The number one supplier
of packet processing software for networking and telecom platforms
6WIND, an embedded software company, is the
leading supplier of packet processing software for networking and
telecommunications systems, with a global customer base that includes
two-thirds of the world's largest telecom equipment suppliers. Companies
like Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson, LG-Nortel, NEC, Hitachi and Nokia-Siemens
Networks have selected the 6WINDGate software as a critical
element of their products, because high-speed packet processing
is key to maximizing the performance of next-generation networks
optimized for IP traffic.
The 6WINDGate software, a standard product with
open APIs, acts as a framework between a multicore processor's executive
environment and the application software running on equipment used
to deliver advanced services. 6WINDGate hides the complexities of
developing applications on multicore platforms for next generation
equipment such as wireless infrastructure, secure networking equipment
and IPTV. 6WINDGate typically provides between 5x and 10x the packet
processing performance of a standard Linux solution, significantly
improving the price-performance and power-performance ratios of
networking equipment.
By providing an off-the-shelf engine that allows
software developers to extract the highest possible packet processing
performance from their underlying multicore hardware platforms,
the 6WIND solution enables equipment manufacturers to focus on adding
their unique value around next-generation services, allowing them
to deploy services and achieve revenues sooner and easier than otherwise
possible.
One key to 6WIND's success is its strong partnerships
with companies that provide complementary elements of the complete
system-level solution that must integrate cleanly and efficiently
to form customers' end products. 6WIND is proud to partner with
best-in-class suppliers of multicore processors, board-level subsystems,
operating systems and other embedded software products. 6WIND engineers
work closely with experts from partner companies to ensure that
the 6WINDGate packet processing software is optimized to take full
advantage of the performance, security and reliability features
designed into their hardware and software products. Customers can
be sure that when they select a solution from 6WIND it will work
well with the other elements of their system provided by industry-leading
suppliers. Check out http://www.6wind.com/partners.html
