HCLTech, a leading global technology company, announced the launch of an Electronic Design Automation (EDA) solution in partnership with NetApp, to enable enterprises in the semiconductor industry to accelerate large EDA implementations in the hybrid cloud to significantly reduce their time-to-market, enhance the overall quality and improve the reliability of their products.
With HCLTech’s new joint offering, clients can leverage NetApp’s Design Anywhere solution to streamline the entire semiconductor design process, from concept to manufacturing, with improved scalability and flexibility. Enterprises can harness the power of hybrid cloud to efficiently manage growing data volume and workflow complexities.
HCLTech will support clients running large EDA projects by optimizing their IT environments, managing infrastructure orchestration and scheduling for EDA workloads along with associated services. HCLTech will also deliver the EDA solution in various consumption models as per client requirements in partnership with NetApp.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with NetApp to unlock the power of hybrid and multi-cloud to help enterprises transform operations and build resilience across their digital businesses. Our new joint solution will enable our clients make the most of their high-performance compute workloads across a wide range of private or public clouds,” said Rampal Singh, Head Hybrid Cloud Services, HCLTech.
“The power and availability delivered in the cloud creates new opportunities for our customers to run EDA workloads without the risks of overprovisioning or capacity shortfalls. NetApp’s expertise in unifying data helps HCLTech clients unlock the potential of their hybrid cloud investments to make their product development process more flexible and efficient,” said Cesar Cernuda, President, NetApp.

Connect the Dots: Proactive Controlled Impedance
05/29/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsFrom data centers to smartphones, designers know that the ohms have it. Getting impedance right ensures all-important signal integrity and delivers high-performing boards. Our designers understand the importance of controlled impedance, but not everyone addresses it in their designs. The most common and important controlled impedance types we see include microstrip, stripline, embedded microstrip, and differential pairs.
