Neterion Licenses Alacritech's Patents
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on Fri, April 4th, 2008
To accelerate TOE adoption in the 10Gb Ethernet market
"As the leader in the 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter market, Neterion continues to seek partnership opportunities with innovative technology leaders in the 10 GbE ecosystem such as Alacritech in order to provide advanced and complete product solutions to both OEMs and end users," said Dave Zabrowski, president & CEO of Neterion. "Adding TOE capability that takes advantage of Alacritech's patents is a natural complement to our industry leading stateless hardware acceleration, like Large Send and Receive Offloads (LSO/LRO). The primary beneficiaries of this agreement are end users who wish to scale the performance of their servers by deploying a TOE solution using Neterion's adapters -- the 10 GbE adapter most broadly deployed by tier-1 server and storage OEMs for its robustness, performance and ease-of-use."
TOE provides an offload capability that scales to meet the ever increasing application performance demands placed on today's modern servers, while ensuring reduced CPU utilization, without reduction in network manageability or security.
"This licensing agreement between two market leaders has
the potential to
have a major impact on the 10 Gigabit Ethernet server and
storage
networking markets by further extending the reach of Alacritech's
Dynamic
TCP Offload technology," said Larry Boucher, president &
CEO of Alacritech.
"Combining Alacritech's patented Dynamic TCP Offload Technology
in support
of Microsoft's TCP Chimney Offload with Neterion's successful
10 Gigabit
technology implementation will certainly expand the market
for 10 GbE by
addressing head on, the end customer's quest for performance
without
compromise. Customers can have performance while maintaining
a firm handle
on server sprawl," Boucher concluded.
