This document represents the public review draft for the next version of the Coherent Accelerator Interface Architecture (CAIA) version 1.0 specification. It consists of markups identified and agreed upon by the Hardware Architecture Work Group. Comments should be posted to the document mailing list at [email protected] This document defines...
The purpose of this document is to describe how to enable a new customer card to support CAPI SNAP framework. SNAP is a open-source programming framework for FPGA Accelerations. Its homepage is https://github.com/open-power/snap. With it, you can develop accelerators with CAPI technology easily. This document describes...
The ADM-PCIE-9V3 features a 16 lane PCIe Gen3 or 8 lane Gen4 capable interface, which allows for maximum data throughput. The ADM-PCIE-9V3 is equipped with front IO via 2x QSFP28 sockets, each supporting one 100GbE or four 25GbE interfaces. Full profile card slots can also...

The POWER Service Layer to Accelerator Functional Unit (PSL / AFU) interface communicates to the acceleration logic running on the FPGA. Through this interface, the PSL offers services to the AFU. The services offered are cache-line oriented and allow the AFU to make buffering versus...
2 Terabyte CAPI 1.0 enabled Flash Storage Card Includes support for CAPI SNAP Near Storage Acceleration Utilizes 2x onboard M.2 22110 NVMe SSDs ...
The IBM Portal for OpenPOWER was developed to provide a central location for documentation on Power Systems servers. The IBM Portal for OpenPOWER gives users the ability to quickly find material of interest, including but not limited to: Users’ Manuals, Datasheets, Reference Design documentation, Firmware...
BM’s CAPI technology provides a high-performance, coherent processor attach for computation-heavy algorithms on an FPGA. This innovation removes the overhead and complexity of the I/O subsystem, allowing an accelerator to operate as part of an application with a smaller programming investment. The CAPI Developer Kit...
DESCRIPTION The Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) on IBM POWER8 systems is a new means for solution architects to gain system-level performance. CAPI connects a custom acceleration engine to the coherent fabric of the POWER8 chip. The hybrid solution has a simple programming paradigm while delivering...
