This page is used to describe the ppc64le port.
Testing (for developers)
The hosting sponsor for the ppc64le port operate a miniCloud service which will provide Alpine ppc64le images for testing.
View their website at http://openpower.ic.unicamp.br/minicloud/ for more info.
Hardware
You can buy POWER8 hardware from IBM or other vendors, for example the IBM S812LC server is reasonably price competitive to similar x86 servers and fully supported by the ppc64le port.
These are the IBM machines model that would support Alpine Linux:
- IBM Power System S821LC [1]
- IBM Power System S822LC for Big Data [2]
- IBM Power System S822LC for Commercial Computing [3]
- IBM Power System S822LC for High Performance Computing [IBM Power System S822LC for High Performance Computing]
- IBM Power System S812L and S822L [4]
- IBM Power System S824L [5]
- IBM Power System S812 [6]
- IBM Power System S822 [7]
- IBM Power System S814 [8]
- IBM Power System S824 [9]
- IBM Power Enterprise Systems for the cloud [10]
- IBM Power System E850C [11]
- IBM Power System E850 [12]
- IBM Power System E870 [13]
- IBM Power System E880 [14]
Tyan also has machines:
- Tyan TN76-BP016
- Tyan GT75-BP012
- Tyan TN71-BP012
