FPGA CPU Offloading 1-100G NICs/Platform Enable 100% Packet Capture and Deliver Unprecedented Application Acceleration

Unburden the CPU and Boost Application Acceleration

Network monitoring and cyber security application software can provide the performance needed for 100% packet capture at low speeds but at 10, 20, 40, 80 and 100GE, packet loss is unavoidable. FPGA CPU offloading is an efficient option that can unburden the CPU by enabling 100% packet capture, flow classification, deduplication, packet filtering and more while significantly boosting application acceleration performance.

Utilizing Accolade’s universal API, customers can seamlessly migrate across the entire ANIC product line from 1 – 100GE.

Why Accolade?

There are at least three key reasons why customers choose Accolade Technology for their security and network host CPU offload and application acceleration needs.

  1. Technology Leadership – Accolade is the technology leader in the FPGA-based host CPU offload and application acceleration market.
  2. Intellectual Property – There are many vendors that provide “raw” FPGA-based cards, leaving the customer to figure out what to do with the hardware. In contrast, Accolade provides not only the hardware, but also in-house developed intellectual property as well as customized functionality if required. This is crucial because with Accolade a network appliance vendor has a single partner that can provide hardware, leading edge intellectual property along with support and software integration resources to bring an entire solution to market in record time.
  3. Time to Market – Many appliance vendors believe they can build all needed functionality themselves and sometimes entirely in software. This may be true, but is building everything yourself the most optimal use of time and resources? Accolade has accumulated vast expertise over the past decade by working directly with many security and networking vendors just like you.
