Chapter 1: Introduction

Management Engine (ME)

The Management Engine (ME) is an ARC controller embedded in the IOH (I/O Hub) and 
provides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. Please be aware that the services 
provided by SPS are different from those provided by the ME on client platforms.

1.8 Intel® Optane DC Persistent Memory Overview

2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable-SP processors support new DCPMM (Optane™ DC Persistent 
Memory Modules) technology that offers data persistence with higher capacity than existing 
memory modules and lower latency than NVMe SSDs. DCPMM memory provides hyper-

speed storage capability for high performance computing platforms with flexible configuration 

options.
