Understanding Axelera product names

An Axelera product name tells you three things at a glance: what it's optimized for, which architecture it uses, and its form factor.

The pattern​

Axelera <descriptor> <number><form> — for example, Axelera Embedded 113m.

Descriptor — what it's optimized for​

Descriptor	Optimized for
Embedded	space-constrained designs
Edge	edge systems and appliances
Server	server deployments

The number and form factor​

Part	Tells you
1st digit	silicon architecture — 1 is Metis; as new architectures arrive, each takes a number here
2nd digit	the optimization lane (matches the descriptor)
3rd digit	relative performance
letter	form factor — m M.2, p PCIe, c compute board

So Embedded 113m = Metis architecture, Embedded, performance tier 3, M.2.

"Optimized for" is a starting point, not a limit​

The descriptor tells you where a card performs best — not the only place you can use it. Choose the card that fits your workload. If an Embedded card is the most efficient fit inside a server, use it there.

Architecture vs. product​

Metis is the silicon architecture inside today's products; the Embedded / Edge / Server names are the products themselves. Voyager, our software platform, is unchanged — as are product part numbers (AX-xxxxxx).

Current range​

Product	Optimized for	Form factor
Axelera Embedded 110m	Embedded	M.2
Axelera Embedded 111c	Embedded	Compute board
Axelera Embedded 113m	Embedded	M.2
Axelera Edge 130p	Edge	PCIe
Axelera Server 150p	Server	PCIe
