Scalable Skylake or Cascade Lake processors, the server
provides up to 20 cores, 3.8 GHz frequency, a 38.5 MB L3 cache, and two 10.4 GT/s
UPI links between the processors which deliver supreme processing performance.
−
It supports up to two processors with 40 cores and 80 threads to maximize the
concurrent execution of multithreaded applications.
−
An L2 cache is added. Each core can exclusively use 1 MB of L2 cache and at least
1.375 MB of 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) vendors to better use hardware to address virtualization
workloads.
−
Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (Intel AVX-512) significantly accelerates
floating-point performance for computing-intensive applications.
−
The Cascade Lake processors support Intel® Deep Learning Boost vector neural
network instructions (VNNI) to improve the performance of deep learning
applications.
⚫
The server supports double data rate 4 (DDR4) registered dual in-line memory modules
(RDIMMs) and load-reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs) with error checking and correcting
(ECC). A server fully configured with sixteen 2933 MT/s memory modules (only
available with Cascade Lake processors) provides 1024 GB memory space and the
maximum theoretical memory bandwidth of 249.9375 GB/s.
⚫
Flexible drive configurations cater to a variety of business requirements and ensure high
elasticity and scalability of storage resources.
⚫
The use of all solid-state drives (SSDs) is supported. An SSD supports up to 100 times
more I/O operations per second (IOPS) than a typical hard disk drive (HDD). The use of
all SSDs provides higher I/O performance than the use of all HDDs or a combination of
HDDs and SSDs.
⚫
The LANs on motherboard (LOMs) and FlexIO cards provide a variety of ports to meet
different networking requirements.
