NI Launches PXI FlexRIO Architecture with Xilinx KINTEX UltraScale Technology
Published2017.11.09 10:06National Instruments announced a new model of the PXI FlexRIO architecture that integrates mezzanine I/O modules with Xilinx Kintex UltraScale FPGAs.
The first product lineup based on this new architecture includes two high-resolution PXI FlexRIO digitizers, three dedicated PXI FlexRIO coprocessor modules, and a module development kit that enables custom front-ends.
The FlexRIO product family integrates customizable I/O and user-programmable FPGAs into a high-performance, reconfigurable device that users can program using LabVIEW FPGA modules. When used with KINTEX UltraScale FPGAs, the new FlexRIO architecture provides more programmable resources than existing KINTEX-7 based FlexRIO modules. Additionally, the new mezzanine architecture is available in a single, integrated 3U PXI module for both the I/O module and the FPGA backend. This new FlexRIO module provides PCI Express Gen 3 connectivity supporting up to 7 GB/s streaming bandwidth for high-speed communication with other modules within the chassis.
Steve Warntjes, Vice President of R&D and Modular Instrumentation at NI, said, "FPGAs and high-performance data converters are essential technologies for pushing the boundaries of discovery and innovation, but implementing them in custom designs can be very complex. FlexRIO has consistently supported engineers and scientists in realizing their ideas faster with commercial solutions that include the latest FPGA and converter technologies. The new FlexRIO architecture addresses these challenges even better."
FlexRIO instruments are a key element of the NI ecosystem because they enable engineers to build smarter test and measurement systems. These test systems leverage the benefits of over 600 PXI products ranging from DC to mmWave, and boast high-throughput data transfer speeds through PCI Express bus interfaces as well as sub-nanosecond synchronization with integrated timing and triggers. By utilizing the NI platform, supported by an active partner ecosystem, add-on IP, and application engineers, you can prepare for demanding future test requirements while significantly reducing test costs and accelerating time-to-market.

NI Targets Double-Digit Revenue Growth; What Are Its Key Areas for 2018?
As 2017 came to a close, National Instruments (NI) held NI Days and announced key technology trends to watch in 2018. NI's 2018 vision strategy (Trend Watch 2018) includes △semiconductor market changes and responses △industrial IoT management △5G testing △considerations for the electric vehicle market △machine learning that aids data analysis and reduces engineers' development time. Lee Dong-gyou, country manager of NI Korea, stated, "The boundaries between industrial sectors are breaking down and converging. Engineers are now considering aspects they had not previously thought about." For example, vehicle manufacturer engineers are concerned with 'safety,' but noise has also become an inescapable consideration.

NI and Innovari Sign Technology Agreement to Increase Grid Operations Utilization and Reduce Costs
National Instruments announced that it has entered into a technology partnership with Innovari to support public utilities worldwide in improving system utilization rates, effectively managing distributed energy resources, and enhancing relationships among customers, local communities, and regulatory agencies. Innovari's IEP (Interactive Energy Platform) uses NI technology-based grid edge hardware, artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and proprietary optimization routines to deliver sufficient capacity and meet grid requirements. KCP&L (Kansas City Power & Light) has adopted a forward-looking strategy that views grid edge resources as an opportunity rather than a threat and regards users as partners rather than mere billing customers. KCP&L stated that it implemented the IEP solution because IEP technology provides real-time, deep situational awareness information to the grid, supporting performance optimization by reducing the likelihood of outages and shortening outage duration.

SalePoint Signs Multi-Year Partnership Agreement with AWS… Promoting Identity Security that Integrates Even AI Agents
Sailpoint has entered into a multi-year strategic partnership agreement with AWS and is moving forward with establishing an integrated governance system that manages both human and non-human identities together. The plan is to consistently manage access permissions in an environment where AI agents are increasing as work execution entities, while applying the principle of least privilege and automated policy enforcement. The two companies plan to jointly expand capabilities to manage the identities of various entities, including AI agents, within a single layer in the AWS environment. This collaboration is interpreted as a move to design security and governance together in corporate environments where AI adoption is expanding.

Databricks Unveils Open AI Security Monitoring 'Lakewatch'
Databricks entered the security market on March 24 by unveiling LakeWatch, an open-source agentic SIEM. The core functionality of this product is to integrate and analyze security, IT, and business data in a single environment to support AI-based threat detection and investigation. The company explained that it reduces the limitations of existing security operations centers, which have had to forgo some data due to high cost structures, and enables large-scale data analysis and automation based on open formats and ecosystems. LakeWatch is currently offered as a private preview, with Adobe and Dropbox mentioned as early customers. Databricks also announced an expanded partnership with Anthropic as well as the acquisition of Antimatter and SiftD.ai.
