With the rise of software-defined networking, enterprise, government, service providers and cloud data centers have all embraced new network architecture based on standard server platforms to host a wide array of network and security applications and services.

Napatech's reconfigurable computing platform enhances open and standard servers with FPGA-based SmartNIC software and hardware. Napatech solutions help offload and accelerate complex and burdensome network and security workloads, returning the valuable computing resources to the applications and services they were intended for.

Napatech's reconfigurable computing platform delivers the following benefits to cybersecurity applications deployed on standard servers:

    --  Hyperscale performance: A full range of Ethernet link speeds and port
        densities, in a standard PCIe form factor, including line-rate 1, 10,
        25, 40, 50 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet.
    --  Hyperscale innovation: SmartNICs based on FPGA software and hardware are
        uniquely capable of meeting the rapidly evolving features and functions
        in software-defined networks and deliver hardware performance at the
        speed of software innovation, without compromising either.
    --  Hyperscale economics: Software security applications can continue to be
        deployed on standard, high-volume, low-cost servers, removing the need
        for expensive, proprietary hardware platforms.

Jarrod Siket, chief marketing officer, Napatech, said: "At Napatech, we've harnessed the power of underlying technologies originally invented for the cloud and are now making them available for a wider set of IT applications, for network operators of every size. Our FPGA-based reconfigurable computing platform has been widely deployed by leading cloud, mobile and IoT network operators to avoid compromising between cost, innovation, performance and security."
