Continuous Computing Celebrates 20th Anniversary of its Trillium Protocol Software Business at NXTcomm 2008
Integrated Systems Provider Commemorates Industry Milestone with Fifth Generation Trillium Poster, a Comprehensive Illustration of Telecom Network Infrastructure
LAS VEGAS and SAN DIEGO – June 17, 2008 - Continuous Computing, a global provider of integrated systems and services that enable telecom equipment manufacturers (TEMs) to rapidly deploy Next Generation Networks, celebrates the twentieth anniversary of its Trillium protocol software business from the NXTcomm 2008 show floor with the latest edition of its popular Trillium Poster, which graphically depicts a comprehensive illustration of today’s telecommunications network infrastructure. Since acquiring the Trillium business from Intel Corporation in 2003, Continuous Computing has significantly invested in the Trillium brand, extending its momentum and influence in driving protocol software thought leadership worldwide.
“Trillium software from Continuous Computing is often regarded throughout the industry as ‘a definitive standard’ in protocol software stack solutions,” said Simon Stanley, analyst at large for Heavy Reading and Principal Consultant for Earlswood Marketing. “The product line’s quality, breadth, performance, and portability, coupled with individualized training from protocol software experts, have earned the Trillium brand its esteemed reputation.”
To commemorate this significant 20-year milestone, Continuous Computing is launching the fifth generation of its world-famous Trillium Poster, now available at the company’s NXTcomm booth (SL5909H in PICMG Pavilion, 1 st floor of South Hall). The Trillium Poster serves as a useful, information rich reference for system architects, engineers, students, and business leaders alike. Since creating the first Trillium Poster in 1997, tens of thousands of posters have been distributed.
“For the past 20 years, the Trillium brand has been synonymous with high quality and protocol software thought leadership and has been an invaluable differentiator for us since we acquired the brand from Intel five years ago,” said Mike Dagenais, president and chief executive officer of Continuous Computing. “One of Continuous Computing’s key competitive advantages in deploying fully-integrated carrier-class systems is the bundling of Trillium software, which has now been optimized for multi-core, multi-threaded environments. Starting two decades ago with SS7 and ATM, and continuing today with technologies such as SIP, Femtocell, and 3G Long Term Evolution (LTE), Trillium thought leadership is unparalleled in the industry.”
The Trillium team, originally founded by industry leaders Jeff Lawrence and Larisa Chistyakov in Los Angeles, California, today constitutes roughly 30 percent of Continuous Computing’s staff headcount. Trillium products are based on the venerated Trillium Advanced Portability Architecture (TAPA) foundation, a set of exclusive architectural and coding standards reflecting the collective feedback of hundreds of design wins over two decades. TAPA ensures independence from the target system’s compiler, processor, operating system, or architecture and helps reduce product life cycle costs while accelerating time to market. Trillium products also leverage the company’s Distributed Fault-Tolerant / High Availability (DFT/HA) architecture, a patented innovation which distributes processing loads across multiple processors for maximum performance and extensibility.
