AMD: Server Platform Promotes Power Efficiency.Aa With the introduction of the Six-Core AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, www.amd.com) A major manufacturer of semiconductor devices including x86-compatible CPUs, embedded processors, flash memories, programmable logic devices and networking chips. Opteron processor with Chipset platform, AMD is taking a step in its strategy to provide customers with server platforms, it said. These address the requirements of datacentre workloads, the vendor added. The new server platform, along with the AMD platform specification, code-named 'Kroner', enables performance, provides the benefits of a unified processor and chipset technology, while furthering energy efficiency, the vendor claimed. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. the company, the 'Kroner' twin server design specification offers platform elements such as voltage regulation Voltage regulation The change in voltage magnitude that occurs when the load (at a specified power factor) is reduced from the rated or nominal value to zero, with no intentional manual readjustment of any voltage control, expressed in percent of nominal and the ability to remotely set power caps, to help drive down power consumption for hyperscale customers. The platform also offers energy efficiency with a new low-power AMD chipset to meet demands of cloud and dense server environments, the company added. Unified platforms can improve design efficiency, technology integration and enable enhanced platform features among CPUs, according to AMD. The vendor also said that additional OEMs are expected to incorporate the new AMD server chipset into their systems. "Our focus is to deliver on the aspects of a server platform that impacts the IT manager, such as improved performance on workloads and virtualisation and low power consumption," said Patrick Patla, VP and GM- Server and Embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. Business, AMD. "This new platform and 'Kroner' allow our OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and customers to deliver solutions to solve datacenter problems," he added.
