IPextreme Introduces Xena

Complete Platform for Semiconductor IP Operations Comes to the Cloud

Silicon Valley, Calif. – December 6, 2011 – IPextreme, Inc., the company bringing famous IP (intellectual property) to system-on-chip designers worldwide, today announced the immediate availability of Xena™, a complete, secure, scalable platform for managing semiconductor IP.

Xena serves both semiconductor companies managing IP assets within their company and IP companies who wish to have a professional class infrastructure to manage the distribution and support of their IP products to customers. Companies of any size can benefit from Xena’s inexpensive cost structure, which can scale with their business needs.

Built on proven technology that IPextreme has developed and refined over the last seven years in supporting more than 100 customers in more than 20 countries, Xena takes advantage of the latest technology in cloud computing to provide a complete infrastructure for managing IP with employees and customers over the Internet.

The key elements of Xena include:

Xena comes in two product offerings: Xena Cloud and Xena Enterprise. In the Xena Cloud model, IPextreme provides a private Xena server for a company. The server is hosted in the cloud with IPextreme handling the administration of the host server. The company buys subscriptions for its Xena users. In the Xena Enterprise model, companies host Xena on their own internal servers, handle administration of the server, and have unlimited numbers of users.

“Over the years, we have had many requests to license our Xena technology for internal use within large semiconductor companies and today we are showing that we have heard them,” said Warren Savage, president and CEO of IPextreme. “We feel that these two product offerings make Xena available to all companies, large and small, with a business model that works for everyone.”

Xena Pricing

Subscriptions for Xena Cloud start at $200 per month for each user token, with tiered volume discounts available as the number of users grows.
