Opensource.com Article: Open Standards In Processor Innovation With RISC-V

Martin Fink of Western Digital discusses how as big data and fast data applications create more extreme workloads, purpose-built architectures must pick up where today’s architectures have reached their limit.
The role of data has changed. Data is more than a record; it is a form of communication. Data enhances lives. It makes us more efficient in navigation, banking, shopping, and managing our day-to-day lives. Ultimately, the exchange, valuation, and intelligence of data are currency. Beyond storing it, data must be captured, preserved, accessed, and transformed to take advantage of its possibilities.
