BittWare 250-M2D | Computational Storage Processor (CSP) | M.2 Accelerator Module | Glacier Point carrier cards in Yosemite servers | Hyperscale and Machine Learning

The BittWare 250-M2D is an FPGA-based Computational Storage Processor (CSP) designed to meet the draft M.2 Accelerator Module Hardware Specification standard. It is intended to operate in Glacier Point carrier cards for Yosemite servers. These feature-rich, dense servers are favored by hyperscale and cloud companies striving to improve the performance density and energy-efficiency of machine learning platforms.

The 250-M2D product features a Xilinx Kintex® UltraScale+ FPGA directly coupled to two banks of local DDR4 memory. Customers can either develop their own acceleration applications in HDL, or take advantage of pre-programmed accelerator solutions featuring IP from BittWare partner companies.
