Accelerated Firewall Software on DPDK-ready x86 Hardware Platforms

Virtualization has massively evolved cloud computing and computer networking, with VNF’s now available and sufficient for many network functions previously performed through dedicated hardware. Yet even today, achieving the near real-time performance expected of networking hardware is a still challenge for virtualized network functions typically running on open compute x86-based network hardware. Firewalls and intrusion

smartphones, drones and virtual/augmented reality evolve with mobile edge computing

3 devices set to evolve with edge computing

  When it comes to technology, its no secret batteries have always lagged behind and held back mobile capabilities. Even today Li-Ion and Li-Polymer (the two most used battery technologies) have to make trade-offs between capacity, charging/discharging speed, cost and lifespan. As transistors components and chips have shrunk year over year, batteries have only really

FirstNet Next-gen emergency communications network. hardware platforms for critical communications and services.

Lanner Ready to Offer LTE Certified, FirstNet-Ready Wireless Gateways

The evolution of emergency services is now spearheaded by this year’s deployment of a nation-wide public-safety dedicated network known as FirstNet. This critical network reserves 20Mhz out of the valuable 700 Mhz frequency range due to the obstacle penetrating power this frequency affords. FirstNet was developed to provide mission critical communications and emergency services the
