Compaq teams with Corollary for 8-CPU servers
Published: 14 Oct 1997 11:33 BST
The pair have agreed to share technology in order to match Corollary's Profusion multiprocessing architecture with Compaq's I/O technology to boost next-generation Intel 'Deschutes' processors and the Slot 2 architecture. Additionally, Corollary gets to license Compaq's PCI Hot Plug technology that lets upgrades be performed without powering down servers.
In a prepared statement, Corollary president George White said the deal "further establishes Intel-based multiprocessing as the new standard for enterprise computing".
Compaq said its currently shipping ProLiant 7000 is upgradable to the eight-way architecture.
