Downtime costs are skyrocketing in today's real-time, 24/7 business world. Intel Itanium-based servers offer a cost-effective solution, with enterprise-class systems that rival mainframes and high-end RISC systems for availability, yet...
HP chief technology officer Shane Robison said the double-whammy chips will enable HP processors to leapfrog the performance of IBM's Power processor family. IBM's current Power4 processor was the first "dual-core" server chip, taking advantage of...
The delay of the Athlon 64, which was originally set for launch months ago, is likely to erode the chip's performance lead over Intel's Pentium 4 processors, although the Athlon 64 is based on 64-bit technology and the Pentium 4 is a 32-bit...
Like Via Technologies or Silicon Integrated Systems, which also offer chipsets for Intel processors, Intel chose DDR400. A possible glitch with its new processor has thrown a spanner into Intel's plans to bring out new high-performance chips for...
Sun cancelled development of its high-end UltraSparc V processor earlier this year, a move that wasn't related to the Fujitsu deal, said Marc Tremblay, Sun fellow and chief architect of the company's processors and network products.
Faced with steadily improving x86 processors such as its Xeon and AMD's Opteron, Intel has redefined Itanium as a chip chiefly for high-end servers. The PC maker said it prefers to focus on systems using Intel's Xeon processor.
Intel Virtualization Technology - code-named Vanderpool and now emerging in server processors - accelerates some operations and makes it possible to run Windows on Xen without modifications to Windows that otherwise would be necessary.
