ARDSoC extends the capabilities of DPDK to ARM-based SoCs, enabling efficient packet processing that bypasses the traditional Linux network stack. This IP core saves valuable ARM processor cycles and integrates smoothly with distributed network applications, especially those relying on containers and embedded protocol bridges.
The key benefit of ARDSoC is its ability to drastically reduce power consumption, latency, and the overall TCO when transitioning from x86 architectures. This is achieved by optimizing the ARM CCI-400 Cache performance and utilizing zero copy DPDK coherent memory structures. The IP supports popular ARM architectures like A53 and A72 and can achieve up to 64 Gbps throughput under nominal operating conditions.
ARDSoC is particularly useful for cloud-edge devices requiring robust network processing capabilities. Its compatibility with existing DPDK programs ensures developers can easily migrate and integrate their applications with minimal modifications, supported by Atomic Rules' commitment to innovation and real-world application needs.
