Intel has introduced its latest Xeon 6 processors, designed to meet the growing demands of modern data centers and colocation data centers. With advancements in performance and energy efficiency, these processors are set to enhance workloads such as artificial intelligence (AI), virtualization, and database management.
Expanded Performance with Xeon 6700/6500P Series
The new Xeon 6700/6500P series features performance cores (P-cores) that offer an average of 1.4 times better performance compared to previous generations. This enhanced performance is crucial for data centers managing enterprise workloads that require high-speed processing and reliability.
Intel has also introduced two product families within the Xeon 6 lineup: P-core chips focused on performance and efficient cores (E-cores) designed for balancing energy consumption with performance, ideal for both public and private clouds.
