Improve network application responsiveness with more efficient data movement and reduced system overhead.

Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel® I/OAT), a component of Intel® Virtualization Technology for Connectivity, improves data flow across the platform to enhance system performance.

Server consolidation requires large numbers of virtual machines (VMs) per physical server. Intel I/OAT helps ensure that the resulting data traffic doesn't overwhelm server I/O:

• Throughput: Improves CPU-network interface integration for better memory-copy performance
• Scalability: Increases control over interrupt processing, including prioritization and resource allocation
• Efficiency: Provides an alternative to interrupt and system-to-user memory copy operations for each packet
