Intel processors are the cornerstone of virtualization

As a leading processor manufacturer, Intel has been working with hardware and software partners to provide users with leading hardware-based Intel Virtualization technology to help users improve system utilization, reduce their overall cost of ownership, and ultimately achieve exceptional performance with all levels of server systems built on the Intel architecture. such as servers, clients, and embedded systems.

In implementing the innovation of hardware-assisted virtualization, Intel has released intel® Vt-x technology (x86 platform) and Vt-i technology (Platform for Android) supporting processor virtualization, Intel I/O virtual allocation Technology (VT-D) that supports chipset virtualization, Support and optimization of virtualization is done on multiple key components at the hardware level. This core technology, as an important component of Intel's virtualization Technology (Intel VT), dramatically improves the reliability, support, security, and flexibility of traditional virtualization solutions, effectively eliminates intermediate path and hypervisor overhead, accelerates flexible workload management, and delivers a broader virtualization solution platform.

On the innovation of processor products, Intel's newly released Xeon 7400 series processor, with 45 nm high K process technology, has advanced virtualization features such as Intel Virtualization Technology Flexmigration, which can achieve nearly 50% performance improvement while reducing power consumption by 10%. Become the ideal platform for implementing a virtual infrastructure. Flexmigration technology enables virtual machines to migrate from three-tier platforms based on the Intel Core microarchitecture (prior, existing, and future platforms), providing reliable investment protection for enterprise users, and helping IT administrators build virtual machine resource pools (virtualization pool). To achieve failover, disaster recovery, load balancing and other functions to optimize server maintenance and downtime.

In order to continuously improve the performance of the processor, Intel has proposed the innovative Tick-tock pendulum development model, that is, every 12 months to update the process technology or micro-architecture, and continuously improve the processor computing performance, for software optimization and improvement provides an important platform, Enables software companies to provide innovative and optimized solutions for a variety of areas over time. Intel's software and hardware partners recognize that only the hardware is stable and efficient, it is possible to maximize the functionality of the software, and only powerful and reliable processors to meet the hardware requirements of Microsoft virtualization technology. Intel's Xeon Multi-Core processors are well coordinated with efficient computing and reliability, satisfying the operational environment required by virtualized software partners, and enabling Dynamic Data center operations to be portable and have good automated job functions.

A more powerful processor is the cornerstone of the virtualization age boom. When the server platform, represented by the latest Intel Xeon 7400, is built on an ideal platform with finer craftsmanship, better virtual integration capabilities, and lower costs, Intel will work with hardware and software partners on this platform with virtualization technology to make everything possible.
