I can only assume that the previous guidance of mass production 2020 has now been advanced to 2019. I see that this is the full package, embedding Ethernity's rich networking features including hierarchical QoS, flow classification, protocol offloading, and routing.
I really like this bit "Leveraging Ethernity's successful experience with multiple customers of its first-generation ACE-NIC40 SmartNIC, the next-generation ACE-NIC100 is scheduled for further delivery this year to additional partners and OEMs"
This is highly significant news; the aceNIC100 can be deployed everywhere even in existing Data Centres where space and power are the major costs. Large arrays have thousands or hundreds of thousands of servers grouped in one space using power required for a small city. In addition we will see very soon edge data rooms with maybe 4 servers dealing with edge data in a tower block, hospital,office or village. A Town may have 20 such locations very soon each requiring up to 32 aceNICs. Globally billions certainly millions in very quick time even on trial installations.
cots is how it is happening and this is exactly where Ethernity are. I believe that they called the future 100% correctly and the future is arriving now.
