Netronome Flow Processing Solutions Featured in Sessions on Software Defined Networking and Wireless Application at Advanced/Micro TCA Summit 2012

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Netronome, the leading developer of flow processors, today announced that the company’s flow processing solutions for software defined networking and wireless infrastructure will be featured in two sessions at the Advanced/Micro TCA Summit today, Sept. 18. Both sessions will illustrate how processors optimized for network, flow and security workloads are essential to meet the complex requirements of the two fastest-growing and most-demanding networking applications.

Netronome’s senior director of strategic marketing, Nabil Damouny, will present in two sessions:

• “OpenFlow: Up in the Clouds” at 10 a.m.
  This discussion, in conjunction with the Open Networking Foundation (ONF), will focus on the use of flow processors to enable software defined networking in OpenFlow-based public, private or hybrid clouds in order to scale designs to support millions of simultaneous flows without degrading performance in 10, 40 and 100 gigabit Ethernet designs.
• “Flow Processing in 40/100G LTE Applications” at 2 p.m.
  The increasing amounts of users and multimedia applications on wireless devices are driving the need for flow processing to intelligently route traffic in wireless networks. A reference architecture will be discussed for 40/100G LTE gateways that use flow processing alongside an x86-based processor.

Both sessions will feature designs based on Netronome’s NFP-32xx flow processors. Powered by 40 multi‐threaded networking cores operating at up to 1.4 GHz, the NFP‐32xx brings breakthrough performance to a broad range of network, security and content processing applications used in 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps networks. The NFP‐3240 delivers 40 Gbps of packet processing with deep packet inspection, network and security processing, and I/O virtualization for millions of simultaneous flows. The NFP‐3240 is the industry’s only processor specifically designed for tight coupling with x86 processors.
