Continuous Computing Announces Support for RMI’s Superscalar Multi-Core XLP Processor Family
Continuous Computing and RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) Collaboration Extends to Include all Multi-Core, Multi-Threaded Processing Solutions for ATCA, DPI, and Security Applications
INTEROP 2009 (LAS VEGAS), SAN DIEGO, and CUPERTINO, CA – May 19, 2009 – Continuous Computing®, the only company deploying uniquely architected systems comprised of telecom platforms and Trillium® software, today announced its plans to support RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) ’s latest multi-core processor family, the XLP™ Processor. RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) Corporation, a leading provider of high-performance processors for communication and media-rich applications, announced earlier today the industry’s highest performing processor core and multi-core processor family driving unmatched system and performance scalability.
The superscalar XLP Processor delivers performance levels greater than 2.0GHz and offers a 3X performance per watt improvement over previous generation processors. This latest offering promises to bring about the most advanced and most highly integrated multi-core processor in the industry while maintaining the innovative multi-threading capabilities of RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) ’s existing processor families.
Continuous Computing’s XLR- and XLP-based products empower Network Equipment Providers (NEPs) with Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) capabilities to support traffic shaping, quality of service applications, and advanced content-aware routing and security applications. These applications are critical to fixed and wireless infrastructure markets, including Long Term Evolution (LTE), 3G Wireless, and femtocell markets.
“Continuous Computing welcomes the opportunity to support RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) and its XLP Processor family. During the past 2.5 years we have been very successful with our FlexPacket ATCA-PP50 DPI blade in part due to the innovative architecture of RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) ’s multi-core XLR solutions,” said Mike Coward, chief technology officer and co-founder, Continuous Computing. “We look forward to RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) delivering on XLP and we have plans for innovative products which leverage the XLP family’s tremendous capabilities.”
The XLP Processor is targeted at expanding the overall opportunity for RMI (now NetLogic Microsystems) ’s multi-core product offerings and enables a broad set of application-specific features for customer use in security appliances, Layer 4-7 switching, storage networking, 3G/4G wireless, small business networks, as well as several new untapped markets. Early development work with the world’s leading storage, networking, telecom, wireless, and enterprise customers started more than two years ago.
