IBM (News - Alert) has recently welcomed Servergy, Inc., a specialist in developing clean and green technology for data center and embedded applications, to be part of its OpenPower Foundation.


By joining the OpenPower Foundation, Servergy has bagged the chance to initiate industry advancement of high-performance, clean and green power architecture in the data center. Servergy will be joining the other members in the foundation such as Google, Mellanox, NVIDIA, Samsung (News - Alert) Electronics, Tyan and Suzhou PowerCore Technology Company.

“We are proud to be an IBM Business Partner and to join the OpenPOWER Foundation,” said Bill Mapp, Servergy founder, chairman and CEO. “We believe that when people collaborate on the power and potential of open technology in exciting new ways, together we can help change our world. Working with the OpenPOWER Foundation, we’re excited about helping accelerate the velocity of power architecture innovation."

Founded back in August, the OpenPower Foundation aims to build advanced server, networking, storage and acceleration technology based on IBM’s Power hardware and software. The ultimate goal is to introduce more choice, control and flexibility to developers of next generation, hyperscale and cloud data centers. This marks the first time that Power products have ever been available for open development.

Servergy will work together within the Foundation on different opportunities using its clean and green technology on Power architecture with scale-up and scale-out proficiency for Big Data, caching, streaming, cloud workload, and distributed storage application in data centers.

Officials at Servergy said that their company will expand its product line by introducing future OpenPOWER-compliant systems backed by IBM's POWER microprocessors. This will bring in new levels of performance and capability in Servergy's Cleantech Server class of clean and green Linux on Power System server products.

“The collaborative development model of the OpenPOWER Foundation represents a major shift in the way processor technology can be exploited and innovated around for new buyers and markets,” said Doug Balog, General Manager, IBM Power Systems.
