| | IBM Preps Next-Generation EXA Chipset |
 | | IBM, of Armonk, N.Y., is planning to roll out servers featuring the third generation of its EXA (Enterprise X Architecture) chipsets in early 2005, after Intel's release of the Xeon MP processor, code-named Potomac, set for later this year. |
 | | In the first two generations of EXA, those features included high-scalability and performance capabilities, as well as the means to work around failed memory and diagnose problems without having to bring the system down. |
 | | EXA 3 will be designed to run high-end applications such as database, business intelligence and customer relationship management software, he said. |
