Intel this week officially introduced its new Itanium 9300 processor series, which you may recognize by its codename, Tukwila. According to Intel, the 9300 series chips more than double the performance of its predecessor, while also boosting both scalability and reliability.
"Intel is committed to delivering a new era of mission-critical computing, and we are delighted 80 percent of Global 100 companies have chosen Itanium-based servers for their most demanding workloads,"said Kirk Skaugen, vice president Intel Architecture Groupand general manager Data Center Group. "Intel is continuing to drive the economics of Moore's Law into mission-critical computing with today's Itanium 9300 processor announcement, more than doubling performance for our customers once again."
Intel added that OEM systems based on the Itanium 9300-series will be binary-compatible with existing software, giving customers a big performance boost without needing any additional software optimizations.
Prices for the new chips range from $946 to $3,838 in quantities of 1,000.
