Accelerate Secure Networking with Hardware-Based QUIC

Published date

As network traffic volumes continue to grow and security requirements become more stringent, software-based transport stacks are struggling to keep up. CPU-bound encryption, protocol processing overhead, and limited scalability are now major barriers to achieving full bandwidth utilization.

This is where hardware-based QUIC acceleration makes a critical difference.

QUIC10GCIP-1GbE from Design Gateway is a fully hardware-implemented QUIC client IP that enables secure, high-throughput data transfer over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet, while significantly reducing CPU load and improving system efficiency.

🔐 Why High-Throughput Hardware QUIC Matters

QUIC (RFC 9000) and HTTP/3 were designed to maximize transport efficiency and security. However, when implemented purely in software, throughput often becomes limited by CPU performance—especially when TLS encryption and congestion control are involved.

By offloading QUIC and TLS 1.3 processing entirely into FPGA hardware, QUIC10GCIP-1GbE enables:

✅ Sustained high-throughput encrypted data transfer
✅ Maximum bandwidth utilization over 1GbE
✅ Reduced CPU utilization for data-plane processing
✅ Stable and predictable performance under heavy traffic

This makes QUIC10GCIP-1GbE ideal for data-intensive networking systems where throughput and efficiency are the top priorities.

⚙️ Key Capabilities of QUIC10GCIP-1GbE

🔹 Pure Hardware Logic All transport-layer and cryptographic processing is implemented in FPGA logic, allowing the CPU to focus on control-plane tasks and applications.

🔹 High-Throughput 0-RTT Session Resumption Rapid reconnections without full handshakes help maintain continuous data flow and throughput, especially in persistent or frequently reconnecting systems.

🔹 HTTP/3 and Custom High-Performance Protocols Supports standard HTTP/3 traffic as well as custom application protocols optimized for bulk data transfer.

🔹 Proven Interoperability Validated with aioquic and Microsoft MsQuic, ensuring reliable integration with real-world QUIC ecosystems.
