It is.
PPC64 is big endian, PPC64LE is little endian.
POWER8/9 are Bi-Endian so you can use both (most linux distros only
support little)
PPC64 compile covers PowerPC and POWER.
TALOS 2 is an end user obtainable derivative of the Romulus POWER 9
development board, there are a variety of modifications and it is more
open source than Romulus - you can also pay for it with bitcoin.
It supports dual sforza CPU's which have up to 24 cores per socket with
SMT4 (4 threads at the same time per core)
