Enea Linux and System Management on the ARMv8-based AMD Embedded R-Series Processor


STOCKHOLM, Sweden, February 17, 2015. Enea (NASDAQ OMX Nordic: ENEA), a leading
operating system solution vendor within the communication domain announces Enea
Linux support for the 64-bit AMD embedded R-Series system-on-chip (SoC)
processor, codenamed “Hierofalcon”.
“Enea is one of our leading embedded Linux partners for the 64-bit ARM-based AMD
Embedded R-Series SoC processor”, said Dilip Ramachandran, Senior Director of
Marketing, Communications Infrastructure Solutions, AMD Embedded Solutions. “We
aim to provide a hardware and software platform for telecommunications network
infrastructure providers interested in a flexible NFV implementation to manage
networking services with configurable hardware to help reduce complexity and
cost.”

Enea Linux makes prototyping in the networking and telecom markets easy and cost
-effective through the http://www.openenealinux.org site, which gathers
everything needed to download, deploy and customize an open version of Enea
Linux. When customers move to the product development phase they have the
options to continue with the open version or acquire the fully supported
commercial version based on the same code base they used in the prototype phase.

With the objective of further reducing development costs and time-to-market,
Enea Linux can be complemented with the Enea Element middleware, a software
framework that provides high availability (HA) and on-device management
functionality to quickly develop carrier grade network applications.

“The AMD Embedded R-Series SoC processor is a compelling and highly competent
hardware solution in the NFV space. Together with AMD, we ensure that we have
the perfect software platform in place for anyone implementing network function
and connected endpoint devices”, said Daniel Forsgren, SVP Product Management,
Enea.

Based on the ARM Cortex™-A57 architecture, the upcoming AMD Embedded R-Series
SoC processor, codenamed “Hierofalcon”, is the first 64-bit ARM-based platform
from AMD, designed for communications and networking infrastructure including
network function virtualization (NFV).
