An interesting solution for home laboratories, small test rooms or maintenance-free points where 1-2-3 pieces of equipment are placed, and every square centimeter is worth its weight in gold I often came up with the idea: why not place servers vertically, because if you do not have a special server rack, but have a 1U-4U machine, and even a full length of 655 mm, then this bandura will take up the entire room, the entire table or rack. No, I'm not saying that server cabinets are outdated and ...

Why when choosing a processor, do not pay attention to the price per core or the price per Watt, but rather use the cost of a Megahertz with HT disabled and using Turbo Boost? Here's how it used to be good: for servers, there was a single Pentium Pro processor, which you didn't need to choose. With the advent of multi-core processors, it became clear that the more computing blocks, the better, but only until marketers stepped in and pided one CPU into ten sockets with ten cache options and ...

In this article, we will talk about alternatives to following Moore's law, and which technologies can be used in data centers of the future. Until today, processor manufacturers have been forced to follow Moore's law in order to produce a new generation of chips with higher performance and lower power consumption. In our time, the picture of the world has changed. Research around the world suggests a wide variety of architectures that are more productive and consume less energy. In this ...

It happened! Now, for every 32 physical cores in the server, you will need a license for 1 processor socket. Bad news for AMD, but don't jump to conclusions - there's still time to buy EPYC. I hope you had time to enjoy how your new 1-socket server on AMD EPYC smartly replaces 2 or even 4 old servers on Xeon E5, and at the same time you deduct a mere penny for the hypervisor license? The freebie is over: now VMware changes the license policy, considering that there are no more than 32 cores ...
