Intelligent and Expandable High-End Intel® Server Platform, Codenamed Nehalem-EX

As the world’s most widely deployed server, IT has grown to rely on Intel® Xeon® processors for their energy-efficient performance, reliability, and virtualization capabilities built into the hardware. And at this year’s Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, Intel Senior Fellow Stephen Pawlowski took the stage to discuss the next-generation expandable segment server processor, codenamed Nehalem-EX (PDF 205KB). In production in the second half of 2009, its performance increase will be dramatic, posting the highest-ever jump from a previous generation processor1. Nehalem-EX will feature up to eight cores inside a single chip supporting 16 threads and 24 MB of cache. For server consolidation,virtualization, cloud computing, data demanding applications, and other technical computing environments, Nehalem-EX greatly improves scalable performance, memory bandwidth and capacity, flexibility, and provides advanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features.
