Univa,
the Data Center Automation Company, today announced that its Univa
Grid Engine software will support ARM
(LON: ARM; Nasdaq: ARMH), the world's leading semiconductor intellectual
property (IP) supplier. ARM designs the technology that is at the heart
of advanced digital products, from wireless, networking and consumer
entertainment solutions to imaging, automotive, security and storage
devices. With Univa Grid Engine supporting ARM, dynamic workloads are
automatically placed, enabling ARM to perform tasks far more quickly and
efficiently. Univa Grid Engine for ARM Beta is available immediately at http://www.univa.com/resources/univa-grid-engine-arm-beta.php.
“Large enterprise users have become increasingly interested in using
ARM-based chips in the data center as the focus shifts from performance
to making their servers more energy efficient,” said Fritz Ferstl, Univa
CTO. “ARM-based servers support multiple use cases in the modern data
center as part of a larger trend toward matching the server hardware to
the workload. Univa Grid Engine, the leading intelligent workload
management solution in the enterprise, excels at automating the
placement of dynamic workloads across all architectures from Intel
x86_64, Intel Xeon Phi, NVIDIA GPGPUs and now ARM-based resources.”
“Driven by the demand for new datacenter services to support mobile and
cloud computing, ARM will continue to gain in-roads into the datacenter
server market because of the low-power and energy efficient design of
SOC's based on ARM's technology,” said Karl Freund, VP Marketing at
Calxeda. “As enterprises shift towards highly scalable solutions such as
Calxeda, a key enabling technology is intelligent workload management –
and we have partnered with Univa to provide our customers with a great
solution.”
Univa Grid Engine is the industry leading distributed resource
management platform that enables shared infrastructures under multiple
workloads including Hadoop, a Big Data software framework that supports
data-intensive distributed applications. Sharing the infrastructure
allows enterprises to more efficiently and rapidly deploy and to
operationalize a mission critical Hadoop application.
