Today technology is integral to delivering business value as organizations prioritize accelerating the delivery of new services, contain costs, and scale flexibly as well as fulfill ambitious sustainability and security goals. Now more than ever organizations require the scalable platform that meets their performance requirements into the foreseeable future across their evolving use cases and diverse deployment needs.
To meet the topmost technology and business needs of organizations, Intel built 4th Gen Xeon Intel Scalable (code named Sapphire Rapids) processors to accelerate performance across the most demanding and quickest expanding workloads across strategically vital use cases such as AI, data analytics, high-performance computing (HPC), networking, and storage. Through the 4th Gen Xeon Intel Scalable portfolio debut, we see the new processors offering the most built-in accelerators throughout the current CPU competitive landscape.
In our latest white paper, Intel 4th Gen Xeon Scalable Processors Primed to Accelerate Data Center Performance and Capabilities, we assess why Intel’s 4th Gen Xeon Scalable processors and Intel’s strategic approach of embedding a diverse array of accelerators is key to enabling breakthroughs such as vast improvements in per-core performance. You’ll learn:
- The topmost differentiator for the 4th Gen Xeon Scalable processors is built-in accelerators.
- 4th Gen Intel Scalable processors use a new architecture with higher per-core performance.
- On Demand can be used to expand and upgrade accelerators and hardware-enhanced features across most 4th Gen Xeon processor SKUs including DLB, IAA, and QAT.
- Additional key considerations in evaluating 4th Gen Xeon include oneAPI flexibility, supply chain stability, comprehensive security, Gen AI readiness, x86 cloud credentials, and manufacturing revival.
We believe Intel is advocating that built-in acceleration capabilities can efficiently deliver improved performance in relation to increasing CPU core counts and complexity. Intel already has ecosystem-wide credibility by demonstrating that prior generation Xeon Scalable processors delivered breakthrough performance per watt across specific real-world workloads. As such, customers and users gain the organization-wide benefits of more efficient CPU use, decreased power consumption, and improved return on investment. In sum, through Intel built-in acceleration innovation across the Xeon Scalable processor portfolio, we see Intel is redefining the competitive landscape to make built-in acceleration capabilities and per-core performance the topmost selection criterion across data center and cloud environments.
