| Description | Intel’s x86 architecture is inside everything from PCs to laptops to servers. The world’s largest chipmaker spends big on designing better CPUs and faster interconnects. |
| GigaOM’s Take | While the need for power efficiency is forcing Intel to react with more energy-efficient chips and chips primed to handle smaller workloads, the chip behemoth is still the top vendor selling and influencing the brains inside the data centers that comprise the cloud. |
