Review on Mellanox NEO by Will Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent Product and Performance!!!

Great product, easy to configure especially with VMware vSphere software! The network throughput is very good as compared to other solutions we used in our lab testings (iLO-5).

It has been really helpful for us while testing HPC cluster applications using VMWare ESXI 7 hypervisor platform running CentOS/Ubuntu operating systems at scale of up 1 Peta Flops!! We are happy that it does not require any additional hardware or license cost which makes things easier than ever before like its predecessor - InfiniBand Adapter NX8500E2S0B60F had when I was working earlier years ago back then.. :D Highly recommended if you need high performance bandwidth between servers inside datacenter or across multiple data centers. Using this card solved an issue related latency difference from one server machine over different switches within same rack level versus another computer placed outside those racks but still connected via Ethernet cables through switch ports located directly near each individual.

Pros
  • Easy and quick to configure and get things rolling up
Cons
  • The initial price is not affordable for small to medium size labs/clusters as compared to our testings
