Cornelis Networks

Cornelis Networks is a technical leader delivering purpose-built, high-performance, up to 100 Gb fabric solutions for HPC, HPDA and AI to high-end manufacturing, scientific, academic and government organizations.

The history behind Cornelis Networks

“At Cornelis, we have networks with peak performance in our DNA.
We built our company on the roots of fabric networking, which stretches back to SilversStorm, PathScale, QLogic, Cray and Intel, and is a significant part of who we are.
Our solution combines and enhances the best elements of existing fabric technologies, while supporting a work environment and open standards for our clients.”

Cornelis Networks continues to develop and support this technology after taking over the discontinued Intel OmniPath business. Now they continue to improve it, bringing higher performance and speeds in complete network solutions. These are especially important in HPC, AI, or CFD workloads where fast fabric connections enable the full performance of the hardware solution.

Cornelis’ Omni-Path Express delivers low latency and high polling rates - the foundation for powerful applications and scalability.
With their highly optimized OpenFabrics interfaces, Cornelis Omni-Path Express delivers support for a wide range of application environments with industry-leading performance for mission-critical and priority end-customer workloads.

Cornelis Omni-Path Express supports a wide range of frameworks including Intel MPI, Open MPI, MPICH, MVAPICH2, SHMEM, GasNet, TensorFlow and more.
Cornelis Omni-Path Express provides exceptional performance for many HPC applications, including computational fluid dynamics, computational chemistry, molecular dynamics, genomics, financial risk modeling, CAD, weather forecasting and many more.

Applying Cornelis solutions in the automotive sector

In the last six months, Cornelis has placed over 6,500 interconnection nodes in the automotive sector. Newer and faster interconnection technologies in this sector can significantly speed up the running of simulations, training of autonomous sectors or calculations for aerodynamics. For reference, the unbeatable price/performance ratio was demonstrated in several CFD applications and work environments, such as:
