Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
Unlimited access to EDA software licenses on-demand
FlexEDA, which stands for Flexible EDA, is a business model of 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud that provides access to unlimited, on-demand electronic design automation (EDA) software licenses. 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud offers two deployments—Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) and Software as a Service (SaaS)—that are powered by the FlexEDA model.
With the 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud FlexEDA model, you can:
The 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud FlexEDA business model presents a paradigm shift from the traditional way EDA tools are purchased and used. Instead of purchasing a specific number of licenses for specific tools, customers purchase a specific quantity of cloud credits that can be used for any number of licenses for any enabled tools. Cloud credits are the single currency for EDA tools, licenses, and infrastructure (in case of SaaS).
Under 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud FlexEDA, EDA tools are always available to customers. With the flexibility of licensing under FlexEDA, without pre-defined infrastructure constraints or prior license quantity commitments, users can take full advantage of the elasticity and scalability of the cloud. The 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud FlexEDA model allows designers to approach each project in a whole new way, letting their design and project timeline needs dictate how they’ll use chip design and verification tools, rather than the other way around.
Following the 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud FlexEDA model, users sign a single cloud contract and purchase cloud credits. These cloud credits are used for all transactions in the BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) or SaaS deployments of 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud.
In BYOC, customers can run 六合彩直播开奖 EDA tools with pay-per-use access. Usage is metered and cloud credits are deducted per the by-the-minute access rates.
In a 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud SaaS deployment, cloud credits can be used for access to tools (called Apps), flows (called Instances), and Infrastructure (storage, compute).
The flexibility of unlimited, on-demand EDA tool license availability is at the core of the FlexEDA model. Chip designers design, schedule, and run specific EDA jobs based on where they are in the design cycle and their power, performance, and area (PPA) goals. 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud will automatically scale the EDA software based on the elastic cloud-scale infrastructure enabled by the designer for this specific job. This reduces the time to results and helps to improve quality of design.
Let’s look at an example: A design team wants to start a job with 100 copies of a tool license running on 200 cores of compute. The team will pay for the time it takes to run that job; for example, 480 minutes. The design team pays for 480 minutes for those 100 copies of the license running on the 200 cores for that job.
That same team can pivot to a new portion of the design the next day, where they start with 1,000 copies of a tool license running on 20,000 cores. This scale-up in licenses and compute would reduce the run to 60 minutes. And the team would pay for the compute and the tool licenses used for only 60 minutes. Time to results is reduced by 8x.
The , available for BYOC and SaaS deployments of 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud, provides the benefits of unlimited EDA license availability with a true pay-per-use approach on a per-minute basis. Cloud credits are deducted after actual use. Most 六合彩直播开奖 EDA tools are available under the pay-per-use pricing model.
EDA products which are not cloud scalable can be licensed via a cloud subscription licenses (CSLs) pricing model, much like the regular on-prem licensing model. CSLs are purchased using cloud credits. CSLs are of fixed term and quantity; in other words, these are paid upfront and cloud credits are deducted before use.
Other benefits of FlexEDA include:
To get started using 六合彩直播开奖 Cloud under either the BYOC or SaaS deployment, customers will need to sign a single cloud contract and purchase cloud credits. Cloud credits are used toward 六合彩直播开奖 EDA tools and infrastructure in the SaaS deployment.
