Features
Performance and Scalability
⚫
Powered by the third-generation Intel
®
Xeon
®
Scalable Cooper Lake processors, the
server provides up to 28 physical cores, 3.9 GHz frequency, a 38.5 MB L3 cache, and six
10.4 GT/s UPI links between the processors, which deliver supreme processing
performance.
−
It supports four processors with 112 cores and 224 threads to maximize the
concurrent execution of multithreaded applications.
−
The layered architecture of the processor cache is optimized. The L2 cache capacity
is increased to process memory data directly, which greatly improves the memory
access performance. Each core can exclusively use 1 MB of L2 cache, reducing the
load on L3 cache. A single processor can share a maximum of 38.5 MB L3 cache.
−
Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows processor cores to run faster than the
frequency specified in the Thermal Design Power (TDP) configuration if they are
operating below power, current, and temperature specification limits.
−
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology enables each processor core to run up to two
threads, improving parallel computation capability.
−
The hardware-assisted Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) allows
operating system (OS) to better use hardware to address virtualization workloads.
−
Intel Deep Learning Boost (Intel DL Boost) works with the latest bfloat16
instruction set and Vector Neural Network Instructions (VNNI) to accelerate AI
training and inference performance of the CPU.
−
With Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (AVX-512), applications can pack 32
double-precision and 64 single-precision floating-point operations per second in a
clock cycle within the 512-bit vectors, as well as eight 64-bit and sixteen 32-bit
integers, with up to two 512-bit fused multiply-add (FMA) units. Compared with
Intel
®
Advanced Vector Extensions 2.0 (Intel
®
AVX2), Intel
®
AVX-512 doubles the
width and number of data registers and the width of FMA units.
⚫
The server supports a maximum of 48 DDR4 ECC 3200 MT/s DIMMs. The DDR4 ECC
DIMMs support registered DIMMs (RDIMM) and load-reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs),
which provide high speed and availability.
⚫
The server supports a maximum of 24 Intel
®
Optane
TM
Persistent Memory Module 200
series (PMem modules for short). When the DDR4 memory modules are used together,
the server supports a maximum of 18 TB memory capacity (calculated based on a
maximum of 256 GB capacity per DDR4 memory module and a maximum of 512 GB
capacity per PMem module).
