Silent Data Errors Still Slipping Through The Cracks
By Laura Peters - 11 Feb, 2025 - Comments: 0

Silent data corruption errors in large server farms have become a major concern of cloud users, hyperscalers, processor manufacturers and the test community. Silent data errors (also called silent data corruption errors) are hardware errors that occur when an incorrect computational result from a processor core goes undetected by the system. The data is silently corrupted because neither sof... » read more
