This Might Be the Last Place You'd Expect to Find an Intel Processor | 2008-01-01 | Intel |
| Finding a processing platform that runs so efficiently has been challenging for developers like GD Canada. Proprietary technology can offer the performance and power efficiency needed, but such solutions are often vendor-specific, take a very long time to develop and deploy, and can be quite costly to maintain, let alone upgrade. Intel really attacked the thermal output and power consumption problem when they came out with the Intel Pentium M processor and associated chipsets. Shortly after Intel launched the Intel Pentium M processor, the U.S. Army announced the Future Combat System (FCS) program, a move to standardize the Army's entire vehicle computing infrastructure on a common product.

United Arab Emirates Finds Partnership a Fast Path to Leadership in the Global Knowledge Economy | 2007-02-01 | IBM |
| A unit of the Higher Colleges of Technology, one of the UAE's three public universities, CERT was founded to provide an institutional framework for commercializing strategically important technologies. While boasting a per-capita income that rivals many developed nations, the UAE recognized that its future economic security depended on its successful transition to a more knowledge-based economy. In order to jumpstart its research capabilities, it needed an accelerated path to becoming a regional - and ultimately world - leader in strategic technology areas. The UAE entered into a close and strategic collaborative partnership with IBM to design a support and nurture innovation in key areas and, through knowledge transfer, create a strong foundation for the UAE's own organic research capabilities.

aSIS Seeks Consolidation From HP | 2006-12-13 01:00:24 | Hewlett-Packard |
| In the face of sustained growth over several years, aSIS had to consider the question of expanding its server park - should it continue to invest in machines piecemeal, or should it bring physical resources together in blades and keep logical resources in disk arrays? The Savoye subsidiary selected the proposal from HP and its partner, Ares. HP's plus points were the versatility and flexibility of the proposed blades, namely four HP ProLiant blade servers with two AMD Opteron processors, and two HP Integrity BL60p blade servers with two Intel Itanium 2 processors. | |||

Braskem: Invests in Intel Processor-Based Hardware Consolidation and Standardization to Achieve Excellence in the Petrochemical Industry | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | Intel |
| Braskem was created in 2002 as a result of the merger of six different companies. After the merging process was concluded, the main challenge for the Information System area was the consolidation, standardization and modernization of the system architectures and technology infrastructures previously implemented in the six different companies. The solution included: consolidation of Intel Xeon processor-based servers, aimed at modernizing the Data Center and mission-critical applications, including Business Intelligence(BI), standardization and modernization of the previously installed hardware platform with Intel Pentium 4 processor-based desktop PCs and Intel Centrino technology-based notebooks, aimed at improving the employees performance and mobility, while increasing productivity and reducing management and maintenance costs. | |||

Intelligent RAID 6 Uses Dual Independent Parity Coding Schemes for Extra Data Protection | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | Intel |
| RAID 6 is an emerging technology for shared storage systems and the large, high-capacity SATA disk arrays used in servers today. With double parity coding, intelligent RAID 6 delivers the highest level of reliability and data protection in a cost-effective solution. To produce the dual independent parity schemes in RAID 6, XOR and encoding needs to be done in hardware. The new Intel IOP333 I/O processor with Intel XScale microarchitecture was to be the first commercially available processor to provide the necessary hardware acceleration and features for RAID 6 applications. | |||

Intel Case Study: NetScaler Inc. | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | Intel |
| NetScaler's 9000 Series family of application delivery systems combine the crucial components of application optimization and security with robust switching capabilities on a single unified platform. To overcome the design challenges of building this multi-functional platform, NetScaler developers sought off-the-shelf hardware components that would complement the company's sophisticated kernel-level Request Switching packet engine. Influenced by performance, flexibility, reliability and quality, they selected the Intel Xeon processor as the core processor for NetScaler's flagship product line. This case study examines how standards-based Intel processors helped NetScaler deliver an industry-leading networking solution that not only outperforms ASIC-based solutions but also takes significantly less time to develop and costs much less to build. | |||
