Software giant working with Taiwanese laptop makers on server hardware for cloud computing environments. Microsoft is working with the world’s two largest laptop manufacturers in the world, Taiwan’s Quanta Computing and Compal Electronics. This move is to develop server hardware for use in scalable cloud computing environments.
Microsoft revealed at this week’s Computex conference in Taipei that it will share patents with the hardware makers, both of which build devices for most well known laptop brands.
The initiative reveals the intention of Taiwan’s high tech manufacturing industry to exploit the rise of cloud computing. “Cloud computing services are a strategic industry that the government is promoting,” said the ministry’s director general Wu Ming-ji at Computex.
