Napatech's reconfigurable computing platform enhances open and standard servers with FPGA-based SmartNIC software and hardware. Their reconfigurable computing platform offloads and accelerates complex and burdensome network and security workloads, returning the valuable computing resources to the applications and services they were intended for. The performance and programmability provided by Napatech allow organizations to improve the security of their networks and meet new compliance regulations for data privacy and safety regulations, including GDPR, which takes effect on May 25.

The solution provides:

    --  Hyperscale economics: Network and security applications required for
        GDPR compliance can be cost-effectively deployed on open and standard
        servers while still meeting the demanding performance requirements of
        modern data centers.
    --  Hyperscale innovation: Programmable SmartNICs based on FPGAs uniquely
        provide hardware performance and the speed of software innovation,
        guaranteeing that users can keep pace with the rapidly-changing threat
        landscape and evolve with the new requirements of regulatory compliance.
    --  Hyperscale Performance: Naptech's SmartNICs improve the performance of
        the network and security applications that aid GDPR compliance. They
        also provide 100 percent packet capture and lossless write-to-disk,
        guaranteeing that network and security professionals have full forensic
        visibility into all communications when a breech occurs.

Jarrod Siket, chief marketing officer, Napatech, said: "Organizations today are facing both increasingly sophisticated adversaries in an evolving threat landscape and an expanding set of regulatory and compliance requirements to manage, contain and disclose details when breeches occur. Our reconfigurable computing platforms help our customers to overcome the networking, compute and storage bottlenecks in standard server platforms, allowing them to secure their network and meet new regulations like GDPR without compromise."
