OLTP on a server-grade ARM
Utku Şirin, Raja Appuswamy, Anastasia Ailamaki · 2016
Although scaling out of low-power cores is an alternative to power-hungry Intel Xeon processors for reducing the power overheads, they have proven inadequate for complex, non-parallelizable workloads. On the other hand, by the introduction of the 64-bit ARMv8 architecture, traditionally low power ARM processors have become powerful enough to run computationally intensive server-class applications.
