[Beowulf] Thoughts on IB EDR and Intel OmniPath

[Hutcheson, Mike]

Hi.  We are looking at EDR and OmniPath for a new cluster we are looking to purchase this summer.  I am interested in what the Beowulf community has to say regarding the pros and cons for each of the technologies.  I am certainly not trying to start a flame war here, just looking for unbiased observations based on knowledge and experience.


Thanks for your help,
