Unisys and Intel join forces on secure computing platform
Unisys Corporation is partnering with Intel Corporation to bring to market a secure computing platform designed to handle the demanding requirements of mission-critical cloud and big data workloads, while offering Unix clients a cost-effective path off legacy RISC-based platforms onto an Intel-based environment.
The new platform, to be released later in 2013, will build on the unmatched security Unisys delivers in mission-critical computing. It will combine Unisys’ advanced secure partitioning (s-Par) technology with the computing and security features of Intel Xeon family processors, providing an extremely flexible and powerful environment.
The platform will support a range of Intel’s high-performance, availability and security innovations for the Xeon processor family. Unisys believes that the platform will be the first architecture based on Intel Xeon processors to bring enterprise-level security, availability, scalability and predictable performance to the three key IT challenges facing enterprises today:
