AMD on Wednesday unveiled its Opteron 4000 Series processors, and the first server platform designed from the ground up for the cloud, the No. 2 chip maker said.
"Until now, customers wanting to build a dense and power-efficient cloud or hyperscale data center had to shoehorn expensive, higher-end solutions into their computing environment, or they had to choose low-power client-based designs that may not have offered the right level of performance and server functionality," said Patrick Patla, corporate vice president and general manager, Server and Embedded Division, AMD. "With the AMD Opteron 4000 Series platform, these customers now have a server platform that is extremely power- and cost-efficient, allows a high degree of customization, and is also an ideal solution for high-end embedded systems."
The new Opteron 4000 Series ship in four- and six-core designations, each one rated at less than 6W per core resulting in up to a 24 percent power reduction over the previous generation parts.
