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

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