About this tag
Project Olympus is Microsoft's open, modular server reference design for hyperscale cloud environments. Tagged content discusses its role in enabling ARM-based server deployments, specifically the Qualcomm Centriq 2400, demonstrated at the Open Compute Project summit in 2017. The design emphasizes flexibility in compute, networking, and power, allowing cloud operators to move beyond x86 architectures. Azure ported key server components to ARM for internal testing, showcasing Project Olympus as a platform for heterogeneous computing in the cloud.
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...
