Case Study: Astera Labs achieves up to 40% faster time-to-market with Synopsys Cloud Solutions

Astera Labs Accelerates Time-to-Market for High-Performance Computing Systems with Synopsys Cloud Solutions

Astera Labs designs data and memory connectivity silicon and systems to remove performance bottlenecks across data centers for AI and machine learning. Facing rapidly evolving AI workloads and aggressive tapeout schedules, the company committed to 100% cloud-based development to address bandwidth, capacity, and performance gaps and accelerate product delivery.

By partnering with Synopsys and running Synopsys Cloud tools in an AWS BYOC model with FlexEDA pay-per-use licensing, Astera Labs scaled compute more than tenfold, ran thousands of regressions in parallel, and completed full cloud-based design flows. The result: faster, higher-quality tapeouts and significantly accelerated time-to-market — including up to 40% savings from RTL to tapeout, roughly 30% less chip completion time, and a three-to-four month reduction in design schedule.
