New Intel Xeon processors for mission-critical computing

Intel has announced a new family of server processors that accelerate mission-critical computing. The record-setting Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families build on Intel's previous generation of server processors to set a new standard for high-end computing applications, including business intelligence, real-time data analytics and virtualization. Strengthening the line of defence for data centers, the new processors also provide advanced security features that ensure greater data integrity.

"Intel has been changing the economics for mission-critical computing server deployments for more than a decade, and today we are raising the bar yet again," said Tom Kilroy, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Sales & Marketing Group, Intel Corporation. "The new Intel Xeon processor E7 family delivers record breaking performance with powerful new security, reliability and energy efficiency enhancements. The industry momentum we are seeing for this new server processor architecture is unparalleled in Intel's history. The days of IT organizations being forced to deploy expensive, closed RISC architectures for mission-critical applications are rapidly nearing an end."

"This product demanded a significant amount of innovation and cross-geo teamwork, and the team in India has once again proven its exceptional engineering capability and showed us its focus on execution and innovation. I am happy to be here in India to share the spirit and sense of accomplishment with the team," said R. Sivakumar, Managing Director, Sales & Marketing Group, Intel South Asia, applauding the India design team on its efforts.

Based on Intel’s leading 32-nanometer (nm) process technology, the new Intel Xeon processors have up to 10 cores with Intel Hyper-Threading Technology and deliver up to 40-per cent greater performance than the Intel Xeon 7500 series processor. Concurrently, a new energy-saving feature reduces the power draw of idle portions of the chip. More than 35 systems based on the Intel Xeon processor E7 family are expected to ship from manufacturers around the world.
