H-P (HPQ -0.9%) unveils its first Moonshot system, the fruits of a much-hyped effort to develop the kind of densely-packed, low-power systems many Web/cloud service providers have embraced. The first Moonshot server uses Intel's (INTC) S1200 (Centerton) Atom CPU. 45 of them fit into a small enclosure containing shared power/networking/storage components, and H-P claims 1,800 servers can fit into a rack. AMD and ARM-based (ARMH) servers will arrive later. The likes of Google, Facebook, and Amazon probably won't adopt Moonshot, but some enterprises and service providers hoping to emulate those firms might.
