| This highly parallel architecture provides independent control of each Fibre Channel port with four CPUs/port operating in concert to maximize data throughput at 1-2-4Gb and 10Gb speeds while minimizing host CPU workload. The parallel architecture of NDB Cluster provides near-linear scalability, meaning that adding processing capacity provides an equivalent scale increase in performance. As a member of the Netezza Developer Network, we can now develop advanced algorithms that run inside the NPS system, leveraging Netezza's unique parallel architecture for high performance. |
