You don't need a team of POWER experts, a year-long porting project, or a dedicated platform engineering hire. Two complementary tools give you a working POWER build immediately — and a fully native one on your own schedule.
One package install. Your existing binary runs on POWER hardware immediately via the POWER Compatibility Layer.
Zero source changesAn AI agent analyzes your codebase, identifies architecture-specific paths, and generates a native ppc64le port.
Hours, not weeksFull POWER ISA execution. MMA AI acceleration. Enterprise hardware reliability. OPF-certified compatibility.
Full performanceThe OPF AI Agent Porting Skill is an agent you run against your existing codebase. It identifies every architecture-specific code path — inline assembly, platform intrinsics, endian assumptions, ABI dependencies — generates the ppc64le equivalent, runs your test suite against the output, and produces a diff-ready pull request.
What previously required a dedicated engineer with deep POWER knowledge now takes a single command. ISVs don't need to hire POWER expertise. They run the skill, review the output, and ship.
Any C, C++, Rust, Go, or Python codebase. Supports monorepos and build-system-aware analysis.
Diff-ready patch file, test results, and a per-change explanation for engineer review.
OPF-run compliance check and community certification mark for shipping confidence.
Linux ELF binaries compiled for other architectures run on POWER via PCL without modification — no source code required.
Box64 runtime translation + QEMU user-mode — open source, community-maintained, production CI tested.
Single package via dnf/apt. Works on RHEL, Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian for ppc64le.
PCL is an OPF-maintained binary compatibility stack that translates existing Linux binaries to POWER at runtime. Install one package. Your existing binary runs — on bare metal POWER hardware, at acceptable performance, with no changes to your build process or source code.
This is the bridge that eliminates the migration cliff. There is no moment where your software stops working while you wait for a native port. PCL keeps you running on day one while the AI Agent Porting Skill generates your native build on your schedule.
Any organization that builds software and wants to run it on POWER — without a platform engineering team dedicated to the port.
Add POWER as a supported platform without hiring POWER expertise. Run the porting skill, validate output, ship. OPF certification gives your customers confidence.
Your existing Linux software runs on POWER via PCL on day one. The porting skill converts it to native at your pace. No migration deadline, no hard cutover.
Your existing software stack doesn't have to be rewritten to run on sovereign compute. PCL bridges the gap while you native-port mission-critical components over time.
Offer POWER-based systems with guaranteed software compatibility from day one. PCL enables a broad software catalog on your platforms without per-ISV porting engagements.
Customers expect to lift-and-shift workloads to your POWER cloud regions. PCL makes that promise real — any Linux workload runs on arrival, then optimizes to native.
Run your research software stack on POWER HPC systems without a porting project. Focus on research output, not platform maintenance.
