Intel Data Direct I/O Technology Intel Data Direct I/O Technology is a platform technology that enhances the efficiency of I/O data processing for data delivery and consumption from I/O devices. By allowing Intel Server Adapters and controllers to communicate directly with the processor cache, without having to go through system memory, Intel DDIO reduces latency, increases system I/O bandwidth, and decreases power consumption. Intel Ethernet Power Management Technology Intel Ethernet Power Management Technology offers solutions to common power management approaches by reducing idle power, adjusting capacity and power based on demand, operating at maximum energy efficiency whenever possible, and enabling functionality only when needed. This technology helps to optimize power usage and improve overall system performance. Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) is a technology designed to offload some of the switching tasks performed by the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) to specialized networking hardware. By reducing the overhead associated with I/O switching in the VMM, VMDq greatly improves throughput and overall system performance. This technology is especially beneficial for virtualized environments where multiple virtual machines are running simultaneously.
