6WIND Launches 6WINDPath Multicore Solution to Enable
Simplified Networking Scalability, Performance for IP-based
Telecommunications & Enterprise Applications
Mountain View, California - Sept. 14, 2009 -
6WIND, a leading provider of embedded software solutions
that simplify networking and application development upon
multicore processor based equipment, today announced its
6WINDPath solution to deal with IP-based application networking
performance bottlenecks inherent in existing architectures.
6WINDPath enables the simplest and fastest path to move
IP-based applications from legacy telecommunications and
enterprise architectures to higher networking performance
multicore-based architectures that remove performance
bottlenecks. The solution provides a seamless migration
path to multicore with no performance penalties. 6WINDPath
features 6WIND's 6WINDGate embedded software solution
- used by two-thirds of tier one telecommunications equipment
manufacturers worldwide - combined with 6WIND's market-leading
expertise to provide expert design support and services
and high performance embedded networking functions using
multicore technology while ensuring a flawless integration
with existing IP- based applications.

the 6WINDPath PR
6WINDPath is now available. 6WINDPath leverages
two major strengths - 6WIND's market-leading expertise
that includes strong field-proven knowledge in multicore,
and 6WIND's 6WINDGate
embedded software solutions - to ensure specific results
when scaling applications using multicore technology to
meet today's and tomorrow's network growth requirements.
The combination allows telecommunications and enterprises
equipment manufacturers to scale performance so applications
can work optimally despite any sized network traffic growth.
This is possible without requiring applications to be
repurposed as 6WINDPath creates simplified migration paths
for applications to run on multicore-based architectures
that provide the only capable intelligence and performance
needed to meet today's and future network traffic growth
requirements.
6WINDPath is an easy to install and easy
to use end-to-end solution. 6WINDPath ensures any existing
application running on single-core architectures, using
a standard Linux networking stack, can be made to seamlessly
and transparently work on a multicore-based architecture.
Using 6WINDPath, designers can work from
three typical migration path scenarios:
- Add a high speed packet processing front end to offload
the application processor.
- Add a high speed packet processing front end and
load balance the traffic to several application processors.
- Migrate an existing application to a multicore architecture
by dedicating a certain number of cores to packet processing.
To provide further details on migration
scenarios, 6WINDPath features and more, a 6WINDPath
application note is available at the following
link. You may also contact us for presentations, performance
results and evaluation software.
