IBM gunning for more market shares
IBM is looking to Google and Nvidia – to name a few – to license IBM's power chip technology, in order to appeal to more users, and a bigger portion of the market.
OpenPower Consortium – the newly founded alliance – between IBM, Google, Mellanox Technologies, Nvidia Corp as well as server supplier Tyan Computer, will together – based on the chips for cloud data centers – develop and build server, networking and storage technology, according to a Reuters report.
IBM's hardware and software will be open for development and also licensable to others.
