All the way from across the pond.... Sarsen welcomes visitors from BittWare next week.

Next week Sarsen are playing host to Jeff Milrod and Chad Hamilton from BittWare, and we’ll be taking them into the city to visit some of our customers in the Financial Services sector.

Chad Hamilton and Jeff Milrod of BittWare

BittWare has designed and developed a family of PCIe format Altera Stratix V FPGA hardware optimised for this marketplace. These kinds of applications require ultra-low latency feed handling as well as super fast analysis and data correlation. BittWare offers FPGA-based PCIe COTS solutions to address the challenges of developing financial applications.

S5-PCIe - Altera Stratix® V GX/GS FPGA PCIe board from BittWare

High frequency automated financial trading uses simulations to provide real-time assistance in decision making. With multiple lanes of 10GigE straight to the FPGA and PCI Express Gen 2, combined with on-board memory and optional TOE, as well as additional built-in support for 40 GigE and PCIe Gen3, the financial industry has taken notice of BittWare’s’ range of Stratix V boards.

In addition to the hardware, the Open Computing Language (OpenCL™) programming model is now supported on Altera’s Stratix® V FPGA architecture and BittWare’s Stratix V FPGA COTS hardware, providing an incredibly powerful solution for system acceleration.

BittWare's OpenCL Bundle is available from Sarsen Technology
