TSMC uses Imera Virtual Fabric to safeguard ecosystem communications

SAN JOSE, USA: Imera Systems announced that TSMC, the semiconductor foundry segment leader, is using Imera Virtual Fabric solution as the secure communication and collaboration standard for its customers, partners and ecosystem vendors.

In today’s competitive world market, modern chip design and development process involves geographically distributed teams and companies, such as EDA vendors, design houses, foundry, packaging houses and others within the eco-system to work closely together to meet time to market requirements.

It is important for these distributed players to instantly connect, collaborate, and access protected design environments and data to resolve design issues without violating existing corporate security policies. TSMC, a critical member of the eco-system, is committed to support and collaborate with its partners and customers to streamline the entire process and effectively deliver the business value.

“Semiconductor companies are facing tremendous development and business challenges in a vastly disintegrated ecosystem,” said Dr. Jaushin Lee, Imera CEO. “To cope with these challenges, the companies require a next generation, secure, on-demand, and easily managed infrastructure for connection, communication, and collaboration across the distributed teams. Imera Virtual Fabric was architected to answer these challenges.”

“TSMC uses the Imera Virtual Fabric as a communication and collaboration platform. Leading edge IT technology plays an important role in TSMC’s commitment to protect the IP of its customers and ecosystem partners,” said Thomas Chen, Director of Technology System Integration at TSMC.
