OpenPOWER drives industry innovation
The OpenPOWER Foundation creates an open ecosystem, using the POWER Architecture to share expertise, investment, and
server-class intellectual property to serve the evolving needs of customers.
Performance of leading POWER architecture Broadens the capability and performance of the POWER platform
Collaboration across multiple thought leadersCollaborative development model drives collective thought leadership, simultaneously across multiple disciplines
Open DevelopmentOpenPOWER enables greater innovation through both open software and open hardware

GPUs are like minions
The individual cores in a GPU are not very powerful

But gather loads together, and remarkable things can happen!

FPGAs are like Wolverine…
• Really good at doing one thing
• Only does one thing, just really fast
• Unlike Wolverine, can be reprogrammed to change what it does–This takes a particular set of skills,
which many of the OpenPOWER Foundation member have
• Can work alongside more general computational elements, and maybe other FPGAs–Like the X-Men!
