Chip Shot: Cloud Computing is Top of Mind at Interop

During a keynote today at Interop in Las Vegas, Intel Vice President Kirk Skaugen discussed Intel’s “Cloud 2015” vision, and also addressed the impact that the recently announced 22nm 3-D Tri-Gate Transistor technology will have on the compute continuum of cloud devices – from smartphones to datacenters. During an educational session at Interop, Iddo Kadim, Intel’s director of data center virtualization technologies, showed a video featuring experts from public cloud provider Terremark, as well as from Hytrust, RSA and Cisco discussing how Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT) provides hardware-based defense against security breaches within the cloud.
