Intel today announced the addition of new performance and performance-per-dollar-optimized processors to the Intel\u00ae Xeon\u00ae Scalable platform, the industry\u2019s most widely deployed server platform with more than 30 million units sold. The addition of these new processors targets the majority of Intel\u2019s mainstream Xeon Scalable customers across cloud, network and edge.\u202fWith broad availability starting today from leading OxMs, these new 2nd Gen\u00a0Intel Xeon Scalable\u00a0processors\u00a0reinforce Intel\u2019s data center leadership by providing\u00a0greater performance and performance-per-dollar choices for\u00a0customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cIntel\u2019s data-centric platforms offer the broadest market coverage of any server processor platform -\u2013 from the cloud, through the network, to the intelligent edge,” said Lisa Spelman, corporate vice president and general manager of the Xeon and Memory Group within Intel\u2019s Data Platform Group. “Working closely with our customers, we are delivering these new server processors to address their performance and pricing needs across a broad range of markets and workloads.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Gold processors deliver an average of 1.36-times higher performance1<\/sup>\u00a0and 1.42-times better performance-per-dollar1<\/sup> compared with the 1st\u00a0Gen Intel Xeon Gold processors.<\/p>\n

To deliver this level of performance and value, Intel has optimized these new server processors in several areas, including adding more cores, increasing cache sizes or by boosting processor frequency. The new processors — labeled with an \u201cR,\u201d \u201cT\u201d or \u201cU\u201d suffix — are designed for dual- and single-socket mainstream and entry-level server systems. The addition of more cores and increased cache in these processors are targeted at workloads where capacity-per-server is critical, such as virtualized clouds, hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) and network function virtualization (NFV).<\/p>\n

Intel also announced today two new processors\u00a0(Intel Xeon Gold 6256 and 6250)\u00a0that\u00a0feature\u00a0the industry\u2019s highest server processor frequency,\u00a0delivering\u00a0a base and turbo frequency up to 3.9 GHz and 4.5 GHz, respectively. These high-frequency processors are optimized for workloads that scale with clock frequency, such as financial trading, simulation and modeling, high-performance computing, and databases.<\/p>\n
