About This Website
This website runs on experimental ARM based servers based around the Marvell MV78100 SoC.
Each server blade has:
- a single MV78100
- 1 x 2.5inch 7400rpm SATA HDD
- 1.5GBytes of DDR 2 RAM
7 of the these server blades are mounted into a custom built single rack with one 240VAC to 12VDC PSU to power all seven blades.
There is no forced cooling in the system.
The site runs an
nginx web proxy / load balancer and
apache, with
mod_perl.
The OS is the ARM port of
Debian Lenny.
The board is monitored by an ARM mbed prototype energy monitoring and control board. The counter in the footer of the site makes a
crude estimate of the energy consumed while rendering each page.
Many thanks to Marvell for providing the boards on which the site is built.For more information contact
