H-P said it will use the Calxeda technology, based on chip designs licensed from ARM Holdings PLC, as the first part of what it calls a server development platform, dubbed Redstone. The initial system can pack more than 2,800 servers in a single rack—the refrigerator-sized enclosures that ordinarily are outfitted with dozens of conventional servers. For some Web-related chores, such low-power servers can reduce energy consumption by as much as89% and use 94% less space, H-P said.http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204528204577011960642749818.html?mod=googlenews_wsj
Myös Dell huhujen mukaan harkitsee Caldexaa, perinteisesti Dell on ollut lähellä Inteliä ja HP:llä on myös paljon prosessoriyhteistyötä Intelin kanssa (Itanium).
Project Moonshot consists of a lab, server development platform and ecosystem. If successful, HP will enable its customers to kick the tires of ARM servers. HP said in a statement that the server development program—the HP Redstone Server Development Platform—will use Calxeda’s EnergyCore ARM Cortex processors.http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/hps-project-moonshot-aims-to-make-arm-servers-mainstream/62410
Arm on edullinen Linuxille, koska Microsoftilla ei ole samanlaista ohjelmistokantaetua Armilla kuin sillä on x86-arkkitehtuurissa.

Micro Serverit ovat nyt muodikkaita. Energia, Energia, Energia.
