Qosmos Joins eNsemble™ Multi-Core Alliance to Drive Leadership in Network Intelligence Software Technologies for Multi-Core Processors
Paris - April 28, 2010 - Qosmos, a leading provider of Network Intelligence software that identifies and extracts information traveling over networks in real time, today announced that it has become a member of the eNsemble™ Multi-Core Alliance, a premier industry organization founded to drive best-in-class innovations on multi-core parallel processing platforms and software development. Supported by a broad base of world-class hardware and software providers, the eNsemble Multi-Core Software Alliance serves as the foundation upon which original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) can more effectively and more efficiently develop high-performance networking equipment using industry-leading multi-core processors.
Qosmos develops Network Intelligence and DPI software technology that identifies and analyzes data as it crosses networks. Its advanced technology goes deeper than mere data classification to also extract content and metadata and capture data flows – at multi-Gbps throughputs – for a complete and accurate understanding of network activity in real time. Qosmos technology is used in solutions from network equipment suppliers in telecoms, governments and enterprises for unmatched visibility while maintaining control and flexibility over applications developed.
“Our strategy is to work closely with multi-core hardware vendors to optimize our software to take full advantage of the added speed and capability of multi-core processors,” said Jérôme Tollet, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Qosmos. “Multi-core processors are especially well-suited at handling IP traffic at the speeds required for advanced telecom and government applications.”
“Qosmos is a leading provider of network intelligence software for multi-core processors, and we welcome Qosmos as a valuable member of the eNsemble Multi-Core Alliance,” said Behrooz Abdi, executive vice president and general manager at NetLogic Microsystems, a founding member of the eNsemble Multi-Core Alliance. “By having a community of technology innovators who are respective leaders in their areas of expertise, the Alliance creates a platform on which these developers can innovate to create new, breakthrough applications and solutions that can take full advantage of the superior performance and functionality of multi-core processors.”
As a founding member of the eNsemble Multi-Core Alliance, NetLogic Microsystems is opening up the programming model for its family of market-leading multi-core, multi-threaded processors to Alliance members to allow greater access and tighter coupling between networking software and the XLR®, XLS® and XLP™ multi-core processors. This enables significant improvements in the application development efficiency of software code and overall system performance. In addition, the open platform enables the development of new enhanced services and applications for next-generation Internet networks that are highly optimized for multi-core, multi-threaded processors.
