FlexTCA Platforms with Integrated Software

FlexTCA Platforms from Continuous Computing feature an unprecedented level of integration between platform hardware and platform software.

The result? Accelerated time-to-market for DPI, Security, LTE / 3G Wireless, and Femtocell Gateway applications. Read the financial value proposition.

Software Integration
FlexTCA Platforms are pre-integrated and application-ready, offering the unique value combination of key platform software (Essential Services, SAF-compliant HA middleware, and a Trillium protocol integration SDK) pre-integrated with a complete suite of ATCA hardware.

The entire package is tested, delivered, and 100% supported by one vendor: Continuous Computing. See the details.

Whereas other firms focus primarily on hardware components or software functionality (but rarely both), with FlexTCA Continuous Computing relieves NEPs of the need to devote internal resources to platform integration, thereby enabling them to focus on value-added initiatives such as application development.

Cut Time, Boost ROI
With FlexTCA, customers can slash product delivery cycles in half while achieving up to a 50 percent increase in total program ROI over legacy systems.
The financial benefits are real.

Trillium Source Code Protocol Software

Continuous Computing acquired the portable protocol source code software business of Trillium Digital Systems from Intel Corporation in February 2003.

Trillium protocol software empowers NEPs to develop reliable, high-performance network elements for LTE, DPI, and Femtocell applications and features a proven multi-threaded design that minimizes locking and optimizes performance in today's multi-core processing environments.

Customer Success

'We chose Trillium Professional Services because of the team's proven expertise in protocol stacks, general software design, and systems architecture for telecommunications equipment. Through our work with Continuous Computing and the direct interaction with the company's engineering team, our implementation and operational performance has improved, allowing us to field solutions in a more rapid fashion.' - Homaira Akbari, Executive Vice President of Operations, TruePosition

The foundation of all Trillium products is the Trillium Advanced Portability Architecture (TAPA), an elite set of proprietary architectural and coding standards. TAPA ensures complete independence from the target system's compiler, processor, operating system or architecture, delivering field-proven customer benefits that include reliability, consistency and compressed learning curves. TAPA defines a set of interfaces that control all interactions between the Trillium software and the target system.

LTE / 3G, Femtocell & IMS Enabled DevicesPowered by Continuous Computing

NGN, VoIP & IP Access Enabled DevicesPowered by Continuous Computing

Trillium software solutions include an innovative, patented model for software scalability and reliability, the Distributed Fault-Tolerant / High Availability (DFT/HA) architecture. Designed to distribute the processing load across multiple processors, DFT/HA is a software advantage that magnifies performance and extensibility while enabling "rolling upgrades." Read more.
