The Intel® Xeon® processor 7400 series, offers the industry's highest virtualization performance so you can do more with less. With key platform innovations built-in, the Intel Xeon processor 7400 series offers more headroom, reliability, and the highest expandability for large-scale server consolidation.Product brief: Intel® Xeon® processor 7400 series (PDF 478KB)IDC White paper: Choosing the right hardware for server virtualization (PDF 195KB)
Best-in-class performance
With enhanced 45nm Intel® Core™ microarchitecture, the new Intel Xeon processor 7400 series is best-in-class for demanding enterprise workloads with almost 50% better performance in some cases and up to 10% reduction in platform power compared to previous generation expandable servers.¹ Designed and optimized for IT, these 6-core processors provide industry-leading multi-core processing and greater computing performance without increasing footprint and power demands. With 16MB shared L3 cache, scalability beyond 4 sockets, 1066 million transfers per second (MT/s), and support for up to 256GB of RAM, the Intel Xeon processor 7400 series is the ideal choice for your data-intensive, business-critical performance requirements.
Headroom and scalability built in
Offering more low voltage options including 65W 6-core and 50W 4-core processors, Intel Xeon processor 7400 series for blade and ultra-dense platforms reduce cooling requirements, lowering IT costs. In addition, these processors are designed with Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT), enabling an ecosystem of software-based virtualization from industry leading software providers.
