The company later moved its marketing center to Beijing, the IT industry hub of China, and expanded its operations to the national level. In 2005 it was reported that Microsoft had invested 20 million US$ in the company. On 18 April 2006, the company switched its name from "Langchao" to "Inspur" in hopes it would increase its sales from overseas markets by as much as thirty percent by 2010. Inspur announced several agreements with virtualization software developer VMware on research and development of cloud computing technologies and related products. In August 2009, Inspur acquired the Xi'an-based research and development facilities of Qimonda AG for 30 million Chinese yuan (around US$4 million). The centre had been responsible for design and development of Qimonda's DRAM products.〔 In November 2011, Shandong Inspur Software Co., Ltd., Inspur Electronic Information Co., Ltd. and Inspur (Shandong) Electronic Information Company, established a cloud computing joint venture, with each holding a 33.3% stake. Inspur participated in the production of printed circuit boards and the installation and testing of the Chinese Tianhe-2 Supercomputer, revealed in June 2013 as the most powerful supercomputer in the world. Arriving several years ahead of schedule, and with 32,000 Xeon processors alongside 48,000 Xeon Phi accelerator processors, the Tianhe-2 supercomputer can manage a quadrillion mathematical calculations per second (33.85 petaflops), double that of the previous leader and closer rival, the Titan supercomputer located at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA.〔http://www.netlib.org/utk/people/JackDongarra/PAPERS/tianhe-2-dongarra-report.pdf〕〔http://www.top500.org/lists/2013/06/〕 In July 2014, it was reported that due to security concerns, several Chinese industries would consider using Inspur's Tiansuo K1 as their preferred model of server. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Inspur」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
