Intel and AMD, the two main processor manufacturing companies competing for global market share, are collaborating on a project to form the x86 group. Other companies, including Broadcom, Dell Technologies, Google Cloud, HPE, HP Inc., Lenovo, Microsoft, Oracle, and Red Hat, have also joined forces to form the x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group.
Why do Intel and AMD Collaborate?
Intel and AMD have collaborated to form an x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group to counter the rising popularity of the ARM architecture. The advisory group aims to protect the x86 architecture and unite hardware and software vendors. The goal of the group is to ensure the seamless integration of operating systems, frameworks, and applications across Intel and AMD-based systems.
We’ve witnessed the increasing popularity of the ARM architecture, with the advent of powerful processors like the Snapdragon X Elite, even preferred by Windows. To combat this trend, Intel and AMD, along with other companies, have formed this advisory group.
