Today ARM server vendor Ampere introduced a new developer platform and program to facilitate the open development of next-generation cloud applications. Available through Lenovo, the new server platform with Ampere’s eMAG processors is available now for purchase and developers can order by visiting Ampere’s new developer web site.

The Ampere developer program provides openness and is a place to find tools, documentation and developer collaboration that will drive adoption of our products,” said Mauri Whalen, vice president of software engineering at Ampere. “We are already working with communities such as Packet, WorksOnArm, OpenJDK and participating in open projects like the Linux Kernel, gcc/llvm, OpenBMC and other cloud technologies to ensure compatibility with our eMAG platform. By providing access to a development environment with open standards and full open documentation, we can expand the ecosystem and optimize the developer experience to innovate on cloud applications not yet imagined.”

The new developer program includes the following tools and resources:

  • Forums
  • Documentation
    • Ampere eMAG Technical Readiness Manual
    • Ampere Linux Kernel Optimization Guide

Ampere’s eMAG Arm processors are building the foundation of the new cloud frontier. eMAG processors are purpose-built for large-scale public and private cloud environments, delivering advantages through high-performance cores, high-speed connectivity, high memory throughput and carrier-grade reliability. Ampere’s eMAG products are shipping now to customers.
