LMA is
building its entire
product line of broadcasting and film software and hardware products to
be optimized on the AMD OPTERON and ATHLON 64 bit processor
technologies. AMD 64 Bit technology is an advanced highly powerful
processor technology that, LMA believes, will revolutionize the entire
media management and production industries. The industry
is welcoming the long awaited dream of real-time HD media based
management, editing, effects, and capturing/playback capabilities. LMA
offers all of these products with either Open Source and Open
Architecture Linux operating systems and all at extremely attractive
pricing. With breakthrough hardware and software innovations,
LMA will overcome the complexities,
cost, and functional limitations of current media management systems.
LMA systems, employing AMD Opteron based systems will enable the
customer to have a streamlined media based management
and production system that enables simplicity to open-systems
on-line storage environments through broadly scalable,
highly efficient and controllable storage platforms. LMA is
developing skills and techniques to perfect our own applications and
systems to OPTERON. We would also like to assist you in this endeavor,
utlizing the experienced LMA engineering staff.
The AMD Opteron processor
integrates key system elements:
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.
