About this tag
The Centriq 2400 is an ARM-based server processor from Qualcomm that Microsoft tested in its Azure cloud infrastructure around 2017. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover its role in Microsoft's Project Olympus, an open modular server design for hyperscale data centers. The Centriq 2400 was demonstrated at the Open Compute Project summit, showing Microsoft's shift toward ARM architecture for cloud workloads. Topics include ARM server adoption, Azure compatibility, and the processor's potential for energy-efficient computing in enterprise environments.
Microsoft’s cloud hardware playbook took a visible step off the x86 roadmap in 2017 when the company publicly embraced ARM-based server designs — demonstrating Qualcomm’s Centriq 2400 on Project Olympus motherboards at the Open Compute Project summit and confirming Azure had ported key server...
