Fujitsu is reportedly working on a successor to its A64FX processor, which may be available in 2027 at the earliest. The new chip, codenamed Monaka, will have a more general design and offer energy efficiency advantages compared to rival CPUs available at launch. However, it remains uncertain whether these predictions will be realized given how far away the release date is. The development of Monaka is part of a program by the NEDO research agency that aims to achieve energy savings in data centers by 2030.
Development of Fujitsu’s New Processor
Fujitsu has been developing processors for years now with its most notable achievement being their A64FX processor that took Japan right up top as one of the world’s leading supercomputer developers back in June 2018. Nevertheless, this breakthrough was not considered weak but had bottlenecks specifically related to memory capacity limitations restricting target segments.
Accordingly; recent reports from industry insiders suggest Fujitsu might finally unveil their newest creation – dubbed ‘Monaka’- sometime around or before 2027 according to early predictions based on what little information there currently exists about this project which seems shrouded mystery for now despite some revealing hints here and there such as retaining ARM architecture while aiming towards more general usage beyond High-Performance Computing(HPC) market alone through offering significant improvement over competitors’ chips when it comes down low power consumption even though no details yet exist regarding ISA version chosen by Fujistu team behind ‘Monaka’.
In addition,it could very possibly deliver an impressive speed advantage along with double-efficiency gains so long-term prospects seem good albeit still rather speculative since official specs are unknown due primarily because they won’t arrive until several years later than expected meaning all we can do right now speculate wildly about what awaits us once Mokana arrives somewhere near end decade hopefully bringing better performance levels coupled reduced carbon footprint achieved via NEDO(National Energy & Industrial Technology Development Organization)’s initiative aimed reducing electricity consumption within data centers across country hoping attain minimum ratio saving upto40%by year2030
