      With the high-performance DPU ASIC which contains 24 high-performance ARM processor cores along with multiple integrated hardware-acceleration co-processors, Asterfusion® Helium DPU can provide upto 100Gbps multi-functional service processing capability.

    • Easy portability

      Through a very simple compilation process, various x86-based DPDK applications and generic Linux drivers can be easily ported to Asterfusion® Helium DPU.

    • Wide-Range of Applications

      Asterfusion Helium SmartNIC can be deployed into a wide-range of application scenarios such as network acceleration, security acceleration, and storage acceleration

    Value Propositions

    CAPEX Reduction


    Asterfusion® Helium DPU can offload and accelerate network, compute, and storage functions; preserving valuable computing resources in servers and reducing the total CAPEX of cloud data centers.

    Agile Development


    Asterfusion® CX-T switches combined with AFC (Asteria Fabric Controller) and K8s/OpenStack CNI & Neutron plug-ins can allow cloud data center administrators to automatically provision and offload overlay network configurations using the process compatible with their standard operational procedures. Through the REST APIs Asterfusion CX-T switches can also be integrated and controlled by third-party or customers’ own management platforms for unified & efficient cloud data center control, orchestration and management.

    Simplify Deployment Process

    Asterfusion® Helium DPU can support various NFV functions offload and completely isolate applications running on Smart NICs from ones running on servers, thus simplifying application deployment.

    Application Scenarios

    Network Acceleration

    Scenario 1

    Asterfusion® Helium DPU supports network function accelerations such as VTEP, OVS offload, TCP offload, GRE/GTP tunnel encapsulation and decapsulation, reliable UDP, and 5G-UPF acceleration.

    Security Acceleration

    Scenario 2

    Asterfusion® Helium DPU supports security function accelerations such as IPSec, SSL, XDP/eBPF, vFW/vLB/vNAT, DPI, and DDoS defense.

    Storage Acceleration

    Scenario 3

    Asterfusion® Helium DPU supports storage function accelerations such as NVMe-oF(TCP) and data compression/decompression.
