Qosmos announces support for Tilera multicore processors

PARIS, FRANCE: Qosmos ixEngine – a network intelligence software development kit providing real-time visibility of data as it crosses networks –- has been optimized to run on Tilera multi-core processors, delivering high speed performance for the most demanding and sensitive networks.

Qosmos, provider of Network Intelligence technology that enables deep visibility into data crossing networks, announced a strategic partnership with Tilera. Qosmos ixEngine is now optimized to run on Tilera’s TILEPro64 multi-core embedded processor.

Tilera’s TILEPro64 multi-core processor delivers the highest application throughput on the market at the best performance per watt, satisfying the ever increasing computing needs of high-end security, advanced networking and wireless infrastructure systems.

With this development, Qosmos’ solution provider customers can rely on the increased application performance enabled by the TILEPro64 processor for applications that require high speed network analysis in real time, such as lawful interception, cyber security, network protection, advanced billing and network optimization.

Organizations that will benefit from the higher performance of the combined solution include:

* Government cyber security departments who will be able to enhance security applications to detect and act on cyber attacks much more quickly.

* Telecom solution providers, who need instant traffic analysis to enable applications such as market research, billing, policy management and network optimization to provide a full understanding of subscriber behavior.

“We have worked very closely with Tilera’s R&D team to optimize ixEngine to take full advantage of the added speed and capacity of their processors,” said Jérôme Tollet, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Qosmos.

“Tilera'’s multicore processors are especially well-suited to handling IP traffic at the speeds our customers need for their telecom and government industry solutions. In addition, developers can work in a familiar Linux environment and benefit from standards-based tools.”

“It is a pleasure to partner with an industry leader such as Qosmos. Both our product lines can integrate easily into existing networks, reducing initial investment and OPEX while at the same time keeping future growth affordable,” said Vijay Aggarwal, Vice President and Co-Founder of Tilera.

“Together we can enable our OEM customers to develop cost-competitive solutions and help reduce their development time, allowing them to take solutions to market more quickly and affordably.”
