And with the exception of Fortinet, all security still relies on common, off-the-shelf CPUs to power their security devices – which is why firewalls, for example, drop to their knees when it comes to trying to decrypt and inspect encrypted traffic. In fact, according to a FortiGuard Labs report, 87% of all web traffic is now encrypted. One of the biggest challenges many organizations now face is that their security solutions are quickly becoming their network’s bottleneck, especially as the volume of encrypted data continue to grow. Organizations like Google, Apple, and Facebook have all also developed their own custom processors to support things like their data centers and cloud services. Likewise, Tesla’s new self-driving chip has been designed to deliver 21X more performance than its previous Nvidia chip to better handle the growing volume of data being provided by the car’s integrated sensors. Apple’s new A13 Bionic chip, for example, has been designed to deliver the best graphics and user experience to customers. Nearly every major manufacturer and service provider understands this maxim. And all major advances in performance start with the development of new, purpose-built hardware designed to support and accelerate applications, workflows, and transactions.
Faster access to data, support for performance-hungry business applications, and the ability to process vast amounts of data all require high performance solutions able to provide critical solutions at digital business speeds. Performance is central to all business development and digital innovation.
