Intel presented the first view of the new Intel Xeon roadmap to 2024 at the 2022 Investor Meeting. Laying the groundwork for continued growth and leadership in the data center market, Intel adds a new ultra-efficient processor family (codename: Sierra Forest) to its product line, upgrading key products to more advanced compute nodes and presenting a new, far-reaching architectural strategy for the data center. These next-generation products will accelerate the company’s growth in the cloud, network and edge. “Today we present to the world a clear view of our industry-leading Xeon roadmap that will accelerate our growth and leadership through and beyond 2024,” said Sandra Rivera, Intel vice president and general manager, Data Center and Artificial Intelligence Group
. He added: “This diversified product portfolio has been developed in close partnership with our customers and tailored to their different needs, tailored to their schedules, and designed to trigger even more innovation with their developer ecosystem.”
A New Architecture; A Leadership Roadmap
will outline a new bi-directional roadmap of Intel’s new architectural strategy for the next generations of Xeon, consisting of Performance core (P-core) and Efficient core (E-core) based products, and two will move from the optimized platform to the only common, industry-defining platform. This new path ahead will maximize performance per watt, segment capabilities, and Intel’s overall competitiveness in the industry. In explaining this new approach, Intel reinforced its compatibility with the broad Xeon platform ecosystem that exists today and the many benefits that customers can derive from a single investment.
- Sapphire Rapids: For Intel’s P-core product line in Intel 7, Sapphire Rapids’ is the most feature-rich to date, moving its data center leadership position to some key areas such as AI performance and security features. stood on it. Intel will begin the first shipment of Sapphire Rapids for revenue next month and lead the industry’s transition to next-generation memory and interface standards, including DDR5, PCIe Gen5 and the new Compute Express Link high-speed interconnect.
- Emerald Rapids:In 2023, Intel will introduce the next-generation P-core processor on the Intel 7 compute node. This processor will be a socket-compatible replacement for Sapphire Rapids, improving performance and increasing the memory and security benefits on the existing platform. It will provide an easily adoptable and valuable upgrade for customers of .
- Sierra Forest: As part of this new strategy, Intel has announced for the first time details of Sierra Forest, its new E-core-based Xeon processor for the data center.Sierra Forest delivers performance efficiency per watt and TCO advantage. Planned for 2024, this new product is a purpose-built solution designed for the needs of Intel’s hyperscale customers, with a core uniquely optimized for cloud workloads.
- Granite Rapids: Reinforcing confidence in the health of the Intel 3 processor node, Intel has announced that it will upgrade Granite Rapids from Intel 4 to Intel 3. This next-generation P-core Xeon product will be available in 2024 and Intel ‘s leadership in the industry will consolidate. 3. Acceleration with 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors
This new look at Intel’s data center roadmap shares future innovations with customers while Intel supports existing 3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors optimized for modern workloads. It also gains strong momentum with its processors (Ice Lake). With over 1 million products sold in the last three months of 2021 alone, Intel has already shipped almost 2 million products to customers around the world. What’s more, overall Intel Xeon sales for December 2021 exceeded any competitor’s overall server CPU sales for all of 2021.
