AMD Opteron™ Processor Benefits

The AMD Opteron processor provides a highly scalable architecture that delivers next-generation performance as well as a flexible upgrade path from 32- to 64-bit computing. With a single architecture designed to meet current and future business needs, the AMD Opteron processor can help to minimize the integration complexities presented by business environments today and in the future.

Feature Benefit
Simultaneous 32- and 64-bit computing capabilities Allows users to run 32-bit and/or 64-bit applications and operating systems as they desire—without sacrificing performance
Support of up to three (3) coherent HyperTransport links, providing up to 19.2GB/s peak bandwidth per processor Provides substantial I/O bandwidth for your current and future application needs
256 Terabytes of memory address space Creates a significant performance benefit for applications in which large (or many) datasets are held in memory
Scales from 1-way to 8-way across entire data or compute centers utilizing the same hardware and software infrastructure Allows for maximum flexibility in IT infrastructure, helping contribute to bottom line success
Integrated memory controller reduces latencies during memory access in a SMP server system Yields fast computational processing for increased performance and productivity

Putting the AMD Opteron™ processor to work

The AMD Opteron processor is available in 1 to 8-way servers and 1 to 4-way workstation solutions. Usage segments for the processor include:

  • Worldwide Enterprises, Small-Medium Businesses, and Government/Education Institutions
  • Companies who require faster database transactions, or support for more users on e-commerce type applications
  • Customers needing quick graphics response such as Broadcasting and Film Studios
  • Industries with computational intensive tasks for financial modeling and scientific applications

LMA has developed a revolutionary way to manage and control video signals, taking advantage of the power of OPTERON and Hypertransport technology. This will enable LMA to move data more efficiently across the storage disk array and Bus, giving the user more power to manage media data more efficently and more affordably.  LMA can assist you in building your own products to utilize OPTERON and Hypertransport technology with Linux interfaces and system inter-operability.
