Envisioning the Utilization of Itanium's Power
Itanium processing power has already entered the market and is in its second generation (Itanium 2 processor) as you read this book. Yet its full impact will be some time in coming as successive processor iterations are released with better performance, and more independent software vendors port their applications to take advantage of Intel's Itanium processor. The impact from the architecture's ability to handle high volumes of data and computations faster and more reliably will be better workstations and servers, at lower cost to customers.
The following are a couple of examples of early users of the Itanium processors. These are early adopters of new technology who have big plans for their Itanium ...
