Siemens, AMD, and Microsoft collaborate on EDA in the cloud

A Calibre nmDRC cloud-based run on a production 7nm design shows the speed of the run increased all the way up to 4K cores, while peak cumulative memory on the primary and remote servers was less than 500GB.

Moving some or all of your EDA computing to the cloud enables your company to reduce time-to-market and innovate faster by taking advantage of flexible cloud resources and economies of scale. Siemens EDA teamed up with AMD and Microsoft Azure to demonstrate how using the Calibre platform with cloud computing can dramatically reduce your design closure times. Using a production 7nm design, they achieved a 2.5X speed up in physical verification cycle time.
