Andreas Duffner is a University of Mannheim alumnus. He graduated with a Master's in Economics in 1985.

Xelera's software makes state-of-the-art accelerator technology accessible to commercial applications in the data center and in the cloud.

Due to the growing data volume and emerging demand for real-time analytics, businesses are increasingly required to build up accelerated data processing capabilities. FPGAs and GPUs will become an integral part of tomorrow’s data centers, cloud services and IoT infrastructure, powering a broad range of constantly evolving business applications.

Accelerator technology can provide orders-of-magnitude acceleration to business-critical applications using Big Data analytics, machine learning, database management and to IoT infrastructures. FPGAs boost the energy efficiency of data center servers and can substantially reduce TCO.

Despite the tremendous benefits delivered by FPGAs and GPUs, there still exists a large gap between applications and the processor technology today.

Xelera Technologies develops software to bridge this gap. Xelera Technologies has been selected to receive funding under the EXIST Technology Transfer Program. The program is financed by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy (BMWi) and is co-funded by the European Union.
