SFA7942Q D ual-Port 40G bE Q SFP+ H alf-Length ApplicationO nload Engine sales@ solarflare.com U S 1.949.5 8 1.68 30 x2930 U K +44 (0)1223 477171 H K +8 5 2 2624-8 8 68 w w w.solarflare.com Solarflare ® SFA 7942Q A pplicationO nload™ Engine (A O E) is the second generation of the product m oving application processing into the netw ork adapter to accelerate real-tim e netw ork application perform ance. SFA7942Q com prises an innovative integration of an advanced FPG A onboard Solarflare’s industry-leading low -latency 40G bE server adapter. SFA7942Q is an open platform that supports applications developed by Solarflare, custom ers, and third-party developers. SFA 7942Q provides users a unique advantage w ith an open platform for "on-the- fly" processing of netw ork data that com bines the industry’s highest perform ing, low est latency server adapter w ith an advanced FPG A acceleration engine. B y processing data in hardw are before it’s presented to the server C PU , the SFA 7942Q reduces application run-tim es, decreases overall latency, and m inim izes server CPU workloads. A s a result, users can expect to see dram atic im provem ents in application perform ance, w hile m aintaining full com patibility w ith Solarflare’s existing server adapter drivers and O penO nload m iddlew are. Architecture for Application Acceleration The SFA 7942Q architecture enables users to m igrate portions of their business logic – that can be parallelized and perform faster in hardw are – to the FPG A. This provides users the ability to optim ize their com pute and netw ork infrastructure for specific application processing loads. SFA 7942Q ’s bum p-in-the- w ire architecture also enables a seam less, low -latency and high throughput data path to host applications by reducing m essage transit tim e com pared to alternative solutions, and leveraging its tight integration w ith Solarflare’s O penO nload network acceleration . Com prehensive Developm ent Environm ent C ustom ized applications can be easily developed and deployed utilizing A O E’s com prehensive developm ent environm ent w ith the SFA 7942Q and the A O E O pen Firm w are D evelopm ent Kit (FD K). A O E accelerates deploym ent tim e as w ell as processing tim e w ith a highly-integrated FPG A subsystem featuring tools, services, A PIs, and a full data path infrastructure. M ore details are available in Solarflare’s A O E FD K product brief (SF-114797-C D ). Unique Features & Benefits A O E provides the follow ing benefits for financial services and other applications:

  • A ccelerate applications w ith real-tim e processing on the industry-leading, low - latency netw ork adapter low ering overall latency
  • Im prove server utilization by reducing C PU , m em ory, and I/O load which saves processing cycles for other applications
  • Significantly reduce FPG A resource utilization by exploiting advanced D M A engines and flow steering capabilities of the SFC 9120 controller
  • Leverage industry-proven low-latency drivers and Solarflare's unique O penO nload stack
  • Sim plify developm ent and reduce deploym ent tim e w ith Solarflare’s com prehensive A O E O pen FD K developm ent environm ent
  • C hoose from Solarflare-developed applica- tions, pre-existing applications from Solarflare’s developer com m unity, or custom ized applications SFA 7942Q
