Leading EDA Vendors Select Imera Solution as the Standard for Collaborating with Their Customers

SAN JOSE, Calif., January 17, 2011- Four of the world's leading EDA vendors have adopted Imera solution as the standard for collaborating with their customers globally.

Imera solution enables EDA application engineers and designers to instantly collaborate and access securely locked down design environments for debugging tool problems over the Internet. Designers are not required to transfer their IPs out of the protected design environment. And EDA vendors do not need to transfer their tool source codes to customer sites to perform tool debug.

"Legacy networking solutions can pose security, productivity, and compliance concerns when business processes go across enterprise boundaries," said Dr. Jaushin Lee, CEO of Imera Systems. "To support the development process in this highly competitive industry, legacy solutions require opening or reconfiguring of corporate network. For enterprises where security is top priority, this requirement directly conflicts with corporate compliance and IP protection policies impacting productivity and time to market. Imera solves this problem seamlessly without enterprises opening their infrastructures."

Imera solution features an integrated hardware and software infrastructure that builds a secure virtual network fabric over existing enterprise physical network. Imera enables EDA vendors and designers to take advantage of virtualization across WAN and heavily firewalled environment, where business processes can continue and connect automatically without opening enterprise networks and computing environments, and without threats of trade secret leakage and malicious attacks. EDA vendors and designers can securely connect with each other, collaborate, and resolve issues seamlessly. Imera solution is deployed on corporate premises and all communication activities are federated and logged for maximum compliance with the security requirements of all parties.
