06 Years development trend of Server Core technology

Multi-core server    server processors in 2005 by AMD Dual-core Opteron, Intel Corporation dual-core Xeon Paxville, Sun Company 8 nuclear UltraSPARC T1 kicked off, in 2006, The further support and optimization of the operating system and application software for multi-core processors, the maturity of the 65 nanometer chip manufacturing process, the development of low power technologies represented by AMD powernow! and Intel EiST, and the maturity of the chip-level virtualization technology, Will drive a further manifestation of the trend of server processor multicore. Multi-Core technology will become an important technical fulcrum for 2006 server technologies, and more multi-core server processors will debut in 2006, including the four nuclear Opteron of Intel Corporation Xeon Dempsey, the dual-core Itanium MONTECITO,AMD company, Sun's Niagara II, "multicore era" is coming. Blade server technology to market began in 1999, 2001 began to develop Blade Swich and storage virtualization, 2004 years of emphasis on the overall performance of the Blade server, 2005-year focus on blade server specialization. 2006, Blade server products in multi-core, Low-power technology will be driven from the initial pursuit of high density of the first generation of blades, to emphasize the overall comprehensive performance, high productivity of the second generation of blade products. In the future, blades will be the focus of more high-density, agile deployment and maintenance, two management, high scalability, and high availability, and the blade becomes a mature mainstream product with rack-and-server servers. The hallmark of the pan-high performance computing era is the widespread use of high-performance computing in all walks of life, with low barriers to application, including low prices, easy management, ease of access, and rich applications. Industrial standardization cluster is the only way to the era of pan-high performance computing, in 2006, the development and standardization of remote/off-site operation control, integrated monitoring, load balancing, intelligent cabinet, heterogeneous support, cluster simple management, cluster rapid deployment, cluster high speed I/O, cluster security, industry application, etc. will promote the industrial standardization fleet to further be widely accepted by the industry application. The market will appear with high-performance computing popularization as the goal, to cluster standardization technology as the support of desktop-type high-performance computer products. The key applications of information construction are dominated and monopolized by traditional RISC minicomputer, and they are all closed systems with the technology of an enterprise as its core. With the development of 64-bit, multi-core, low-power x86 architecture processors, Linux, Open Solaris, Windows, and other operating systems have further support for 8-32-way x86 architecture SMP servers, especially in terms of reliability, stability, As well as middleware technology and large-scale application of enterprise platform-independent trend, in 2006, based on open and standard 64-bit X86 architecture multi-channel SMP server will be able to challenge the traditional minicomputer in the key application areas of information construction, and through the further integration of high end applications, such as finance, telecommunication and so on, with high cost performance as the competitive advantage, and become our Country Server Enterprise Challenge International Enterprise monopoly position, The feasible way to realize the low cost informatization in our country. Microsoft virtual Server, vmware VMware Workstation, XenSource Xen, IBM hypervisor technology, Intel's Vanderpool and Silvervale, AMD's Pacifica, Sun's Solaris Zone, HP's three-tier virtualization specification, virtualization technologies, and virtualization products provide compelling reasons to believe that virtualization technology will evolve at the system, component and application levels in 2006, with higher components and system-level utilization, It brings a highly reliable server application environment with transparent load balancing, dynamic migration, automatic fault isolation, automatic reconfiguration of system, and a more concise and unified management mode of server resource allocation. The architecture of high-performance and highly efficient computers is on the eve of groundbreaking innovation, with IBM Percs program, SUN  hero program, Cray Cascade Program, our million/quadrillion high-performance computer program, The depth and breadth of computer architecture innovation will be further developed. Storage seas (Sea of memory), memory embedded processor (PIM), Interval arithmetic, asynchronous SMP, smart memory, proximity communication, hyper-parallel architecture (Hyper Parallel processing), heterogeneous multi-core, in 2006, It is expected that the new results of the system's innovation will emerge. In 2006, based on the internal and external network isolation, unified identity authentication, access control, distributed intrusion detection, traffic analysis, application layer and transmission layer Encryption transmission Protocol, active protection and other technologies, will create an integrated server security framework, so that from the physical layer to the application layer of all-round, multi-level, Three-dimensional server application Security computing environment. Grid computing, WEB service technology, Thin Client computing, On-demand Computing, Utility Computing, these technologies have driven the rise of service computing application patterns. In the 2006, the server as an indispensable organic carrier, will be further realized in the form of service computing, based on thin client computing, pervasive computing as the goal of computing fusion. Capability server as a service Computing application mode, the product form will appear.
