Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) of very large data sets and/or high-velocity data is a workload that strains all parts of a compute system: storage bandwidth, IO-subsystem throughput, main-memory bandwidth, instruction-level concurrency and thread-parallelism. Swarm64 seeks to improve the effective throughput and the compute efficiency of OLAP workloads by adding FPGAs as additional compute element to standard compute servers. The hard-... Read More
