Artesyn joins Wind River Titanium Cloud ecosystem

Artesyn Embedded Technologies provides standards-based computing platforms for communications infrastructure. The Centellis portfolio of ATCA systems saves customers development time and cost with NEBS Level 3 pre-certified application-ready configurations. The Centellis systems can be deployed in a range of NFV applications including session border controllers, content optimisation and security appliances.

An application-ready software platform, Wind River Titanium Server enables carrier grade reliability for telecomms networks with NFV infrastructure. This allow service providers to maintain the rigorous uptime need for the network transition to a virtualised infrastructure. Companies can reduce operating expenses and increase average revenue per user by using Titanium Server as they deploy NFV in their networks. It is based on open source technologies including Wind River Linux, optimised real-time Kernel-Based Virtual Machine (KVM++) and carrier grade enhancements to OpenStack and the Intel Data Plane Development Kit.

“By accelerating the performance of virtual network functions (VNFs) and providing features that simplify the instantiation, management and maintenance of VNFs, Artesyn computing platforms - based on open standards and validated through the Titanium Cloud program - enable customers to minimise both capital expenses and operating expenses as they progressively deploy NFV in their networks, " comments Jim Darroch, Senior Director, Embedded Computing Software Product Marketing, Artesyn Embedded Technologies.

Charlie Ashton, Senior Director, Business Development, Networking Solutions, Wind River, adds: “Communication service providers looking for validated end-to-end NFV solutions that comprise interoperable products can now turn to one of the leaders in standards-based computing platforms for communications infrastructure – Artesyn – with the confidence that their participation in the Titanium Cloud program provides validated, interoperable hardware and software, based on Wind River Titanium Server running on Intel architecture platforms.”
