modular server

The modular server tag covers discussions around Microsoft's Project Olympus, an open, modular server reference design for hyperscale cloud operators. Content highlights how this modular approach enables flexibility in compute, networking, and power, as seen in the 2017 demonstration of Qualcomm's Centriq 2400 ARM-based processors on Project Olympus motherboards. The tag focuses on hardware modularity in data center environments, particularly Microsoft's efforts to support ARM architectures and open standards for cloud infrastructure. Topics include server design, cloud hardware, and enterprise IT deployments.
