<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure> Qualcomm<\/a> Inc has no plans to abandon its efforts to create processors for data centres, the company's president, who oversees the chip division, said.

Qualcomm, the largest maker of chips in mobile phones, last year launched chips that use technology from
Softbank<\/a> Group Corp's ARM Holdings<\/a> to power the workhorse computer servers behind cloud-based services such as social networks.
Qualcomm's push to enter the data centre market puts it in direct competition with
Intel<\/a> Corp , which dominates data centres and now draws half of its revenue from servers and other \"data centric\" chips.

But in May, Bloomberg reported that Qualcomm was exploring whether to sell or shut down the server chip unit.

Qualcomm President Cristiano Amon told Reuters on Monday that the chipmaker is making staff reductions in the unit but intends to keep operating it, albeit with a narrower focus on large internet companies in the United States and China.

\"We are not looking at strategic options. We are not selling. We are still focused on it,\" Amon told Reuters.

San Diego-based Qualcomm declined to say whether it had considered selling the server chip unit at some point in the past. The company instead pointed to an April earnings call in which Chief Executive Officer Steve Mollenkopf said Qualcomm was considering cost-cutting options in areas that are not central to Qualcomm's business, which overwhelmingly comes from selling chips and licensing technology for mobile phones.

Amon told Reuters that the server chip business will be rolled into Qualcom's
Qualcomm CDMA Technologies<\/a> unit, which designs and sells mobile phone chips, to gain cost efficiencies.

Amon said the restructured server chip unit will focus on large
cloud computing<\/a> players. He would not name U.S. targets, but said the company is hoping to sell to Chinese internet giants such as Alibaba Group Holding Ltd , Tencent Holdings<\/a> Ltd and Baidu Inc through a joint venture in China.

Large internet companies tend to write much of their own internal software and can customise it for Qualcomm's chips. That means they will not struggle like smaller players to adapt off-the-shelf data centre software that is overwhelmingly written to run on Intel's so-called
x86<\/a> chips.

“我们不是看战略选择。我们不出售。我们仍然专注于它,”亚告诉路透。

高通公司不打算放弃努力,为数据中心创建处理器,该公司总裁,负责芯片部门说。

最大的芯片制造商高通手机,去年推出了使用技术的芯片软银集团公司的ARM Holdings权力背后的主力计算机服务器基于云的服务,比如社交网络。
高通的努力进入数据中心市场所说的直接竞争英特尔公司占数据中心,现在有一半的收入来自服务器和其他“数据中心”芯片。

但今年5月,彭博社报道,高通正在探索是否出售或关闭服务器芯片单元。

高通总统克里斯蒂亚周一对路透表示,芯片制造商正在裁员在单位但计划继续操作,虽然窄关注大型互联网公司在美国和中国。

“我们不是看战略选择。我们不出售。我们仍然专注于它,”亚告诉路透。

位于圣地亚哥的高通公司拒绝透露是否考虑过出售服务器芯片单元在过去。公司而不是指4月财报电话会议上,首席执行官史蒂夫Mollenkopf表示高通正在考虑削减成本的选择不是高通公司的商业中心地区,绝大多数来自出售芯片和许可技术的手机。

亚告诉路透,服务器芯片业务将进入Qualcom滚高通CDMA技术单元设计和销售手机芯片,获得成本效率。

亚表示,重组服务器芯片单元将专注于大云计算的球员。他不会叫美国目标,但表示,该公司希望卖给中国互联网巨头阿里巴巴集团(Alibaba Group Holding Ltd .)等,腾讯控股有限公司和百度(bidu . o:行情)在中国的合资企业。

大型互联网公司往往写他们自己的内部软件和高通的芯片可以定制它。斗争,意味着他们不会像小球员适应现成的数据中心软件绝大多数编写运行在英特尔的所谓x86芯片。

“很显然,手臂机会集中在几个球员,你没有软件x86门槛,“亚说。
