Intel® has officially launched the fifth generation of its powerful Xeon® processors, marking a significant milestone in performance and power efficiency for advanced technology systems. These innovative processors are designed to power artificial intelligence (AI), high performance computing (HPC), databases, networking and storage, providing users with unprecedented performance gains and improved efficiency.
Workload Optimized Performance:The fifth generation Intel® Xeon® processors excel at rapidly scaling systems and taking advantage of new opportunities. Compatible with the platform and software of previous generations, it facilitates a smooth transition, allowing users to minimize testing and validation when deploying new systems and instances. Upgrading legacy servers with these processors delivers significant efficiency gains, enabling advanced use cases that drive competitive advantage.
Leaders in AI: 5ᵃ Generation Intel® Xeon® processors are designed specifically for AI, delivering AI acceleration on every core. Capable of handling demanding AI workloads such as deep learning inference and model fine-tuning with up to 20 billion parameters, these processors deliver unmatched AI performance compared to the previous generation.
Energy Efficiency and Sustainability: The fifth generation of Xeon® processors sets a new standard in sustainability, with integrated accelerators that improve performance per watt. In addition, the inclusion of Power Optimized Mode in the platform’s BIOS offers higher levels of efficiency and power savings for workloads that can benefit, contributing to reduced operating costs and sustainability goals.
Advanced Data Security: Intel® Trust Domain Extensions (Intel® TDX) provides enhanced confidentiality at the virtual machine level, improving privacy and control over data. The most researched, up-to-date and comprehensive confidential computing technology in today’s data centers, Intel® Software Guard Extensions (Intel® SGX), ensures robust protection of sensitive data.
Improved Overall Performance: With 84% better overall computing performance than 3ᵃ Generation Intel® Xeon® processors, these fifth-generation processors lead the industry in terms of performance per core. In addition, they deliver up to 14 times better AI and inference training performance compared to the previous generation, and up to 10 times better average performance efficiency per watt when using Intel® Accelerator Engines.
Platform Highlights:
- DDR5 Memory: Delivers up to 66% improvement in bandwidth compared to DDR4, improving performance, capacity and power efficiency.
- PCIe 5.0: Up to 80 lanes for new I/O speeds, ideal for fast networking, high-bandwidth accelerators and high-performance storage devices.
- Compute Express Link (CXL 1.1): Reduces compute latency and total cost of ownership with CXL types 1, 2 and 3 for next-generation workloads.
