6WINDGate
6WINDGate provides a high-performance software foundation for building next-generation networking applications for 5G, SD-WAN, and IoT.
Description
6WINDGate is a foundational software platform designed for building next-generation networking applications. It's deployed in Tier 1 networks, providing crucial software solutions that enable Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to create networking products for 5G, SD-WAN, and IoT markets. This encompasses a wide range of solutions including IP backhaul, Unified Threat Management (UTM) products, universal Customer Premises Equipment (uCPE), and Radio Access Network (RAN) solutions. 6WINDGate's architecture is flexible, scalable, and highly performant, shortening development cycles and accelerating time-to-market for OEMs. It supports multiple architectures (x86, ARM) and deployment models (bare metal, virtual machines, containers).
Features
6WINDGate offers a solution-based approach with a generic code base deployable across bare metal, virtual machines, and containers on x86 and ARM platforms. It provides a standardized plugin API for customization. Key features include high performance and scalability, support for multiple architectures, flexible deployment capabilities, extensible management and monitoring (NETCONF/YANG based), and a rich set of networking functionalities suitable for various applications. It addresses the "build vs buy" paradigm by offering a ready-to-deploy, high-performance solution.
