Lanner Collaborates with Wind River to Help Customers Get Flying with Intel Data Plane Development Kit

“Using Wind River’s support for Intel DPDK and the optimization work that is done for the FW-8895, development time is significantly reduced for new systems based on the Intel DPDK. You’re cutting development time from weeks to days, which makes it possible to quickly come up with many proofs of concept products in a short time” said Jesse Chiang, Chief Product Architect.

Equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2600 processors and with up to 8 modules featuring the latest Intel chipsets, this high-performance platform is suitable for applications such as enterprise firewalls with extensive packet processing such as deep packet inspection, intrusion prevention systems and cryptography.

The Wind River Embedded Development Kit includes a 30-day run-time trial version of Wind River Linux and arrives on a USB flash drive. At boot-up, the kit turns the computer into a complete development environment, complete with necessary licenses, as well as Wind River Workbench development tools and Intel DPDK tutorials. No installation is necessary.

“Our embedded development kit with Lanner provides a fast and simple start to development,” said Stephen Konish, director of product management at Wind River. “Companies will be able to take advantage of Wind River’s expertise with Intel DPDK, as well as our broad portfolio of support, training and services for it, to realize significant time-to-market benefits and quickly begin creating high-performance networking solutions based on the latest Intel® multi-core processors.”

Lanner will be demonstrating the Wind River Embedded Development Kit for FW-8895 at RSA from 25th February to 1st March.
