  Introduction & Key Features

The global transformation is rapidly scaling the demands for flexible computer, networking, and storage. Future workloads will necessitate infrastructures that can seamlessly scale to support immediate responsiveness and widely diverse performance requirements. The exponential growth of data generation and consumption, the rapid expansion of cloud-scale computing and 5G networks, and the convergence of high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) into new usages requires that today’s data centers and networks evolve now— or be left behind in a highly competitive environment.

7starlake GPU System Roadmap

 

Intel® Xeon® D-2100 Processor

The Intel® Xeon® D-2100 processor provides an intelligent, highly reliable foundation for large-capacity warm storage solutions in cloud environments. Powerful reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features support error-correcting code (ECC) as well as memory and platform-level error management and resilience. Because the processors have built-in hardware virtualization technology and lower-power versions ranging from around 60 to 110 watts, cloud service providers can pack more storage and performance into each rack, improving performance and availability within the same footprint and reducing total cost of ownership. Intel® SSD Data Center Family for NVMe* delivers fully featured line of solid-state drives to accelerate changes in cloud storage infrastructure and compliment the Intel® Xeon® D-2100 platform.
