Cut Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Hallucinations by 50%
Most teams hit the same wall with enterprise AI: LLMs that hallucinate, pipelines that don’t scale, and infrastructure that’s harder to design than the models themselves.
What Is Intelligent BOM Management? A Guide to Smarter Product Development

Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. has announced the availability of NVIDIA GPUDirect technology with Mellanox ConnectX-2 40Gb/s InfiniBand adapters that the company says boosts GPU-based cluster efficiency and increases performance.
According to Mellanox, current architecture requires the CPU to handle memory copied between the GPU and the InfiniBand network. Mellanox was a partner in the development of NVIDIA GPUDirect, a technology designed to reduce the involvement of the CPU, reducing latency for GPU-to-InfiniBand communication by up to 30 percent, according to the company.
“The rapid increase in the performance of GPUs has made them a compelling platform for computationally demanding tasks in a wide variety of application domains,” says Michael Kagan, CTO at Mellanox Technologies. “To ensure high levels of performance, efficiency and scalability, data communication must be performed as fast as possible, and without creating extra load on the CPUs. NVIDIA GPUDirect technology enables NVIDIA GPUs, coupled with Mellanox ConnectX-2 40Gb/s InfiniBand adapters, to communicate faster, increasing overall system performance and efficiency.”
