Behind the power of virtualization and information-monster-cruncher lies the Core

If the earth's core is the future's new source of energy, what else is more powerful than woman's core?

Microprocessor industry giant Intel has launched a couple of new processors. These are from their Xeon 7400 Series server processor range.

The launches include the company’s first six core processor which is designed for use on servers.

The company said that this new range of processors deliver nearly 50 percent performance improvements compared to their existing products available in the market.

These processors are optimized for virtualization which is much in demand in the market today.

Tom Kilroy, VP and GM of Intel’s Digital Enterprise Group spoke about these new products: “With new features such as additional cores, large shared caches and advanced virtualization technologies, the Xeon 7400 series delivers record-breaking performance that will lead enterprises into the next wave of virtualization deployments.”
