Continuous Computing and RMI Collaboration Extends to Include all Multi-Core,
Multi-Threaded Processing Solutions for ATCA, DPI, and Security Applications
LAS VEGAS & SAN DIEGO & CUPERTINO, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Continuous Computing®, the only company deploying uniquely architected systems
comprised of telecom platforms and Trillium® software, today announced its plans
to support RMI`s latest multi-core processor family, the XLP Processor. RMI
Corporation, a leading provider of high-performance processors for communication
and media-rich applications, announced earlier today the industry`s highest
performing processor core and multi-core processor family driving unmatched
system and performance scalability. 

The superscalar XLP Processor delivers performance levels greater than 2.0GHz
and offers a 3X performance per watt improvement over previous generation
processors. This latest offering promises to bring about the most advanced and
most highly integrated multi-core processor in the industry while maintaining
the innovative multi-threading capabilities of RMI`s existing processor
families. 

Continuous Computing`s XLR- and XLP-based products empower Network Equipment
Providers (NEPs) with Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) capabilities to support
traffic shaping, quality of service applications, and advanced content-aware
routing and security applications. These applications are critical to fixed and
wireless infrastructure markets, including Long Term Evolution (LTE), 3G
Wireless, and femtocell markets. 

"Continuous Computing welcomes the opportunity to support RMI and its XLP
Processor family. During the past 2.5 years we have been very successful with
our FlexPacket ATCA-PP50 DPI blade in part due to the innovative architecture of
RMI`s multi-core XLR solutions," said Mike Coward, chief technology officer and
co-founder, Continuous Computing. "We look forward to RMI delivering on XLP and
we have plans for innovative products which leverage the XLP family`s tremendous
capabilities." 

The XLP Processor is targeted at expanding the overall opportunity for RMI`s
multi-core product offerings and enables a broad set of application-specific
features for customer use in security appliances, Layer 4-7 switching, storage
networking, 3G/4G wireless, small business networks, as well as several new
untapped markets. Early development work with the world`s leading storage,
networking, telecom, wireless, and enterprise customers started more than two
years ago.
