Pictures of Facebook's ARM Miracle Servers!

Fri Apr 20, 2018 12:51 pm

Yeah... just kidding.

This is the real world, Facebook runs its operations using Xeon-Ds, including the new 18 core Skylake Xeon models you can see here. That's 4 self-contained server cartridges in each of those server sleds.

When Zuckerberg absolutely, positively, needs to spy on you, he accepts no substitutes.

Are you capable of getting a joke?

Didn't think so.

But tell you what, if Apple's 2020 miracle chip makes a better microserver than a Xeon D, I'll buy you one.

It was a practical joke that went off flawlessly.

Cegras clicked the link thinking he was going to make yet another disingenuous snarky post... and then got burned and couldn't come up with anything worthwhile.
