Chelsio sponsored the development of NVMe over Fabrics in FreeBSD. TCP transport is currently supported. Additionally, Offload support for both NVMe/TCP host and controller is inboxed with the FreeBSD kernel. Chelsio adapters are plug-and-play solutions for high-performance low-latency storage access, with concurrent support of feature-rich capabilities like iSCSI, TCP Offload, Inline TLS/SSL offload, Traffic Management, Filtering, iWARP RDMA, and SR-IOV Virtual Functions.

Recent Publications
| • |
Chelsio published a Technical Brief detailing its advanced High-Performance Networking Solutions in a multi-host Red Hat OpenShift environment. Leveraging the Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) feature of Chelsio adapters, the containers achieved bare-metal performance. With the solution already inboxed in OpenShift, it is easy to use. |
| • |
Chelsio published benchmark results for containers in Kubernetes environment. Chelsio adapters delivered line-rate 98 Gbps throughput for the containers using standard plugins like Flannel, Multus and SR-IOV CNI. A maximum of 35% CPU was utilized on the host, highlighting the efficiency of Chelsio SR-IOV Network solution. |

Chelsio published a benchmark report comparing NFS/TCP Server performance with Chelsio TCP Offload vs. regular L2 NIC in FreeBSD. A major benefit of the reduced CPU utilization enabled by Chelsio TCP Offload is radically reduced Capex for NFS/TCP server deployments. Specifically, ~30% of a typical ~$10k NFS filter head cost is saved by using Chelsio T6 TCP Offload which translates to ~$3K+ savings per head, not to mention the savings in the storage that is hosted by the head. |
| • |
Chelsio published a 100G performance comparison of the NGINX Plus web server running with T6 Inline TLS/SSL offload and NVIDIA CX6 kTLS offload. 45% of a typical $5k server cost is saved by using Chelsio T6 instead of NVIDIA ConnectX-6 which translates to $2K+ savings per NGINX server. This can result in a major TCO reduction and boost ROI. These savings will be magnified as data centers transition to 200Gbps and 400Gbps speeds. |

Chelsio published
the performance results of NVMe/TCP using Chelsio T6 Offload solution for
both Kernel and User modes. With more than 2.9 Million IOPs at the 4K I/O
size, only an 8.69 μs delta latency between
remote and local storage access, up to 50% CPU savings, exceptional
jitter handling capabilities, the Chelsio solution proves to be the
best-in-class at providing the next generation, scalable storage network
over standard and cost-effective Ethernet infrastructure with an
efficient processing path. |

Chelsio published
a paper on how the iWARP enabled T6 25G Unified Wire and Converged Network
Adapters (CNAs) enable a low-cost, plug-and-play, high-performance Storage
Spaces Direct (S2D) solution using standard Ethernet infrastructure. |

Demartek published
a benchmark of iSCSI offload vs. no offload for a class of real world
applications. The results clearly demonstrated the necessity of offload
for 100Gb iSCSI. |
