ADLINK Modular Industrial Cloud Architecture (MICA)

ADLINK Technology has introduced Modular Industrial Cloud Architecture (MICA). The industrial IoT architecture for commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) platforms features a design aimed at optimising performance, cost and space requirements for the next generation of industrial IoT solutions.

The industrial-grade platform is designed to support the native virtualisation requirements for software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualisation (NFV) while integrating a wide range of the latest hardware acceleration technologies to boost the processing of network packets and video streams. This functionality is offered on an open, modular computing architecture, allowing users to redefine resource allocation for cloud computing applications.

The product is an Application Ready Intelligent Platform (ARIP) for industrial cloud computing. It supports ADLINK’s PacketManager, network traffic management software that accelerates and enriches packet processing capabilities on telecom, networking and security equipment. It also supports the company’s MediaManager software, designed to provide fast performance for video editing and processing, media conversion, streaming, playback and videoconferencing.
