[October 27, 2009] Netronome Showcases Network Flow Processing in AdvancedTCA Designs Tweet PITTSBURGH, Pa. --(Business Wire)-- Netronome, a leading developer of highly programmable semiconductor products that provide intelligent and secure flow processing for network equipment and virtualized servers, today announced that the company's senior director of business development, Nabil Damouny, will be among the industry experts participating in the session "Special Open Tutorial on Developing Next-Generation COTS Solutions - 10Gbps and Above" on Thursday, October 29 from 2-5 p.m. at the AdvancedTCA (News - Alert) Summit. "The tutorial will feature industry experts discussing the design and development requirements for networks scaling to 10Gbps and beyond," said Lance Leventhal, program chairperson, AdvancedTCA Summit. "The tutorial will provide innovative ideas to both hardware and software developers and engineers, giving them an exclusive overview of next-generation COTS solutions." AdvancedTCA, MicroTCA (News - Alert) and AMC systems provide many benefits to equipment manufacturers who design networking and communications products. These systems are now required to scale beyond 10Gbps while also providing stateful L2-L7 deep packet inspection and security processing. In order to meet these complex requirements in next-generation COTS-based designs, a heterogeneous multicore design is often used. "Heterogeneous multicore architectures for ATCA-based products allow designers to cleanly partition control plane and data plane processing," said Mr. Damouny. "This architecture provides the highest network throughput and most effective application processing, at the best ratio of performance to power consumption." The AdvancedTCA Summit is taking place from October 27-29 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, California. For more information and to register, visit www.advancedtcasummit.com. About the AdvancedTCA Summit The AdvancedTCA Summit is the only conference dedicated entirely to this emerging standard platform for telecommunications. The Summit features tutorials, workshops, paper and panel sessions, keynotes, and exhibits. Subjects include hardware, software, design methods, applications, standards, interfaces, design methods, and market research. It also covers related standards such as AdvancedMC (News - Alert), MicroTCA, and ATCA300. AdvancedTCA Summit is produced in cooperation with such organizations as PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers' Group), CP-TA (Communications Platforms Trade Association), SCOPE (network equipment providers), SAF (Service Availability Forum), and the Ethernet Alliance (News - Alert).
