IBM ha presentat aquesta setmana, juntament amb RedHat i Novell, el seu IBM eServer Application Server Advantage, altrament anomenat Chiphopper.
Chiphopper enables a single version of an ISV’s Linux application to operate across all of the IBM eServer line, from entry-level x86-based servers, blades and clusters, and Power-based servers to Linux on the mainframe, enabling many ISVs to address the approximately 40 percent of IBM’s server revenue that is non-Intel based. “A single source code runs across all of the servers,” said Scott Handy, vice president, worldwide Linux strategy at IBM.
