Server strong core hit Haswell Xeon E5 released this quarter

According to media reports, Intel has begun to offer server manufacturers Xeon E5 processor Haswell architecture. Xeon series processors with its stability Performance, has maintained a very good market share in the server field, now the new Xeon processor has come, I believe the new Xeon will still have satisfactory performance.

Server strong core hit Haswell Xeon E5 released this quarter

E3 series Xeon processors with its excellent price / performance, so many DIY players gradually have a certain understanding of the Xeon products. Xeon E5 processor is usually used in two-way or four-way server market, the price is not so close to E3 series. The new E5 code-named Grantley, will succeed the predecessor chip Romley.

Although the codenamed Grantley Xeon E5 has not yet officially listed, but Lenovo has announced plans to launch the server products in the quarter. I believe in the server field has been doing well HP, Dell, Huawei and other products will be introduced in the future.

Brian Kozinik, Intel's new CEO, said that Grantley chips have begun shipping to cloud computing customers and high-performance customers who set up their own computing centers. Most of the chips shipped to the server manufacturer's project, mainly used to test the server chip, design the server, and then make the latest server product. In addition, according to the relevant analyst data show that Xeon E5 Intel server chip shipments accounted for about 75%. This shows that Xeon E5 series processors for Intel, is a very important product.

Grantley chip or will have more processor cores than the previous generation of products, while supporting memory, will also be greatly improved. Grantley chips will likely face competition from x86 Opteron 4000 and 6000 chips in the server chip market, but Intel now accounts for 95% of the server chip market and even occupies the Xeon E5 bit higher.

The author's point of view:

Relative to consumer-level processors, the server area to be much more stable. This is also the most stable part of Intel and major server vendors. In the PC market overall weakness in the case, the server and the commercial market accounted for most of these manufacturers revenue. It is with its solid market position and huge revenue in the server market that Intel is able and confident to invest significant capital and manpower in the mobile computing market.
