> Ethernet nowadays can do RDMA, soft guarantees on latency, in-order and reliable delivery at lower costs, and an option to reuse existing L2 networks. Mellanix has squeezed the infiniband cow dry.

And who did the Ethernet RDMA protocol (RoCEv1/v2) and sell the RDMA compatible NIC that everyone use in the HPC world currently ?

Tip: It is starting by Mella too.

RDMA is an interesting point because QLogic was doing some stuff then Cavium bought them then Marvell bought them. And then there's the Emulex-Avago-Broadcom chain. The entire market is converging into a few major players.
