Sometimes, you do put new wine in old bottles. This is what it looks like Meta – well, really its Facebook social network group – is doing as it adds a microserver node based on a custom AMD “Milan” Epyc 7003 processor to its datacenter infrastructure. …
Microsoft has been among the first to build and operationalize clusters based on AMD’s Milan-X processors, which were formally announced this morning. …
The HPC community spends a lot of time tracking the development of and production use of the flagship machines deployed by the major national and academic labs of the world. …
Here is a moment that Lisa Su, the chief executive officer who has lead the team that brought AMD back into the datacenter with the vigor the market needs, has been waiting six years for. …
SPONSORED Sometimes, bad things turn into excellent opportunities that can utterly transform markets. …
The “Milan” Epyc 7003 processors, the third generation of AMD’s revitalized server CPUs, is now in the field, and we await the entry of the “Ice Lake” Xeon SPs from Intel for the next jousting match in the datacenter to begin. …
It has been a long time – more than 15 years – since AMD has been in a position to pressure larger rival Intel in supplying processors to server OEMs and ODMs for the datacenter. …
With every passing year, as AMD first talked about its plans to re-enter the server processor arena and give Intel some real, much needed, and very direct competition and then delivered again and again on its processor roadmap, it has gotten easier and easier to justify spending at least some of the server CPU budget with Intel’s archrival in the X86 computing arena. …
We have a bad case of the silicon shakes and a worsening deficiency in iron here at The Next Platform, but the good news is that new CPU processors from AMD and Intel are imminent, and more processors are expected later this year from IBM and Ampere Computing, too. …
