Startup Calxeda has a big idea: use cell phone chips (and the ARM architecture) to create low-power servers. Reducing energy consumption is something data center operators and Internet companies are increasingly paying attention to as a way to lower costs and Calxeda (basically a chip company) will be rolling out its product in 2012. While other companies are using various low power technologies — from software to other low power chips — to reduce the energy consumption of servers, Calxeda thinks ARM is the way to go. What do you think? Check out my video interview with Calxeda’s VP Marketing Karl Freund:
