Hardware Architecture
Conventional Front-End Server runs Unix/Windows to allow compatibility with existing programs and applications
Conveyor Belt Back-End Server provides high-speed, power efficient and secure data processing.
Software Architecture
Most processors spend upto 90% of the time processing less than 20% of a program or application
What this means is that a significant amount of the workload is confined to 20% of the code
By moving the 20% of the code over to a conveyor belt architecture, large improvements in processing speed, increased security, reduced thermal dissipation and a reduction in power are achievable.
Performance
DPS-C8080A is designed for speed improvement, power reduction and increased reliability compare to conventional server blade solutions in the market.
