ARM Announces N2 Neoverse Computing Cores for Data Centres

development programming
Recently, ARM announced details surrounding its next-generation processors aimed at the data centre and edge computing market. What challenges do data centres and edge devices face, what details have been released around the N2 architecture, and could RISC be the dominant CPU technology? What challenges do data centres and edge devices face? While the power and technology used in computing technology have undergone major changes, the development of large computers that take up entire rooms still exists today. Of course, modern computers are many orders of magnitude faster than the computers of the past. Still, the idea of using a dedicated facility to process large amounts of data has been around since the first computers. Modern data centres power the technological world as we know it; they enable the internet to function by hosting websites and...

Arm CCA Confidential Computing: Arm Builds Data Center Secure Enclaves

arm hq cambridge
Arm chips for mobile and IoT devices have supported secure enclaves – a concept known as confidential computing – for years. It’s called the Arm TrustZone trusted execution environment, and it’s been available for mobile devices since 2004 and in its M-Class IoT since 2014. The chip designer is now bringing confidential computing to its data center-class chip designs. The Armv9 architecture, launched in March, features Arm CCA (Confidential Compute Architecture). Related: Arm’s New Neoverse V1, N2 Chips Take on Intel in the Data Center MarketSince Arm, based in Cambridge, UK, licenses its designs out to various chipmakers, the release will help democratize confidential computing in data centers, Mark Knight, director of architecture products at Arm, said. Server-chip giants Intel, AMD, and IBM each have their own secure enclave...
