Despite rumors of its impending demise, Intel's Itanium received a US$10 billion new lease on life on January 26 in the US, according to several US-based media reports. This means the Itanium server processors might last till 2010.
In an ISA January 26 press release, the organization did not specify the US$10 billion amount, but it mentioned that Bull, Fujitsu, Fujitsu Siemens, Hitachi, HP, Intel, NEC, SGI and Unisys announced their investment in Itanium solutions at the event, coincidentally these are all the founding members of the ISA. It also stressed the momentum that Itanium has gained with the claim that 70 of the Fortune 100 corporations are now utilizing or planning Itanium solution deployments and Itanium solutions are gaining market segment share from IBM Power and Sun Sparc solutions, with leading technology users making strategic investments in open, industry-standard Itanium solutions over proprietary alternatives. A year ago, this number was just 40, according to an Intel director of enterprise platform marketing quoted by InformationWeek.
