HP released Ubuntu-based ARM server for the first time

In November 2, Hewlett-Packard and Canonical announced the world's first ARM Server Based on the Ubuntu11.10 Operating System (ARM processor version), as shown in:-HPRedstonePlatformSingle, as shown in, the "Armor" (just like it) composed of "on-Chip Systems") covers the server rack and forms an enterprise-level server suitable for Internet data centers with low power consumption, ARM server is not a dream

In November 2, HP and Canonical announced the world's first ARM Server Based on the Ubuntu 11.10 Operating System (ARM processor version), as shown in:

-HP Redstone Platform Single

As shown in the following figure, the "Armor" consisting of many ARM processors (SoC, namely the "on-chip system") is covered on the server rack, it constitutes an enterprise-level server suitable for Internet data centers with low power consumption. So far, ARM servers are not a dream.

Canonical announced in this official statement: "The good news is that Canonical has been working with ARM and Calexda for several years now and we released the first version of Ubuntu Server ported for ARM Cortex A9 class processors last month, in fact, the story of the ARM server has been around for several years.

Canonical indicates in the statement: "this is beginning of a journey to re-inventing a power efficient and less complex data center. we look forward to working with HP and Calxeda on that journey ", which means that the release of the hp arm server marks the beginning of a new invention with power-saving efficiency and a simple data center architecture.

This is another piece of good news from the UDS conference. The system performance of this ARM server will be further optimized and improved in the next six months. Canonical believes: "Ubuntu is the perfect choice for big data, web and cloud infrastructure workloads", which means that Ubuntu is the cloud center (Architecture) for processing big data loads) (Note: TCP Offload Engine is not included, the so-called "TCP uninstall Engine ").

Note: See Ubuntu and HP Will Power ARM Data Centers, which means "ARM Data Center" is no longer a dream. We can imagine that the "ARM cloud center" and the mobile "cloud terminal" based on the Unity interface are the future stories of Ubuntu. Are you willing to continue?
