IBM has announced plans to demonstrate their new OpenPower 710 at the Southern California Linux Expo. The OpenPower 710 is the newest member of their OpenPower server line. The Southern California Linux Expo, will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center on February 12-13. This will be IBM's third year the participating in the conference. IBM's demonstration will take place at booth #38.
The OpenPower 710 is based on IBM's 64-bit POWER 5 processor and is capable of up to 32GB of memory and 587.2GB of internal storage. IBM OpenServers are tuned for top performance with Linux. The Linux kernel leverages POWER5 features like simultaneous multi-threading and takes advantage of the inherent high-performance characteristics like improved memory access, instruction/data cache coherency, synchronization and faster data lock acquisitions. Further information on the OpenPower 710 can be found at:

In addition to the OpenPower 710 IBM will demonstrate their eServer i5/520 line of systems. The i5/520 is the perfect consolidation platform as it can run Power Linux, Intel Linux, AIX, i5/OS (OS/400), and Windows all simultaneously.
