Tue, May 25, 2010 Paragon Software's NTFS for Linux and HFS+ for Linux Support Cavium Networks' ECONA Processor Platforms
IRVINE, CA and MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - May 25, 2010) - [ Paragon Software Group ], the technology leader in innovative data security and data management solutions, and [ Cavium Networks ] (
Cavium's [ ECONA CNS3XXX ] family of highly integrated ARM-based SoC processors offers a rich set of integrated hardware accelerators for voice, video and data connectivity at low-power operation. The ECONA family of products is used in applications such as FTTH broadband gateways, network attached storage appliances, multimedia picture frames, media and print servers, IP cameras, and wireless access points. The ECONA family of products will feature both [ NTFS for Linux ] and HFS+ for Linux, two of Paragon's ultra-fast kernel-based drivers based on its noted UFSD technology, which will allow all PCs and servers connected to Cavium-based network products to have full access to Windows®- and Mac®-formatted external HDDs regardless of their operating system.
Paragon's patented UFSD technology was developed to provide full high-performance access (read/write, format, etc.) under various platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, VxWorks, etc.) to volumes of the most popular file systems (NTFS, HFS+, Ext2/3FS, etc.) which otherwise would not be supported. The high performance aspect of the UFSD technology is critical for network storage, in which multiple users simultaneously download, play back, and share content.
"Enabling PCs and servers on the network, regardless of their operating system, to access and share files to and from attached hard drives at the highest speeds possible is a critical feature for today's market with diverse applications and consumer devices accessing the storage," said Sridhar Gollapudi, senior director of marketing in the Connected Home and Office Group (CHOG) at Cavium Networks.
