To refine the server, storage and networking infrastructure found in data centers, Intel Corporation has introduced the Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 product family (code named “Ivy Bridge-EP). These processors will enable the rapid delivery of services for high- performance computing, Cloud and enterprise segments, and offer compelling new opportunities for telecommunications vendors.
The new Xeon product family is based on Intel’s leading 22-nanometer process technology, contributing to dramatic energy efficiency improvements of up to 45 per cent when compared to the previous generation. The processor family also features up to 12 cores and delivers up to 50 per cent more performance across variety of compute intensive workloads.
More than ever, organizations are looking to information technology to transform their businesses. Offering new Cloud-based services requires an infrastructure that is versatile enough to support the diverse workloads, and is flexible enough to respond to changes in resource demand across servers, storage and network, said Diane Bryant, Sr. VP & GM of the Datacenter and Connected Systems Group, Intel.
The new Intel Xeon processors provide a common, software compatible processing foundation and possess the features and tools to help transform data centers for the future.
The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family is also designed to power cost-efficient scale-out, distributed, and software defined storage.
The Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family will be offered with 18 different parts which range in price from $202 to $2,614 in quantities of 1,000. Additionally, three single-socket Intel Xeon processor E5-1600 parts will be offered for workstations which range in price from $294 to $1,080.
