NextIO, Inc. provides next-generation I/O virtualization solutions for enterprise class servers. Leveraging PCI Express, NextIO offers true virtualization for ANY end-point technology
Today's data center managers are faced with increasing challenges in managing cost and complexity. While hardware costs for servers have remained flat, interconnect and management costs have skyrocketed. This is largely due to the increase in the requisite number of servers, resulting in both physical and virtual sever sprawl. The growing infrastructure further impacts the complexity of the data center, as well as, the costs of management, administration, and I/O connectivity. These costs outpace the cost of adding new server hardware by as much as five to one. An emerging paradigm addresses this issue. That paradigm is Virtualization.«Less

| Name: | N1400-PCM High-Speed Switch Module |
| Product URL: | http://www.nextio.com/products/expressconnect.html |
| Description: | The N1400-PCM High-Speed Switch Module enables blade servers to expand PCI Express signals outside of the chassis. It delivers a combined 35Gbps of I/O throughput external to the chassis for connectivity to standard PCI Express devices. Traditional blade server designs limit users to only one additional I/O technology from the integrated ones on the motherboard. This legacy design forces users to remove power from their blades and physically replace the I/O daughter cards to change or update their I/O technology. Additionally, if a new I/O technology is chosen for the blade, a fabric switch for the chassis I/O is typically purchased to extend the technology within the data center. With NextIO's PCI Express shared switch module solution, blades only need to extend PCI Express from their chipset through the chassis midplane to a module bay. In a chassis module bay, a NextIO shared I/O module provides users the ability to offer multiple I/O technologies to one or more blade servers and to reassign or change I/O technologies without powering down blades. All shared I/O devices are compatible with existing operating systems and device drivers without modification. The NextIO Shared I/O module solution limits chassis management contention by eliminating the need for I/O fabric switches in the chassis. Additionally, the elimination of I/O fabric switches reduces the "out-of-box" setup time to ensure the chassis fabric is compatible with the data center fabric. |
