The framework is key for developers or anyone else looking to bring the power of FPGA acceleration to their data center. CAPI SNAP will: Make it easy for developers to create new specialized algorithms for FPGA acceleration in high-level programming languages, like C++ and Go, instead of less user-friendly languages like VHDL and Verilog. Make FPGA acceleration more accessible to ISVs and other organizations to bring faster data analysis to their users. Leverage the OpenPOWER Foundation ecosystem to continually drive collaborative innovation.
