AlphaVM - The cost-effective Alpha emulator
AlphaVM is a software product which emulates your Alpha hardware on an Intel platform.
AlphaVM emulation provides the functionality of an Alpha CPU but running on an Intel processor. AlphaVM can be hosted on either Windows or Linux and will run OpenVMS or Tru64 Unix.
Alpha hardware emulation provides many advantages in terms of stability, performance and cost.
OpenVMS or Tru64 Unix, all layered products and your applications will run unmodified on AlphaVM once emulated.
AlphaVM processing is transparent to DECnet and TCPIP network protocols. The AlphaVM emulator can be accessed on your network or cluster in exactly the same way as the ‘real’ Alpha.
AlphaVM utilises JIT (Just-In-Time) compilation technology to ensure extremely fast translation of Alpha code to native code.
The emulator is binary-compatible with Alpha hardware and will enable you to transparently move your Alpha applications away from a dependence on legacy Alpha hardware.
Using AlphaVM to emulate your Alpha environment will extend the lifetime of your OpenVMS or Tru64 Unix applications by removing the underlying legacy hardware platform.
