面对在生意场上共同的竞争对手英特尔,SUN公司负责处理器研究开发的公司副总裁颜伟伦博士说出了这么一句话:“敌人的敌人就是朋友。”在英特尔咄咄逼人的攻势面前,SUN与AMD都遭遇了公司历史上最大的困难。颜博士坦言:“安腾就好像是(绝世)剑客,尽管还没有出手(目前仍旧没有成熟的整体解决方案),但光凭他所发出的剑气(媒体的宣传等等)就已经杀死了Alpha和PA-RISC这两个原本非常优秀的64位处理器。”而对于AMD,其最大的杀手锏Ahlon 64处理器仍未面世,而其Athlon XP处理器在奔腾4处理器的凶猛攻势下,处境也非常不利。在这样的情况下,SUN与AMD之间的合作只会是一个时间问题,关键是在于合作的内容以及合作的程度。 SUN在上周给了我们一个答案:SUN将在其基于x86芯片的刀片服务器中应用AMD的移
In the face of common competitors in the business Intel, Dr. Yen Wei Lun, vice president of processor research and development company SUN said: “The enemy’s enemies are friends.” In front of Intel’s aggressive offensive, SUN and AMD Have suffered the biggest difficulties in the history of the company. Dr. Yan said frankly: “Itanium is like a (peerless) swordsman. Although he has not shot yet (there is still no mature overall solution at present), it has been killed by his sword strength (media propaganda, etc.) Alpha and PA-RISC, two very good 64-bit processors. ”And for AMD, its biggest killer, the Ahlon 64 processor, has not been available yet, and its Athlon XP processor, powered by the fierce Pentium 4 processor, The situation is also very negative. Under such circumstances, the cooperation between SUN and AMD can only be a matter of time. The key lies in the content of cooperation and the degree of cooperation. SUN gave us an answer last week: SUN will use AMD’s move in its x86-based blade server
