Frustrated by IP-based application networking performance bottlenecks?

Are you frustrated by IP-based application networking performance bottlenecks inherent in existing architectures?

6WINDPath Addresses Network Traffic Growth Bottlenecks by Facilitating a Simple Migration Path to Multicore Technology. The embedded multicore software solution enables simplified networking scalability and performance in IP-based telecom and enterprise applications.

Specifically designed for high performance applications 6WINDPath is an easy to install and easy to use end-to-end packaged solution. It provides a seamless migration path to multicore with no performance penalties and enables telecommunications and enterprises equipment manufacturers to scale performance and ensure that applications work optimally regardless of the growth in network traffic.

Thanks to 6WINDPath any existing application running on single-core architectures, can seamlessly and transparently take advantage of the performances delivered by multicore-based architecture. Typical migration path scenarios include:

• The addition of a high speed packet processing front end to offload the application processor.
• The addition a high speed packet processing front end and load balance the traffic to several application processors.
• Migration of an existing application to a multicore architecture by dedicating a certain number of cores to packet processing.

According to 6WIND CEO Eric Carmès, telecommunications and enterprise networks: are continuing to move to all-IP-based equipment, enabling applications and services to benefit from simplified architectures and the associated cost advantages: “Traditional equipment cannot sustain the mandatory 10G+ networking performance required for today’s IP-based world. Multicore technology provides the sophisticated and powerful hardware layer needed to offload networking performance concerns. As a consequence, the software IP layer implemented in equipment handling this bandwidth is business critical to business success. Supported by 6WIND’s unrivalled design consultation and technical services expertise and technology, 6WINDPath is the simplest and best solution to ensure that application performance is cost- effectively maximised using multicore architectures.”

6WINDPath is ideally suited for a myriad of applications including: security gateways; UTM appliances; IPTV; content inspection; IMS; VoIP and ToIP; wireless (3G, WiMAX, LTE, etc.); billing systems etc. As a highly flexible modular solution, it provides its adopters with the flexibility in select any desired IP functions.
