Has anyone got any info or experience with this card or at least the company? Imagine building a cluster like the bluefield video, but x86 all the way AND QuickAssist on each node "for free". The world needs Patrick to get his hands on this ASAP.



"The combination of Intel XeonD processor, PCIe Gen4 technology, dual 25G SFP28 support, and DDR4 ECC memory support enables the SX904 to achieve unparalleled data transfer rates and maximum bandwidth utilization, ideal for modern server architectures. It provides higher performance from the latest Intel Xeon D processor and Intel Ethernet Controller E810 and supports the latest Intel Platform Firmware Resilience, BMC, and TPM2.0. SX904 enables the seamless offload of applications optimized for Intel architecture with zero changes, optimizing performance transmission effortlessly into an Intel-based server in PCIe add-in-card form factor."

Apparently they demoed it with Intel at MWC 24 in Barcelona, but I couldn't find any footage or reporting.
