Much like other [[high-performance computing]] (HPC) interconnects, {{As of|2013|lc=y}} RDMA has achieved limited acceptance due to the need to install a different networking infrastructure. However, new standards such as [[iWARP]] enable [[Ethernet]] RDMA implementation at the physical layer using [[Transmission Control Protocol|TCP]]/[[Internet Protocol|IP]] as the transport, combining the performance and latency advantages of RDMA with a low-cost, standards-based solution.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/technology-brief/iwarp-brief.pdf|title=Understanding iWARP|publisher=Intel Corporation|accessdate=17 August 2015}}</ref> The RDMA Consortium and the DAT Collaborative<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.datcollaborative.org/|title=DAT Collaborative website|publisher=|accessdate=14 October 2014}}</ref> have played key roles in the development of RDMA protocols and [[Application programming interface|APIs]] for consideration by standards groups such as the [[Internet Engineering Task Force]] and the Interconnect Software Consortium.<ref>[http://www.opengroup.org/icsc/ The Interconnect Software Consortium website]</ref>
 
Hardware vendors have started working on higher-capacity RDMA-based network adapters, with rates of 40&nbsp;Gbit/s reported.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mellanox.com/page/file_storage/|title=Microsoft Based Solutions - Mellanox Technologies|publisher=|accessdate=14 October 2014}}</ref><ref name="chelsio">{{cite web|url=http://www.chelsio.com/chelsio-to-demonstrate-40g-smb-direct-rdma-over-ethernet-for-windows-server-2012/|title=40Gbe SMB Direct RDMA Over Ethernet For Windows Server 2012 - Chelsio Communications|publisher=|accessdate=14 October 2014}}</ref> Software vendors, such as [[Red Hat]] and [[Oracle Corporation]], support these APIs in their latest products,{{cn|date=July 2016}} and {{as of|2013|lc=on}} engineers have started developing network adapters that implement RDMA over Ethernet.<ref>
