Let’s get wild POWER8 Technology: Jørgen Johansen IBM Certified Solutions Expert Power Systems IBM Certified Technical Specialist Storage Solutions SAP Certified Technology Consultant jjo@mgd.dk

Power Processor Technology Roadmap We’ve put our roadmap out there and we hit it. This is huge. As we mentioned, Oracle has had three systems in three years and no migration path with Exadata. You can’t get from v1 to v2. With Power you could migrate easily. POWER7/7+ 45/32 nm POWER6/6+ 65/65 nm POWER5/5+ 130/90 nm 2004 2007 2010 2014 © 2014 International Business Machines Corporation 2
