Industrial server motherboard for 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors Aaeon has created a server motherboard for Intel’s 3rd generation Xeon Scalable Processors – codenamed Ice Lake-SP. The industrial ATX board is called ARES-WHI0. “This new generation of Xeon SP brings higher processing speeds and Intel’s deep learning boost technology, allowing for greater acceleration and more efficient processing for AI server applications,” according to Aaeon. “ARES-WHI0 takes advantage of t...

With the launch of Intel’s Third Generation Xeon Scalable platform based on 10nm Ice Lake processors, Intel has upgraded a part of the company that makes the BIG money. For the last few years Intel has been pivoting from a CPU-centric company to a Data-centric company, leveraging the fact that more and more of its product lines are built towards the datacenter mindset. With the launch of the new server platform in this past week, Intel is gearing itself up for an enterprise stack built on 10n...

After Intel’s Ice Lake announcement, it’s time for Sapphire Rapids to come into the spotlight. A detailed leak about the upcoming data centre platform has just emerged, suggesting that Sapphire Rapids will be quite the upgrade compared to Ice Lake, with the upcoming Xeons set to feature 64GB of HBM2 memory. It’s worth noting that the image sent to VideoCardz doesn’t appear to be entirely recent, as it still lists Ice Lake as a 2020 product. However, the rest of the information does appe...

Intel Sets Ice Lake Apart From AMD EPYC With AI, Systems Approach The chipmaker launches its long-anticipated third-generation Xeon Scalable CPUs, which feature up to 40 cores and come with new acceleration capabilities for AI and cryptography as well as new security features. Intel says the new acceleration improvements make Ice Lake faster than AMD’s new third-generation EPYC chips across certain workloads for AI, cloud and high-performance computing. By Dyl...

A sideways look at the enterprise fall out from the musical chairs played by defecting VMware execs Read later Summary: First VMware’s COO resigned to take up the role of CEO at Nutanix, rapidly followed by a lawsuit for breach of contract and fiduciary duty; then the CEO left to join Intel as its new boss. The bigger questions in both cases are the same – what might be the eventual result? (Pixabay) Recent weeks have seen two ‘people’ stories emerge from VMware, both highlighting subt...

Intel believes Optane memory technology is a “disruptive, once-in-a-decade invention” that requires a system-level approach to enable performance gains and other benefits for data-intensive workloads. NAND SSD technology can’t deliver on the same level of performance and reliability but remains a large, important and economical part of the storage equation — albeit in the hands of a different owner. Those were two of the takeaways from Intel executives and architects speaking at the com...

Intel Makes Case For Optane’s Future As NAND Biz Splits Off ‘NAND needs greater scale to go after the world‘s insatiable appetite for more data, and Optane needs platform-connected solutions to focus on faster insights on that data,’ Intel’s Rob Crooke says, explaining the rationale for selling the NAND business and keeping the Optane memory technology. By Dylan Martin December 21, 2020, 10:05 AM EST Intel believes Optane memory technology is a “dis...

Intel held a Memory and Storage Moment 2020 yesterday and announced six new products; three SSDs, and three Optane memory devices. Most of the devices are for data centre and enterprise deployment but there is one new SSD and one new Optane memory device for consumers that are worth looking at more closely. Starting with the SSDs, they have all been updated to use Intels 144-layer TLC and QLC NAND chips. Intel wants to establish this memory as the choice for high-capacity drives for all its mai...
