Red Hat optimises Linux for new multi-core Intel and AMD chips
,----[ Quote ]
| Open source enterprise software company Red
| Hat has updated its flagship operating
| system, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), to
| take full advantage of the latest spoils
| from the heated microprocessor battle
| between Advanced Micro Devices and Intel.
| RHEL version 5.5, released this week, has
| been reconfigured for Intel's just-released
| eight-core Nehalem-EX and AMD's almost-as-
| recently released 12-core "Magny-Cours"
| Opteron 6100 Series processors, said Tim
| Burke, Red Hat vice president for platform
| engineering. The software also supports the
| IBM eight-core Power7 processors, released
| in February.
|
| "This is a great time for the next version
| of RHEL to hit the market," said Pund-IT
| analyst Charles King. This latest round in
| the continued proliferation of cores within
| AMD, IBM and Intel processors represents an
| "inflection point" for the industry, one
| that could spur a lot of data centre server
| consolidation, through the use of
| virtualisation, he said.
