Applied Micro Circuits Corporation, or AppliedMicro, an industry leading provider of energy conscious silicon solutions for next generation data centers and internet infrastructure, has opened its new Bangalore design center.

The operation will drive advanced design and development of AppliedMicro’s computing and connectivity solutions and provide significant value to its technology capabilities. This is the company’s second design center in India after Pune.

AppliedMicro’s newest design center will enable the company to meet the explosive demand for “Just-Right” compute and connectivity products for enterprise and cloud data centers through the development of new products. These new products will dramatically reduce energy and the total cost of ownership (TCO) of data center infrastructure by striking the optimal blend of performance, density and power consumption. AppliedMicro is the only company to offer a complete suite of compute and connectivity silicon specifically designed for next generation data centers.

“With the launch of the X-Gene platform at the end of 2011, AppliedMicro demonstrated its innovative capabilities in the cloud computing space. We are building on this by assembling teams that can satisfy our complex and demanding engineering objectives and fuel our growth. Bangalore’s world class, highly proficient and mature talent pool complements this strategy very well, and together with our Pune center, will contribute to India being our fastest growing design location” said Paramesh Gopi, President and CEO of AppliedMicro.
