New POWER7 workload optimizing systems

IBM today announced new POWER7™ systems designed to manage the most demanding emerging applications, ranging from smart electrical grids to real-time analytics for financial markets. The new systems incorporate a number of industry-unique technologies for the specialized demands of new applications and services that rely on processing an enormous number of concurrent transactions and data while analyzing that information in real time. One early user, Rice University, is taking advantage of the new processing power to accelerate their research on a cure for cancer.

Here's one of our latest analyst reports "Why trying to save can cost". Waiting to upgrade can actually increase datacenter costs, read the IDC analysis. Offer registration required. Download the report@ www.ibm.com/services/forms/signup.do?sou­rce=stg-web&S_PKG=500021485

And to think that Wii U is going to run on a derivitive of this architecture.

Was that a pull-out SRC/Control panel? That was neat!

lol today i saw in holland the biggest dutch computer it had 6 power6 servers and 30km wiring 160gbit a sec and a memory of 900tb and a 3050 or somethin like that cores and every core had 300gb and they had 2 backup systems with eatch 11000 flops of eatch 1tb and a cooling system its AWESOME srry im only 12

Optimizing an OS for two different architectures would take a lot of resources, but its fun to imagine. Think of a Mac Pro with Power7's, 8 cores per chip, two chips per module, two modules, and 4 SMT threads per chip....You do the math.

Anxious for P7 FHA release...

I want this to be in my computer!

IBM is the leading worldest IT company. bravo IBM

1.2 billion transistor, 8 cores with 4 threads each, DO want! :O
