π Tender Overview
Clavister a leader in high-performance cybersecurity solutions announces that Clavister NetShield Virtual the worlds fastest virtualized solution for securing 5G networks has been formally validated in collaboration with Intel the industry-leading manufacturer of microprocessors and chipsets.In a new Solution Brief just published by Intel the performance of Clavister NetShield Virtual was thoroughly tested and validated in a simulated 5G network deploying a fully virtualized N6 firewall. The tests were carried out using 2nd generation Intel Xeon Gold 6230N processor-based servers.The conclusion drawn from the tests is a dramatic and consistent increase in packet forwarding rate when using Clavister NetShield Virtual on an Intel Xeon Scalable Gold processor as more cores and threads are recruited. The rise in packet throughput means the virtualized firewall can support growing 4G and 5G traffic volumes efficiently with minimal cost.In the virtualized environment that characterizes 5G providers and those moving to 5G from 4G this performance increase is just one benefit of Clavister NetShield Virtual joining nimble scaling and lower total cost of ownership to make the technology compelling for service providers.With our highly efficient software running on Intel common-purpose hardware platforms we are now able to demonstrate performance levels that just recently required expensive custom-built hardware. This is truly an enabler for the service provider industry to take the step to fully virtualized network deployments a necessity to drive scale in 5G networks said John Vestberg CEO at Clavister.
