The product also uses a high-speed interconnect to swiftly transfer data from one servers memory to another. According to Crescendo, this can reduce application latency from milliseconds to microseconds.
This type of interconnect, which employs a protocol called Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), is traditionally found in the back end, although Marsys has been able to deploy it on front-end Web servers via the Maestro platform.
Shaterian says the Crescendo [product] picks up the object from the servers memory, wraps it in TCP and handles the session -- it becomes like a broker for the server and allows it not to deal with TCP packaging and the TCP sessions.
It handles all the stuff like session management that servers are not built for."
So, has it delivered on Crescendos promises? The initial signs are positive. Marsys is already predicting that it will be able to reduce the number of front-end servers that it is using on an electronic publishing application from 15 to three.
