Subscription-Based Cloud EDA Tool Service Platform
The Subscription-Based Cloud EDA Tool Service Platform is an innovative solution that enables the operation of EDA tools within a cloud environment. Users simply need to set up the appropriate VPN connections and can then access the cloud desktop environment through a browser, effortlessly utilizing the EDA tools developed by iSTART-TEK, such as EZ-BIST. Additionally, the platform offers convenient methods for file uploads and downloads, allowing users to upload files to the cloud, and easily download them to their local machines after completing the MBIST circuit design.
Ensuring Security in the Subscription-Based Cloud EDA Tool Service Platform
iSTART-TEK’s platform places a premium on cybersecurity. For the security of the member website, it employs the Multi-Factor Authenticator mechanism provided by Microsoft Azure. This requires not only the correct password for login but also user verification through biometric recognition via an app, significantly enhancing the security of the member website’s front end. Furthermore, the platform connects to the EDA tool usage environment using an encrypted Microsoft Azure VPN tunnel, akin to remotely connecting to a company’s network from home, ensuring that your data is safeguarded from internet attacks and theft. The cloud infrastructure and data centers provided by Microsoft are ISO certified and comply with multiple cybersecurity standards and regulatory requirements, offering a secure environment for your development work.
The Convenience of the Subscription-Based Cloud EDA Tool Service Platform
The platform provides users with immediate access to EDA tools via a browser connection to the cloud server after subscribing, eliminating the need for complicated installations and configurations. This ease of use not only makes the utilization more convenient but also reduces workstation maintenance costs. There is no restriction on location; as long as there is a standard computer setup and a stable internet connection, the platform can be used. With the user-friendly EZ-BIST tool, users can swiftly and conveniently craft optimized MBIST circuits, thus reducing the time required for IC design.
