Luckily my old rack is too old to have ME. But are there alternatives out there when these old power-edge warriors finally die or do I have to start building a beowolf out of raspberry pis?
- swiley 9y agoAh yes, broadcom, the poster child of openness.
- wmf 9y agoThis has nothing to do with servers.

- milcron 9y agoThere is OpenPOWER, or ARM. Unfortunately all new Intel chips have the Management Engine, and all new AMD chips have the equivalent Platform Security Processor.
- mikehollinger 9y agoIf you want to inspect the OpenPOWER firmware[1] or OpenBMC[2] - check out github for either project.
