Intel Xeon processor E7 family

Intel, the world leader in computing innovation yesterday announced the launch of Intel Xeon processor E7 family




Enabling IT departments to better manage data-intensive environments through new security and reliability features and record-breaking performance, a new family of server processors that accelerate mission-critical computing have been announced by Intel, a company statement said here.

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, the release said.


IT managers seeking to achieve greater economic efficiencies can replace 18 dual-core servers with a single Xeon processor E7-based server.


"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," Intel Corporation's Senior Vice President and General Manager of Sales & Marketing Group, Tom Kilroy said.
