AMD Deng: APU best suited for cloud computing terminals

May 26 News, AMD recently signed a memorandum of cooperation with Beijing Cloud base, announced the establishment of a cloud computing laboratory, AMD Global senior vice president, AMD Greater China President Deng on this topic received Tencent Digital interview, Deng said that AMD in the cloud computing server and terminals have advantages, APU is the most suitable chip used in cloud computing terminals.

AMD wants to walk in front of cloud computing

Deng said that AMD and the Beijing cloud base cooperation to set up a cloud computing joint laboratory is AMD's most important project in cloud computing, but also a very important project of AMD whole company. Cloud computing, he argues, will be the fourth wave of information industry following mainframes, personal computers and the Internet. According to the plan, to 2015 the Beijing cloud computing industry scale will surpass 50 billion yuan, the drive industry chain formation 200 billion yuan output value, this also is AMD participates in the cloud computing actively one reason.

Deng also pointed out that the government wants China from the production plant to the research and development base transformation, and in the process of transition, cloud computing is a very important part, and more and more enterprises participate in the cloud, so the environment of cloud computing in China has matured. For AMD, there has been no lack of innovative DNA, from 64-bit computing to multi-core to APU,AMD has been at the forefront of the industry, so far AMD has a maximum of 12 cores and the minimum power consumption of 32W server processor. Cloud computing in the development of it is revolutionary, in this revolution, AMD hope that with the technology, product advantages and partners and the Government's strong support to walk in the front-end cloud computing.

It is understood that AMD in the world now has more than 2 million processors used in the cloud computing environment. And the author in Beijing Xiangyun Project Working group prepared the "Xiangyun Project" booklet impressively found that in this and Beijing Cloud base cooperation, AMD is so far the only one shortlisted chip manufacturers.

APU is best suited for use in cloud computing terminals

Deng said that AMD in the cloud computing server and terminals have advantages, on the server side, AMD has the x86 architecture of the most of the 12-core processor, will soon launch the 16-core new generation of Bulldozer architecture processor, high-performance, Low-power and other aspects have good performance, It also meets the flexibility requirements of cloud computing servers.

In the terminal, AMD has the most suitable APU products. Deng said that the cloud computing terminal needs to deal with a large number of graphics and video data, the terminal processor and graphics cards have higher requirements, AMD launched the APU is so the CPU and GPU "really fused" products, so that AMD in the cloud terminal has advantages.

Deng also revealed that AMD recently launched two embedded G Series APU products, TDP only 5.5W and 6.4W, is a lightweight compact, no fan embedded system ideal choice, can be widely used in digital signage, information kiosks, mobile industrial equipment, and standard small size equipment, such as terminal products, AMD is also actively developing and perfecting suitable for use in tablet computers, Internet TV and other new cloud terminals of APU products. AMD has announced that it will launch a new Low-power APU product for use in tablet computers next year.

Deng said that APU is the most suitable for use in the cloud terminal products, can not say APU will replace all CPUs, but it is undeniable that APU will be a trend of development direction.

actively participate in and promote the development of cloud computing industry

At present, cloud computing has become an important part of China's strategic emerging industries, and into the country's "Twelve-Five planning", many local governments and industry authorities have begun to actively deploy and plan their own cloud computing development strategy. Beijing Cloud Base is on the basis of the plate, has been the strong support of the Beijing municipal government. Deng said AMD is a part of the cloud computing industry and hopes to actively participate in and drive the development of cloud computing.

Deng points out that the root of cloud computing is the sharing of resources and simple applications that allow businesses or individual users to get the services they need in a cost-effective and convenient way.

Deng that the chip equivalent to the calculation of the brain, AMD in the cloud products to provide server-side and terminal needs of the chip, in the cloud computing industry to play an important role in the development of cloud computing can also play an important role in promoting, to provide users with better services.
