Fujitsu begs to disagree: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/22/fujitsu_post_k_a64fx/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/22/fujitsu_post_k_a64f... Fujitsu had already built SuperSPARC-based supercomputers, and Oracle recently ported their Red Hat clone to AArch64 (no legacy 32-bit or Thumb) and produced an ISO for the PI-3.

I won't dispute SPARC (Fujitsu has done some impressive work on it), but the post was for ARM and RISC-V.

  The link I posted was Fujitsu's new ARM server, which bundles 32GB of RAM and over 30 cores on a single die. These are deployed in dual-socket blades attached to the "tofu" routing that they scavenged from their SPARC supercomputer. Fujitsu is saying that their ARM implementation is the fastest server processor available, ahead of Intel.
