CPU to Cloud

CPU TO CLOUD A history Remember when performance was guaranteed? Clock Speed Front side bus The speed at which a microprocessor executes instructions. Two CPUS with the same clock speed perform equally, depending on their internal architecture. The digital pathway connecting the CPU to the motherboard. Higher bus speed means faster communication with the rest of the system. not necessarily intel. pentium The Original Intel Pentium 1993 w MMX" tech Clock Speed 60 MHz Front Side Bus 60-66 MHz AMD 5K86 SJADVANCED LIMICHO 1995 AMD-X6-133AOW Clock Speed Front Side Bus 50-66 MHz 25544 130-150 MHZ Pentium II 1996 Clock Speed Front Side Bus 66-100 MHz 233-450 MHz AMD K5 AMD-K5 1996 Clock Speed 75-133 MHz Front Side Bus 50-66 MHz AMD K6 AMDA AMD K6" 1997 Incorporated MMX instruction set for better multimedia performance Clock Speed 166-300 MHZ Front Side Bus 66-100 MHz AMD K6-2 1998 Clock Speed 266-550 MHz Front Side Bus 66-100 MHz Pentium II Xeon 1998 Clock Speed Front Side Bus 450 MHz 100 MHz AMD Athlon "CLASSIC" K7 1999 Clock Speed Front Side Bus 100 MHz double pumped 500-700 MHz AMD Athlon "THUNDERBIRD" AMDA 2000 Pipelined FPU Clock Speed 600-1,400 MHz Front Side Bus 100-133 MHz double pumped Pentium 4 2000 Clock Speed 1.3 GHz Front Side Bus 400 MT/s • 2004 The Pentium 4 single core lasted until 2006 Intel Pentium 4 32-bit x86 microprocessors were extended by the 64-bit x86-64 set Clock Speed Front Side Bus 800 MT/s 3.6 GHz THE LAUNCH OF X86 SERVER VIRTUALIZATION BY: VMware with VMware GSX Server VMware ESX Server 2001 hosted hostless This launch kicked off the age of virtualization – which later included Micosoft, Citrix and other hardware virtualization platforms. Growth in physical server consolidation/virtualization had a profound affect on IT delivery. With 62% of firms having virtualization in place by the end of 2006.
