Not many are.  They&#8217;re also called ARM Servers or ARM-based Servers.  I stumbled across them simply because I was looking for a differentiator in the delivery of Big Data and I&#8217;m in Austin, home to an innovator in this field &#8211; Calxeda.<br \/>\nBy &#8220;microserver,&#8221; I am NOT referring to products like the HP ProLiant MicroServer or the HP Moonshoot chassis, which are a technology comb-overs (i.e., Intel-based PCs).   They are not microservers at all.
