Qosmos, the market leader in embedded Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology has recently announced the availability of high-performance integrated solutions for Software-Defined Networks (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), combining TILE-Gx processors with the Qosmos ixEngine software development kit, via a partnership with Tilera Corporation, developer of the industry-leading TILE-Gx™ family of 64-bit manycore general purpose processors.
"The evolution to new network architectures such as Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is accelerating the need for higher performance processing and deep L7 application intelligence. The unique combination of Tilera and Qosmos enables an effortless upgrade of existing networking equipment by adding a low power, high performance services blade or a PCIe form factor delivering high-throughput L4-7 flow inspection"
“Qosmos ixEngine is the de facto industry-standard software engine for DPI and L7 application intelligence in telecoms, cloud and SDN architectures,” said Thibaut Bechetoille, CEO at Qosmos. “We are impressed by the efficient performance, throughput and scalability of the TILE-Gx family. This solution which achieves 40Gbps of DPI on a single processor is truly remarkable.”
"The migration to Software Defined Networking places more demanding requirements on classifying flows and then applying complex actions, requiring a highly-programmable and efficient data plane,” said Devesh Garg, President & CEO of Tilera Corporation. “With the combination of TILE-Gx processors and Qosmos software, affordable high-throughput, agile and flexible networking can be implemented in an embedded environment where power and system real-estate are at a premium.”
