LMS ÜberNIC Nano | NIC Cards for Fintech

完全硬體加速的網路堆疊

Built on the Proven Performance of AMD + BittWare for FSI

Addressing the Weakness of NIC cards for Financial Traders

Liquid-Markets-Solutions (LMS) and BittWare are addressing a weak point in the FSI market: the humble NIC card. Once a simple purchase for getting adequate low-latency performance, today’s NIC cards aren’t keeping up. At 825 Mb/s, latency on today’s NIC cards begin to degrade to several  microseconds—quietly eating away at the edge your algorithms had in the market.

Enter ÜberNIC Nano: the latest addition to the ÜberNIC family of SmartNICs. It starts with the impressive latency of AMD UltraScale+ FPGAs and stays there—right through to multiple Gb/s. It does this with similar ease and cost to the NICs you’re using now.

Powerful Performance in a Single-Slot NIC

The Silicon Advantage

The internal latency of your NIC is a critical performance component. That’s why the ÜberNIC Nano is built on AMD’s UltraScale+ family of FPGAs—proven to provide the lowest possible latency.

But that’s not to say all NICs will perform equally. The real difference is how the network stack is designed, specifically how much is handled by the CPU. That’s where the ÜberNIC family gives the ultimate advantage: the entire network stack is implemented in hardware, ensuring the lowest possible latency.

Even today’s most popular NICs favored in FSI use a combination of hardware/software that results in poor latency within the scope of today’s market feeds. See our example using a 1-day NYSE stream below.

金融科技改變遊戲規則的表現

用於低延遲交易的超網卡

今天的 NIC 無法用於市場交易

事實:當今的市場饋送通常超過850 Mb/s,即使是最具競爭力的NIC網路堆疊也開始大幅失去足夠的延遲性能。

進入 ÜberNIC,這是第一款商用 FPGA NIC,在加速硬體中集成了整個網路堆棧,可實現一致的低延遲,為當今市場和未來做好準備

Port Density + Precision Time

Though the focus can be on low latency, another big advantage with LMS ÜberNIC is precision time. Specifically, this family of cards offer time synchronization with a variety of external devices and standards, including White Rabbit.
