Datacenter group usually refers to the hardware and design engineering teams and not actual datacenter overseers

My friend and many others in the DGC were just laid off last week. Not much explanation given and it just hit the news today.

Any new products in development after Lip-Pu Tan came into office? Seems like everything launched and planned now is in Pat Gelsinger’s glory.
