Re: Interesting read on "statement of direction" on announcement on even more Power 7 hardware withdrawals

If you look at the list of cards, all the PCIe and PCIe2 cards are on that
list, most of not all anyway.

A fair number of PCie3 cards are on that list too.

The clue phone is ringing.........

Statement of direction
Cognitive, HPC, and high-performance data analytics workloads are driving
an
ever-growing set of data-intensive challenges that can be met with
accelerated infrastructure. To help meet these demands, IBM Cognitive
Systems intends to announce a next-generation AI, HPC, and high-performance
data analytics server leveraging IBM's next-generation POWERR processor
with
embedded next-generation NVLink between the processor and the NVIDIA Tesla
V100 with NVLink GPU. This integrated architecture is planned to enable
differentiated acceleration for data and compute-intensive workloads that
leverage high data throughput enabled by fast data transfer between CPU and
GPU to supplement NVLink bandwidth between GPUs.
