What exactly is broadband fabric computing?

Let's first break it down into its two parts:

Broadband - Your connection to access the Internet, at a minimum faster than dialup, at a maximum the endless capacity of a fiber optic network, like that provided by Abacus Broadband Solutions.

Fabric Computing - A highly scalable, always available, high performance communications system that features reconfigurable pools of computing, communications, and storage resources in order to deliver the performance, redundancy, and scalability demanded by next-generation applications.

Powerful Technology

Broadband fabric computing, then, is the best of both worlds, combining high performance data processing with robust bandwidth connectivity.At the Abacus Data Exchange we offer you the ability to utilize the power of fabric computing on an as-needed basis over a state-of-the-art fiber optic broadband connection.

Abacus utilizes the latest in fabric computing technology called Software Defined Real-Time Infrastructure (SD-RTI). SD-RTI allows pools of standard physical resources (processors, memory, IO, storage, and networking) to be utilized and managed as software-defined data-center infrastructure, including servers, routers, VLANs, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, load balancers, subnets, and VPN gateways. SD-RTI automatically manages the complexity associated with underlying physical and networking resources transparent to the applications (e.g. IP addresses, VLAN IDs, block storage devices, MACs, and hypervisors).

Benefits to Enterprises

What this means to you is the ability to create a server with the exact specifications you need when you need it. We understand that a business's needs will change, and now so can your server.

Whether you need a temporary upgrade to test updates to your software, or you just need to expand your capacity as your business grows, now through Abacus you have the power of fabric computing at your fingertips.
