SSL加速卡调研的原因及背景

 

SSL加速卡调研的原因及背景

         网络信息安全已经成为电子商务和网络信息业发展的一个瓶颈，安全套接层(SSL)协议能较好地解决安全处理问题，而SSL加速器有效地提高了网络安全处理的性能。

         公司产品本身可以在软件层次，利用CPU和内存等资源可以处理SSL加解密，但是性能不高。在公司产品中集成SSL加速卡，有利于提高处理SSL加解密的性能，节省系统资源，并提高公司产品的整体工作性能。

         公司产品的需求：

1)         所有网络接口的数据流量都可以经过SSL加速卡的处理。并不和任何特定的网络接口绑定。

2)         SSL加速卡的接口是通用接口，如：PCI Express等接口。

3)         SSL 加速卡的驱动支持主流系统和虚拟化平台，如：Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, XEN, KVM, Citrix XenServer

4)         SSL加速卡提供SDK和API等软件支持。

 

SSL加速卡调研的目的

1)         SSL加速卡的种类以及功能和架构。

2)         SSL加速卡的集成方式和服务支持。
