2 Outline! " Goal of the project! " 40GE and 100GE Status! " Streaming server! " GLIF demo! " SC10 demo! " Conclusions

3 Goal of the 40GE project! " SURFnet (Dutch NREN) was looking for an application to be used their 40G cross border fiber between Amsterdam and Geneva! " Exploring the limits of a modern off the shelf server! " What network I/O can be reached from a single server?! " Give a demonstration at GLIF 2010 at CERN (Oct) in Geneva and SC10 in New Orleans (Nov)
