• Why the Intel® FPGA Partner Program matters to partners and to their customers Contributed by Lakecia Gunter, Vice President, Ecosystem Development and Operations, Intel Corporation   Companies no longer compete one-on-one. Today, it's ecosystem versus ecosystem. The broadest ecosystem in which partners come together to develop and build solutions that deliver groundbreaking capabilities and solve key operational, technological, or business pain points will deliver the solutions that customers prefer. That is why Intel...

• Prevent DDoS attacks with the F5 BIG-IP Advanced Firewall Manager Smart Virtual Edition (AFMVE) integrated with an Intel® FPGA Programmable Acceleration Card (PAC) N3000 The transition to 5G infrastructure will likely increase the risk of a new series of Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. While DDoS attacks range from targeted acts of retaliation, protest, theft, or extortion to pranksters, they all have one objective: disrupt service availability and reduce the ability of a business to function. Service providers building 5G infrastructure must implement a strategy...

• Hardware Acceleration and Segment Routing over IPv6 (SRv6) help CoSPs Optimize and Simplify their Networks Communications service providers (CoSPs) are seeking ways to differentiate themselves and to enhance their customers’ experiences in the fast-evolving telecommunication (telco) market—all while keeping costs under control. Exponential traffic growth and constant pressure to add more services and subscribers can tax legacy infrastructure, forcing CoSPs to constantly optimize and simplify their networks. Many CoSPs have deployed network functions virtualization (NFV)...

• Build efficient 5G and 4G telecom offload functions quickly using Netcope Technologies’ P4 service and Intel® FPGA Programmable Acceleration Cards Smart Network Interface Cards (SmartNICs) can boost performance in mobile telecom networks. For 4G networks, SmartNICs can be used to implement many network functions in virtual machines or containers rather than using dedicated hardware, resulting in better performance and more network flexibility. Meanwhile, 5G networks will demand even more performance and flexibility, and SmartNICs can meet these goals. An Intel®...
