NUMA Earns Health-Care Client

摘要

Baptist Health, a $300 million health network, will turn over operating-room scheduling for patients and staff to four of EMC Corp.'s Data General Aviion AV 25000 NUMA servers, each running four 550-MHz Intel Pentium Xeon processors. The Montgomery, Ala., network of hospitals, care centers, and nursing homes says it chose Non-Uniform Memory Access technology because the highly scalable, symmetric multiprocessing architecture will let it move ahead with plans to consolidate as many operations as possible onto a single platform.
