INTRODUCING THE INTEL® XEON PHI™ PROCESSOR - YOUR PATH TO DEEPER INSIGHT

Powerful Performance for Deeper Insights

Eliminate node bottlenecks, simplify your code modernization, and build on a power-efficient architecture with the Intel® Xeon Phi™ processor, a foundational element of Intel® Scalable System Framework. The bootable host processor offers an integrated architecture for powerful, highly parallel performance that will pave your path to deeper insight, innovation, and impact for today's most-demanding High Performance Computing applications, including Machine Learning. Supported by a comprehensive technology roadmap and robust ecosystem, the Intel® Xeon Phi™ processor is a future-ready solution that maximizes your return on investment by using open standards code that are flexible, portable, and reusable.

Processors

Intel designs advanced, high-performance processors for every usage, including enterprise-scale servers, IoT devices, laptops, desktops, workstations, and mobile devices. To find information, specifications, downloads and support for each processor, start by selecting a Processor family.

The Intel® QuickAssist Adapter 8950 provides customers with a scalable, flexible and extendable way to offer QuickAssist crypto acceleration and Compression capa - bilities to their existing product lines. The Intel 8950 features the Intel® Communica - tion Chipset 8955 controller supporting Intel QuickAssist Technology for improved cryptographic and compression perfor - mance. Intel® QuickAssist Technology provides hardware acceleration to assist with the performance demands of secur - ing and routing Internet traffic and other workloads such as compression and wire - less 3G/4G LTE algorithm offload, thereby reserving processor cycles for application and control processing.

The Intel® QuickAssist Adapter 8950 provides up to 50 Gbps for virtual private networks (VPNs) and helps storage and network optimization applications better handle compression and decompression tasks. Kasumi and Snow 3G functions within Intel QuickAssist Technology help with 3G and 4G LTE mobile gateway and infrastructure workloads

The Intel® QuickAssist Adapter 8950 provides flexible performance based on the requirements of the platform-up to 50 Gbps of crypto acceleration or up to 24 Gbps of compression in a PCIe compliant, low-profile form factor.

The Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessor:

A single programming model for all your code

A broad ecosystem of programming languages, models, and tools support the Intel® architecture, and all of them can be used with both the Intel Xeon processors and Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors. Applications that run on one processor family will run on the other. This uniformity can greatly reduce the complexity of software development. Existing applications will need to be tuned and recompiled to maximize throughput, but your develpers won't need to rethink the entire problem or master new tools and programming models. Instead, they can reuse existing code and maintain a common code base using familiar tools and methods.
