The 64-Core Power6-Based Power 595 Starts to Roll in May
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
At a customer event that IBM hosted in San Francisco on Tuesday, the company finished fleshing out the big missing piece in its recently unified Power6-based server family: the Power 595. Like the Power5 and Power5+ System p 595 and System i 595 machines that precede it, the Power 595 server scales up to 64 processor cores and thanks to denser memory and a redesigned backplane and interconnect, can scale up to 4 TB of main memory in a single system image.

HP Rejiggers HP-UX 11i Packaging as Update 2 Ships
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
As part of its rollout of the 'Vibrancy' tweak of its HP-UX 11i v3 operating system for PA-RISC and Itanium servers, known publicly as Update 2, Hewlett-Packard this week is repackaging its HP-UX operating system in four new editions that the company says better fits the way that customers consume its soft wares on its hardware. The delivery of Update 2 is significant because it came right on time, unlike the much-delayed initial HP-UX 11i v3 release. READ MORE >

Sun Gangs Up Sparc T2+ Chips with Maramba Servers
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
There is still enough competition in the Unix space to make vendors hate to see each other get the limelight. Which is one of the reasons why Sun Microsystems has timed the launch of its 'Victoria Falls' Sparc T2+ multicore processor and the related 'Maramba' server line in the same week that IBM is launching big Power6 boxes and Hewlett-Packard is rolling out an update to its HP-UX Unix and a repackaging of the software.

The Power 575: Grandfather of the Multi-Teraflops Power7 Monster
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
This week, as part of the further fleshing out of IBM's Power6-based servers and alongside the launch of the 64-core Power 595 server, Big Blue also launched a new super-dense Power 575 server node aimed specifically at high performance computing workloads, not the general database and application serving that other Power-based servers typically do. The Power 575 is not just one of the densest computers ever built. It is also laying the groundwork for a future Power7-based machine that promises an order of magnitude improvement in processing capacity per unit of rack space. READ MORE >
