packet inspection acceleration for cyber security and big data
analytics applications
Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MLNX), a leading supplier
of high-performance, end-to-end smart interconnect solutions for
data center servers and storage systems, today announced that it
has reached a definitive agreement to acquire privately held Titan
IC, the leading developer of network intelligence (NI) and security
technology to accelerate search and big data analytics across a
broad range of applications in data centers worldwide. The
acquisition will further strengthen Mellanox’s network intelligence
capabilities delivered through the company’s advanced ConnectX and
BlueField families of SmartNIC and I/O Processing Unit (IPU)
solutions. Titan IC’s world class team in Belfast, Northern Ireland
will become the center of advanced network intelligence research
and development for Mellanox.
“Network Intelligence is an important technology when combined
with our industry-leading networking portfolio of switches,
SmartNICs, and IPUs,” said Eyal Waldman, president and CEO Mellanox
Technologies. “Our customers will benefit from the deep analytics
and enhanced security that will be delivered by the integration of
our best-in-class Ethernet and InfiniBand products and
world-leading deep packet inspection and analytics technologies
from Titan IC. With this acquisition, our M&A investments total
more than 1.2 billion dollars to date and more than 53 million
dollars invested in startups to further our intelligent networking
strategy.”
“We are pleased to become part of Mellanox and together we will
accelerate the pace of innovation and will advance network
intelligence to new levels of performance and insight,” said Noel
McKenna, CEO, Titan IC. “We have worked with Mellanox for many
years to integrate our RXP regular expression processor into their
advanced line of BlueField I/O Processing Units (IPUs). Now as part
of Mellanox, we will be able to achieve new capabilities for cyber
intelligence, intrusion detection and protection, and advanced data
analytics applications.”
Titan IC is a world leader in high-speed complex pattern
matching and real-time Internet traffic inspection for advanced
cyber security and data analytics applications. The highly
sophisticated RXP hardware network intelligence acceleration
engine, offloads regular expressions (RegEx) string and malware
matching, freeing up CPU cores and delivering faster throughput and
increased efficiency. The RXP engine’s unique ability to
simultaneously handle high throughput, rule depth, and complexity
is an ideal complement to Mellanox high performance BlueField IPU
based solutions, which include line-rate network, storage, and
crypto accelerators at speeds up to 200 Gb/s. The combination
delivers unmatched network intelligence capabilities making
BlueField the perfect solution for a wide range of applications
such as stateful firewalls, load balancers, intrusion detection and
prevention, deep packet inspection, application recognition, lawful
interception, government, logfile analytics, in-storage search and
