- SteveNuts 7y agoCurious what type of workload you are using them for? We're a VMware shop so I'd be hesitant to deploy non-Intel just because I don't want to get caught holding the bag in case AMD can't keep their momentum up for the next 5 years when we'd most likely looking to lifecycle the environment.
- rgrs 7y agoWhat kind of workload do you run that relies on hardware? I mean you mention, you use VMware anyway.
- SteveNuts 7y agoManufacturing is weird like that. We like VMware because we can refresh our compute and storage without downtime, since a lot (almost al) of the applications are not built for HA.
