Would MicroTCA survive? 09/01/2010
MicroTCA proved to be a very challenging technology for us to do an open source. The advancement in processor (Atom servers anyone?) coupling with high cost for MicroTCA-based products could spell a death for a once promising technology. When I was still in the industry, I have pointed out to MicroTCA vendors that a $4K Pentium M blade is out of the question. Several years later, the price has not come down. It's hard for me to see how the technology could survive. Fortunately in the past few months, we have shifted our focus to something more exciting. More to come in the near future.
