The World without …
Workloads from social media sites, search engines which are data intensive but not compute intensive continue to use x86 server CPUs designed for compute-intensive enterprise applications thus underutilizing compute capacity and wasting energy.
Administrators pay for the cost of a premium CPU although processor utilization levels is as low as 20% or even less
Administrators continue to use virtualization to address the low CPU utilization problem,
which does not adequately address the needs of scale-out applications and web serving
IT administrators continue to manage, power and cool sheer number of devices in hyper scale environment

The World with…
Workloads that are data intensive will use software defined servers with energy-efficient CPUs enabling optimal utilization of compute capacity at low energy
Compute cost will become proportional to CPU utilization
Extreme scale-out with optimal compute utilization will be enabled
Management of devices in hyper-scale environment will be simplified for IT
Administrators due to the federated architecture with shared components for power, cooling, and management
