New server chips offer up to 80 percent better performance and up to 80 percent lower total cost of ownership than competing RISC architectures.
Intel launched a new line of server chips Tuesday aimed at helping firms crunch big data problems.
“Organizations that leverage data to accelerate business insights will have a tremendous edge in this economy,” Diane Bryant, senior vice president and general manager of Intel’s Data Center Group, said in a press release. “The advanced performance, memory capacity, and reliability of the Intel Xeon processor E7 v2 family enable IT organizations to deliver real-time analysis of large data sets to spot and capitalize on trends, create new services, and deliver business efficiency.”
According to Intel, the new Xeon E7 v2 lineup provides double the average performance and four times the I/O bandwidth of current-generation Xeons. The processor line supports up to 1.5TB of memory per socket and offers models with between six to 15 cores, which will allow it to sort through big data sets faster than the competition from IBM’s POWER lineup or ARM. The Xeon E7 28xx v2 is the dual core model; Xeon E7-48xx v2 is the quad-core variant; while the Xeon E7-88xx v2 is the eight-core edition. *The processors support server configurations of up to 32 sockets.
The processors are based on the Ivy Bridge EX architecture and are manufactured on the 22nm process node. The lineup has a maximum TDP of 155W.

Almost every major server maker has committed to making servers with the chips: Asus, Cisco, Dell, EMC, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Hewlett-Packard, Huawei, Lenovo, NEC, Oracle, PowerLeader, Quanta, SGI, Sugon, Supermicro, Unisys, and ZTE, all have servers under production Intel said.
