter supports NFV, which enables the decoupling of network functions and services from dedicated hardware (such as routers, firewalls, and load balancers) into hosted VMs. NFV enables network administrators to flexibly create network functions and services as they need them, reducing capital expenditure and operating expenses, and enhancing business and network services agility.

Marvell 10GBASE-T technology is integrated into the Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) and can deliver up to 38 million packets to host the most demanding NFV workloads.

TRUSTED, SECURE, RELIABLE, AND INTEROPERABLE The Marvell FastLinQ QL41164HxRJ 10GbE Adapter adheres to standards that ensure interoperability with a wide range of network solutions. Marvell adapters are secure by design. Through public and private key encryption technology, the adapter enforces a process for secure firmware updates that prevent hackers from altering the code running on the adapter.

Note: All advertised features are enabled in the hardware. Actual feature availability is dependent on software driver releases. See the release notes.
