Systems
Nallatech was promoted for commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) FPGA technology applied in computing. According to David R. Martinez, Robert A. Bond, and M. Michael Vai, Nallatech systems are "based on a modular design concept in which the designer chooses the number of FPGAs, amount and type of memory, and other expansion cards to include in a system."
Nallatech is also noted for its motherboards with PCI cards which provide a "high throughput connection over which a host PC can provide and receive data and monitor system performance."
Nallatech's latest innovation in FPGA acceleration is the 385A FPGA Accelerator Card. Released as of June 17, 2015, the 385A features the Altera Arria 10 / 1150 FPGA, PCI-Express form factor and works with most major servers, including IBM, HP and Dell. Nallatech is a leading developer of FPGA Accelerator Cards, as well as offering integrated solutions for server acceleration and other customizations pertaining to FPGA computing.
In March 2011 the company announced a miniaturization service for their FPGAs. Nallatech has partnered with Altera, and integrated their PCI Express card with Stratix V FPGAs, which may be valuable in financial analysis. Xilinx's Xtreme DSP kit was developed with Nallatech, and like Xilinx, Nallatech uses "floating-point cores" in their FPGAs.
Market
The company specializes in field-programmable gate array (FPGA) integrated circuit technology applied in computing. The company was founded by Allan Cantle ('Nalla' comes from 'Allan' spelled backwards) in 1993 and was backed by over £4m of equity finance provided by Scottish Equity Partners and 3i. Cantle is the CEO for the firm.
