Quadrics Partnerships and Alliances: CDA

Quadrics has joined alliances that promote technical developments and partnerships that promote HPC technology both within Europe and across the world.

Announced on Apr 30, 2008, the ControlPoint Developer Alliance is a community of ControlPoint software developers, integrators, and users who are committed to, and collectively benefit from, ongoing enhancements to the ControlPoint software solution.

Leveraging the ControlPoint Software Suite, which is available as source code to members of the Alliance, equipment providers and ODMs can deliver unique system solutions quickly and cost effectively, and researchers can leverage ControlPoint and Fulcrum's full-featured FocalPoint reference designs to experiment with new protocols and network topologies. Quadrics is one of the founding members together with Fulcrum Microsystems, Continuous Computing, Green Hills Software, Liquid Computing, Nimbus Data Systems, Open Grid Computing, Panasas, SMC Networks and XORP.
'As a leader in high performance interconnects, we saw the migration to 10-Gigabit Ethernet as a tremendous growth opportunity and our partnership with Fulcrum has allowed us to move very quickly to get to market. Now, as part of the ControlPoint Developer Alliance we will have a great software foundation upon which we can innovate new datacenter features that have historically not been available with Ethernet' Giovanni Trezza, Quadrics Chairman.
