Boston, MA 09/11/2014 (wallstreetpr) – Manufacturer of integrated digital technology platforms, Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC), and provider of innovative programmable logic solutions, Tabula Inc., have joined hands to develop data center for the next generation.
New Data Center
Both the companies were working together to develop packet processing platform of a new multi-100 GigE line-rate to deliver high-performance, but flexible solution for data centers of the next generation, Tabula said in a statement. The solution would have silicon photonics technology of Intel’s and ABAX2P1 programmable devices of Tabula’s. This would amalgamate high-density and long-reach with the capacity to support a number of 100 Gbps flows on to a single programmable device.
During the Intel Developers Forum of 2014 being conducted till September 11 in San Francisco Moscone Center, demonstrations of the joint solution takes place in Tabula’s booth situated in the Silicon Photonics community. Tabula’s packet processing platform of multi-100G line-rate would also exhibit a configurable low-latency port designed for next generation data centers and routers.
The platform is best suited for the development of custom functions like embedded switches, regular expression accelerator or TCAM lookup engine that operates at 100G line rate. These utilities would also allow additional capabilities for next-generation, top-of-rack or ToR, purpose-built, or aggregation or leaf switches or spine or embedded switches.
Management Speaks
Intel Silicon Photonics Solutions Group General Manager, Mario Paniccia, said that customers would be in a position to transmit data at speeds of maximum of 100 Gbps apart from lengths of a maximum of 300 meters as a result of Tabula’s platform and Silicon Photonics of Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC), which would support the rapidly growing requirements of the data centers.
Similarly, Tabula Chief Executive Officer, Dennis Segers, said that both the companies believe that fuelling 100 Gbps connectivity has the potential to change the capabilities and allow fresh applications in big data analytics and cloud computing. The packet processing platform of multi-100 GigE line-rate would be available in the fourth quarter of the current year.
