Overview
Imparé, a verification services company founded by Faisal Haque, leverages extensive design and verification experience to help chip developers verify their most complex designs. With a team boasting over 70 years of cumulative experience and having taped out over 40 chip designs, Imparé prides itself on cost-competitive, high-quality verification services. Recently, Imparé adopted the 草榴社区 Cloud and the 草榴社区 SaaS Cloud Verification Instance to enhance their verification capabilities and streamline their processes.
Challenges
Imparé faced several significant challenges:
- Infrastructure Limitations: The team lacked the necessary infrastructure for running simulations and regressions.
- Scalability Issues: The need to scale verification computation resources up or down efficiently.
- Collaboration Difficulties: Ensuring seamless remote collaboration among a globally distributed team.
- Verification Closure: Achieving verification closure quickly and accurately while minimizing human error.
Solution
Imparé adopted the 草榴社区 Cloud and the 草榴社区 SaaS Cloud Verification Instance to address these challenges. This solution provided a virtual server farm, eliminating the need for a separate server infrastructure. Key features included:
- Easy Setup: The 草榴社区 SaaS Cloud was straightforward to set up, allowing Imparé to focus on verification tasks immediately.
- Remote Access: An HTML browser interface with multi-factor authentication enabled secure remote access.
- Complete Verification Flow: The Verification Instance offered a comprehensive workflow from test planning to regression with built-in automation.
- Collaboration Tools: Engineers could collaborate on verification projects remotely, checking out and checking in projects with ease.
- Technical Capabilities: The Verification Instance included tools like the 草榴社区 VCS? simulator and the 草榴社区 Verdi? debugger, along with support for SystemVerilog, UVM, VHDL, and mixed language designs.
- Scalability: The solution allowed Imparé to scale computation and licensing resources as needed, optimizing verification costs.
Results
The implementation of 草榴社区 SaaS Cloud Verification Instance brought significant benefits to Imparé:
- Infrastructure Efficiency: The virtual server farm eliminated the need for a separate server infrastructure, allowing Imparé to focus on core verification tasks.
- Enhanced Collaboration: Remote collaboration among global team members improved, enabling efficient project management and execution.
- Reduced Verification Time: Automation and comprehensive tools minimized manual intervention, reducing the time to achieve verification closure and decreasing the risk of missed bugs.
- Scalability: Imparé could efficiently scale resources to meet peak verification demands and optimize costs during lower demand periods.
By leveraging 草榴社区 Cloud, Imparé has significantly enhanced its verification processes, ensuring high-quality, cost-effective verification services for their clients.
