“The Linux vendor’s new MRG 1.2 (short for Messaging,
Real-Time, Grid) release includes new tools and improved technology
designed to better enhance the OS’s value for customers who rely on
real-time performance.“A real-time operating system differs from other OSes in that
its overall latency is lower, and system actions occur at
deterministic intervals. Providing deterministic real-time
performance is all about enabling actions to occur within the same
amount of time, every time — a feature that is critical for Red
Hat’s (NYSE: RHT) U.S military, financial services and telco
customers.“With MRG 1.2, Red Hat is publishing new performance benchmarks.
For Infiniband (define) users, the MRG 1.2 system has throughput of
greater than 1.5 million reliable messages per second per
system.”
