Interesting, I kind of expected AMD to be first out the gate with one.<p>From : <a href="http://www.zdnet.com/applied-micro-canonical-claim-the-first-arm-64-bit-server-production-software-deployment-7000029958/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zdnet.com/applied-micro-canonical-claim-the-first...</a><p><i>"The X-Gene is an ARMv8 64-bit Server-on-a-Chip package running at up to 2.4GHz. It combines 10/40 Gigabit mixed signal I/O with what AMCC calls an enterprise-class memory subsystem. Compared to x86 architectures, AMCC claims that it delivers four-times the processor density while using less than 50 percent of the power and delivering comparable-to-better overall performance."</i><p>The picture shows multiple cores, but not how many. What struck me though is that they are pitching "density and less power", presumably they mean you can put twice as many of these servers in the same power foot print that you currently put x86 machines and get 8x (4x * 2) the computing power.<p>In case you are wondering, that is a 'super computer' pitch, it tickles the pain points of these arrays of super computers, but sadly it does not hit the 'web services' pain points. I'd love it if they said, 1TB of ECC protected RAM, dual 10G ethernet, and 32 full speed independent 6GB SATA channels on each server unit. That would help me make a more responsive web infrastructure.
