MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.,
Sept. 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today
announced a collaboration with Google Cloud to provide a full
end-to-end solution to perform functional verification workloads in
the cloud. An increasing number of users are seeking solutions that
take advantage of the elastic hardware scalability offered in the
cloud to address peak/burst simulation capacity requirements,
enabling a higher quality verification on a predictable schedule.
This collaboration provides a proven and scalable solution to
enable Synopsys VCS® simulation workloads on Google
Cloud.
"In addition to helping users select the right machine shapes
for the job, to ensure efficient utilization of the resources, the
unique Preemptible VM feature in Google Cloud helps to further
reduce hardware cost as verification jobs scale to thousands of
compute instances," said Manvinder
Singh, director of Google Cloud IaaS and PaaS
Partnerships.
"Together, Synopsys, Google Cloud, and NetApp Cloud Volumes
Service enable customers to transform their EDA workflows with the
simplicity and flexibility of the cloud, backed by the reliability,
performance, and availability required for even the most demanding
applications like Synopsys' VCS functional verification," said
Anthony Lye, NetApp's senior vice
president and general manager of Cloud Data Services.
Moving verification workloads to the cloud brings a unique set
of challenges, such as hardware instance selection, file system
configuration, and job orchestration. Using proven infrastructure
to ensure efficient utilization of resources and native Google
Cloud NetApp integration to bridge the on-premises and cloud
infrastructures, together with tight integration between VCS and
Google Cloud Preemptible VM instances, enables VCS users to quickly
take advantage of the elastic resources available in the cloud.
"Today's SoC designs require increasing amounts of simulation
cycles, driving the need for more compute resources," said
Sandeep Mehrotra, vice president of
Engineering for Synopsys' Verification Group. "Companies are
increasingly looking at cloud technology to accelerate their
development process. Our collaboration with Google Cloud enables
VCS users to scale to any simulation workload, enabling faster
time-to-market."
