Compaq to endorse Monterey

Later on today, Compaq will announce that it has endorsed Project Monterey's high volume shrink Unix for IA-64.

At the same time, Compaq is expected to say that it will provide IBM middleware on its Unix systems.

The move could be seen as something of a climbdown for Compaq with Tru64. Compaq will offer Big Blue middleware on all of its Unix offerings.

Further Project Monterey announcements from SCO, IBM and Sequent are expected this afternoon, UK time. ®

IBM, SCO and Sequent bullish about Monterey

IBM, in conjunction with its Project Monterey partners SCO and Sequent said that the first initial tests of Monterey for IA-64 have been concluded successfully.

In a separate development, Compaq also joined in the project (see story Compaq to endorse Monterey).

IBM is licensing AIX technology to SCO to include in UnixWare.

But although the partners may be happy with Monterey to date, final 64-bit code will not see the light of day until early in 2001.

Meanwhile, a senior IBM executive said that engineers at the company have now resolved endian problems.

Said Tikiri Wanduragala, an IBM EMEA executive: "We have 70 IBM programmers on the Monterey team. The biggest project they had was to size the coe. They've fixed the Endian problem. They've figured out how to make an Endian neutral model." ®
