Under the codename Cascade Lake, Intel® has released the 2nd generation of the scalable Intel® Xeon® processor series. With the Intel® C620 series chipsets, this series has the integrated Intel® Deep Learning Boost technology and thus offers high-performance inference and computer vision processing for AI applications.
Whether huge amounts of data or real-time requirements, this processor series handles these various IoT workloads. With CPU-optimised software toolkits and frameworks such as the Intel® distribution of the OpenVINO™ toolkit, you benefit from even better integrated deep learning capabilities, accelerating deployment and lowering total cost of ownership (TCO).
Other special features include:
Acceleration
Intel® Deep Learning Boost accelerates AI/Deep Learning/Computer Vision applications with up to 14x inference throughput over previous generation processors.
Memory
With new Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory technology, you can use cost-effective, non-volatile, large memory for faster processing and insight.
Data compression
Integrated Intel® QuickAssist Technology (Intel® QAT) accelerates data compression and encryption, reducing the load on the system processor. In addition, the transport and protection of data in the server, to and from the data storage, in the network and during VM migration is improved.
Control
Using Intel® Resource Director technology, Quality of Service (QoS) is significantly improved with Memory Bandwidth Allocation (regulating memory bandwidth when communicating between processor cores).
Security
Hardware measures to reduce side-channel exploits help protect systems and data by securing the platform against attacks.
Availability
Product availability of 15 years and 10 years of use case reliability protect your investment.
