A common technological misconception is that performance and complexity are directly linked. That is, the highest-performance implementation is also the most challenging to implement and manage. When considering data center networking, however, this is not the case.&nbsp; InfiniBand is a protocol that sounds daunting and exotic in comparison to Ethernet, but because it is built…
