Galava: Highly capable PCI-e dataflow compute card, available for Universities to enable affordable dataflow acceleration.

Galava PCI-e DFE Card

As the community of Maxeler users continues to grow we recognised the need for a low-cost hardware as alternative to our Max-Workstations. Our new PCI-e DFE card Galava is available for all MAX-UP members for a price of 4,999 USD. It can be added to any Linux workstation, making it a highly capable dataflow computing system. Galava allows universities and non-commercial organizations to benefit from the power of our DFE technology, and provides a platform to learn and teach dataflow programming and to develop and optimize practical state-of-the-art solutions for many computationally challenging problems operating on massive datasets. Possible application areas include: Seismic Data Processing, Weather Forecasting, Image processing, Financial Analytics and Trading, Computational Chemistry and Biology, Genomics, Internet Networking and Security.

User community

Galava users are provided with free access to Maxeler development tools and educational materials and can participate in free training events and workshops. This makes Galava an ideal platform for everything ranging from teaching and lab exercises to practical high-performance computing projects. Programming support is provided through the Maxeler Developer Exchange (MDX) user forum. The Maxeler App Gallery provides a large repository of existing user designs, and MAX-UP members can participate in the developer community and create and upload their own apps.
