Omni-Path Integration Expertise Offered by Nor-Tech

Minneapolis, MN, August 1, 2025 -- Nor-Tech is a leading integrator--for both new and existing HPC technology--of Cornelis Networks’ Omni-Path. Powerful and cost-effective, primary benefits include low latency and high bandwidth. It is particularly valuable for large-scale simulations, complex modeling and AI workloads.

Another key advantage is scalability. Omni-Path can support up to 500,000 nodes without sacrificing performance, making it ideal for expanding HPC environments and future-proofing infrastructure investments. Omni-Path is highly compatible with a wide range of HPC applications and compares favorably to leading MPI Fabric alternatives. Features include:

- Architecture: Designed for high core-count, latency-sensitive HPC workloads

- Latency: Ultra-low latency (about 100 nanoseconds or less)

- Bandwidth: options include 100 Gbps or 400 Gbps

- Protocol Stack: Uses a proprietary protocol stack

- Scalability: Scales well in large HPC clusters with fewer switch layers

- RDMA Support: RDMA-capable

- Vendor Ecosystem: Currently supported by Cornelis Networks

- Software Ecosystem: Integrated with Intel MPI and select commercial tools

Nor-Tech Executive Vice President Jeff Olson said, “Omni-Path is an excellent choice for institutions and organizations that require outstanding performance within budget constraints. However, integration can be tricky. This is why clients have been relying on our Omni-Path expertise for more than a decade.”
