Windows NT brings to the server qualities derived from Microsoft’s success on the desktop. Over the past two years, industry ana- lysts, independent software vendors (ISVs) and technologists in user organizations have examined the relative strengths and weaknesses of each OS. Goulde sees sim- ilarities between Unix and NT and some differences. “The two technologies are comparable in many key areas: 32-bit sup- port, multitasking, multithreading, secu- rity, integrated networking and support for symmetric multiprocessing,” he says. “The advantages of Unix lie in its maturi- ty, standards support, distributed net- working and scalability. NT’s advantages are its ease of installation, richness of graphical administration and support for a large number of Windows applications.” Jerry Popek, chief technology officer for Platinum Technologies of Oakbrook Terrace, IL, adds that Unix offers better support for database applications, high- availability systems and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networking, while NT offers better compatibility with the Win32 application programming interface (an API specification published by Microsoft) and better support for Microsoft’s own networking protocols. 24 UniForum’s ITSolutions FEBRUARY 1996 Running applications on both plat- Enterprise forms is not the only way to integrate Proprietary them.

  • Rise of Volumetric Data and Scale-Up Enterprise Computing
    Rise of Volumetric Data and Scale-Up Enterprise Computing Sponsored by: Atos, Numascale and Intel Mise en Scene This paper captures the continued collaboration among Intel, Atos and Numascale to enable cost effective Scale-Up ecosystem on x86 server platform. Intel is the technology provider (QuickPath Interconnect, Ultra Path Interconnect), Atos is the server platform provider (BullSequana S), Numascale is the node controller architecture provider (xNC). The volumetric data is rising fast, how to process 50+ Zettabytes of today’s data through efficient computing is not a small task to say the least. This paper describes the plan, methodology and the roadmap to address this critical computing need. It will introduce Atos platform with external Node Controller (xNC) architecture, jointly developed with Numascale and creating customer value from one generation of Scale-Up server system to the next. 02 The Rise of Volumetric Data Processing: AI, Machine Learning and Natural Language Depth.Scale.Latency.Gravity.Volume As the planet hurls through the galaxy, satellites circle the globe, we humans continue to consume, build, model and render data at unprecedented levels. 200 175 150 129.5 101 100 79.5 64.5 Data volume in zetabytes 50.5 50 41 33 26 18 12.5 15.5 6.5 9 2 5 0 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018* 2019* 2020* 2021* 2022* 2023* 2024* 2025* The current data forecast for 2025 is almost One-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), more bits all help when using AI data models 175ZB (Zettabytes).
