White Paper The Unisys Oracle ERP environment was previously supported by a UNIX based 24-processor Unisys ES7000 server employing Intel Xeon processors MP. Implementing a 64-bit architecture suited the intense processing and high-availability requirements... [07 May 2005]
Itanium workstation on the way from SGI
Instead, it chose to focus on machines using AMD's Opteron and Intel's Xeon - models that remain compatible with x86 chips such as Pentium but that add 64-bit support useful for jobs that need large quantities of memory. [26 Apr 2005]
HP spruces up Opteron lines
Then another significant ally: HP, which had co-developed a rival Intel 64-bit processor, Itanium, which was largely incompatible with software written for x86 chips such as Xeon or Opteron. In addition, he said, "Dual-core Opteron has a huge... [21 Apr 2005]
Microsoft backs Itanium with Longhorn
The vast majority of Windows operating systems run on mainstream x86 processors such as Intel's Xeon or AMD's Opteron. Itanium's 64-bit nature isn't as much of a differentiation now that Xeon and Opteron have become available with the 64-bit... [11 Apr 2005]
Dual-core Opterons to debut early
Opteron was the first to bring 64-bit extensions that make it easy for x86 chips to accommodate more than 4GB of memory, a feature that only arrived in all Intel's rival Xeon processor models in March. [08 Apr 2005]
Exchange Server 12 to ship in 2006
Lees spoke at the event to announce Intel's latest high-end Xeon processors, models that incorporate new 64-bit features to easily accommodate more memory and which next year will be replaced by models with dual-processing engines, or cores. [31 Mar 2005]
Microsoft Exchange update expected next year
News Lees spoke at an event in San Francisco to announce Intel's latest high-end Xeon processors, models that incorporate new 64-bit features to easily accommodate more memory and which next year will be replaced by models with dual-processing engines... [31 Mar 2005]
HP refreshes server lines
Intel's latest Xeon processors, which bring 64-bit memory extensions to four-processor servers, include a lower-end model code-named Cranford and a higher-end model code named Potomac with more built-in cache memory. [30 Mar 2005]
Revamped top-end Xeons unveiled
Intel released on Tuesday a new generation of Xeon chips, its first high-end models to include 64-bit features designed to easily accommodate large amounts of memory. The new Xeon MP models, designed for machines with four processors, include the... [30 Mar 2005]
Dell in double-headed four-way server launch
The hardware maker introduced its Dell PowerEdge 6800 and PowerEdge 6850 server models, each of which feature four of Intel's latest 64-bit Xeon processors. Intel first released the 64-bit feature, which vastly increases the amount of memory a... [24 Mar 2005]
Intel 'targeting IBM' with Itanium
Also at the show, Intel released a large dose of plans for its Xeon server processors through 2007. Intel missed its Itanium shipment goals for 2004, but the company is still investing in the technology, arguing that a "one size fits all" approach... [02 Mar 2005]
Itanium dealt another blow
IBM remains a major supporter of Intel's Xeon processor, a server-oriented member of the x86 family of chips such as Pentium. IBM's new X3 chipset -- essential technology that joins processors to each other and to all computer subsystems... [28 Feb 2005]
Big Blue remains top of the server heap
Despite AMD's earlier arrival, more revenue came from servers using Intel's 64-bit Xeon chips, McLaughlin said: $1.3bn for Xeon servers compared to $838m for Opteron servers. In contrast, dramatic growth took place with servers using x86 processors... [24 Feb 2005]
Dell dashes AMD's hopes
But Intel -- which also introduced 64-bit extensions into its Xeon server chips and sped up its plans to deliver dual-core processors in 2004 -- has since turned things around, Rollins said. Dell continues to sell only computers with Intel chips. [24 Feb 2005]
IBM revamps Xeon server design
IBM won't confirm the identity of these, but they are believed to be Intel's "Cranford" Xeon MP chips, the first multiprocessor-capable processors to include 64 bit support. IBM announced the eServer X3 architecture on Tuesday, the third major... [22 Feb 2005]
