Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI)

• Power / OpenPOWER Based Systems

• Higher system performance

• More applications, more virtual machines can be supported

• Lower CAPEX and OPEX

Enhancing connectivity for POWER8 based platforms

• Integration with the POWER CPU at the local bus level

• Access page tables with simplified memory registration

• On Demand Paging (ODP) enabling higher efficiency of storage access

Faster access between the Power CPU and ConnecX-4

• High performance RDMA, Lower latency
