Maxeler Technologies Collaborates with Hitachi Data Systems

Mountain View, USA, Dec. 23, 2016 - Maxeler Technologies Inc., a leading provider of dataflow computing platforms and a member of the Hitachi Technology Alliance Program, announced today its collaboration with Hitachi Data Systems to address the demands of new financial legislation and compliance regulations with a high-performance compliance capture and analytics solution. The Maxeler-Hitachi Data Systems solution combines Maxeler Technologies Data Flow Engine (DFE) technology with high-reliability Hitachi NAS (HNAS) and Hitachi Unified Storage (HUS) for performance-matched data acquisition and storage and Pentaho Data Integration and Business Analytics software for real-time and forensic analytics and reporting dashboards. Offering end-to-end nanosecond packet capture, deep memory buffering and timestamping at line rate, the solution helps financial institutions achieve the high-frequency, transaction-related record keeping mandated in European Union MiFID II and US Dodd-Frank regulations.

Easy Migration to AWS F1

We are excited to be one of the first AWS EC2 F1 partners. The F1 instance makes Maxeler Multiscale Dataflow Computing in the public cloud a cornerstone of our scale out strategy. With a hybrid private-plus-public cloud setup, Maxeler's upcoming MAX5 product line will be able to complement the AWS EC2 F1 instances while ensuring a smooth migration from on-premise computing to the AWS cloud.

Meet Maxeler at ISC'17

Maxeler will be on the exhibition floor at ISC in Frankfurt, 19-21 June. Come visit our booth.

MPC-X

The MPC-X box provides Maximum density compute, holding eight DFEs in a single 1U unit.

Passionate about performance

The success of static Multiscale Dataflow Computing (MDC) is an acknowledgement of the rising importance of Data as opposed to algorithms. As transistors shrink, wire delays become more important than logic delays and memory accesses matter more than arithmetic operations. Therefore, in this new world, an optimal computing methodology is one that minimizes the sum of all travel distances of all data items while an algorithm is running.

Maximum Performance Computing

We combine Maximum Performance Computing consulting with our dataflow computing technology to drive faster deployment of next-generation algorithms and lasting competitive advantage.

Finance Risk Software Library

Maxeler's Finance Risk Library provides pricing, risk, and sensivity analysis.

Juniper Switch

The QFX-PFA-4Q is programmed using Maxeler's dataflow compiler, including full TCP/IP support as well as a module to describe high level networking protocols in Java, to target the module. Network traffic can be decoded, transformed and re-encoded as a bump-in-the-wire, sustaining line rate throughputs with minimal, predictable and static latency.

Maxeler in PRACE PCP, Phase II

Maxeler was awarded a Second Phase contract for the PRACE Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP). PRACE PCP aims at obtaining R&D services in order to make future PRACE HPC systems more energy efficient.

Open SPL

OpenSPL is an open standard for a novel Spatial Programming Language. It is based on the core concept that a program executes in space, rather than in time sequence. All operations are assumed to be parallel unless specified to be sequential. This is similar to a factory floor where all operations execute in parallel, but each operation executes a different part of the overall process. Temporal Programming is a recipe for the execution of actions, whereas Spatial Programming builds a factory to execute the recipe.

Ultra Low Latency Dataflow Renderer

Dataflow Engines (DFEs) deliver the lowest latency solution for VR rendering.
