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. For more information, google "openpower minicloud" (I would include a link but our wiki software is too paranoid apparently. that's cool.)

Hardware

You can buy POWER8 hardware from IBM or other vendors, the IBM S812LC server is reasonably price competitive to similar x86 servers and fully supported by the ppc64le port.
