Intel is saying it has made an important advancement in the use of silicon-based components which help in transmitting computer data at much faster rate and above all in cheaper way.
The particular advancement was made in area known as silicon photonics, which uses standard, inexpensive silicon to send and revive information within several computer servers in a data center and other electronic.
This is something we’ve been talking more and more about. All the discussion around virtualization, automation and cloud computing is not just hype for the sake of hype – what’s the latest hottest thing in the market. Instead virtualization and automation technologies and tools are component technologies for cloud computing. These technologies will help IT [...]
