- Put your Applications into Hyperdrive with the Next Generation HyperFlex All NVMe* HCI with Intel® Optane™ DC SSD
- Are you ready to take full advantage of an all-NVMe* system? The advantages of all-NVMe storage systems are being discovered now. Elimination of the storage subsystem as a bottleneck represents a paradox shift. If your HCI vendor qualifies all NVMe drives, but still uses legacy protocols and underpowered CPUs, you are leaving performance on the...

- The Fast and the Furiously Fast Storage
- Run, run as fast as you can… You can’t catch me… I am the Microsoft S2D* plus Intel® Optane™ SSD man! Performance has always been a popular discussion topic among system architects. And, when the solution design is put to the test, sometimes it feels like more could have been done. When testing all NVMe*-based...
read more - Nine Steps to Efficient, Practical VM and Container Migration
- When you work in IT, you’re used to being asked to do more with less. While virtualization has been central to achieving this goal, it is, in itself, no longer enough. Key to delivering greater efficiency and optimal resource management is the ability to seamlessly migrate workloads to their most efficient location. Imagine, for example,...

- By 2020, the ratio of training deep learning models to inference within enterprises will rapidly shift to 1:51 , versus 1:1 where we see it today. Intel refers to this impending shift as ‘inference at scale’ – and it marks deep learning’s coming of age moment. Why? Because whereas training focuses on feeding and inputting...
read more - Tailor In-Memory Analytics to Your Needs
- The traditional ‘rear view mirror’ approach to analytics is no longer enough. Rather than drawing insights after the fact, analytics need to provide insights in real time to inform business decisions, or even predict future events before they occur. New technologies such as predicative modelling and AI are no longer adventurous options for exceptional businesses,...
read more - 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors bring powerful Deep Learning capabilities to transform your business with A.I.
- From enabling security throughout a city, to the rapid identification and classification of complex medical imaging data, Intel is accelerating the value of IoT. As the billions of connected things generate massive data at ever-increasing rates, the Internet of Things (IoT) and AI are converging to create a pivotal transition — with more data being...
read more - Engage “Ludicrous Speed”
- The goal of every data base architect is to have instantaneous access to data. However, we are often limited by bottlenecks, and it does not matter how optimized the code and hardware is… We want more SPEED. Ludicrous SPEED! In the chase for fast data access, more often than not, storage is in the middle...
read more - HPC and AI Converge Under a Common Architecture
- High performance computing (HPC), once specialized to scientific and government supercomputers, has expanded to a range of workloads, including visualization, analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI). With so many different types of highly-demanding tasks now open for enterprises to pursue, Intel has created a family of Intel® Select Solutions based on a common foundation of hardware...
read more - The Dawn of “O+Q” for BOTH Lower Cost AND Higher Performance Software Defined Storage – Part I Ceph* Block Storage
- Imagine waking up tomorrow and your favorite coffee tasted better and cost less, or finding out that flights to Hawaii are now shorter and first class seats cost the same as coach. That would be amazing! As technologists, that is what you and I do! We develop technologies that increase performance and reduce costs both...

- On the heels of the announcement on Aurora with Argonne National Labs and the United States Department of Energy, I am proud and excited about the announcement of the latest additions to our comprehensive high performance computing (HPC) solution portfolio from Intel Data-Centric Innovation Day, including 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors, Intel Xeon Platinum...
read more - Hybrid Cloud Solutions Upgraded with New Intel Technology
- Hybrid cloud is the infrastructure of choice for enterprises today. Most enterprises continue to invest in both private and public cloud options for improved operations and greater productivity. Hybrid cloud allows IT managers to control costs and increase security through optimized workload placement. Even with all its benefits, hybrid cloud deployment is still a complex...
read more - New Intel® Select Solutions Give Businesses the Tools to Harness Artificial Intelligence
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) workloads are a relatively new challenge for enterprises. Much of the Deep Learning focus in AI has been on training—teaching neural networks to create the best model for solving a particular problem by processing massive data sets. As teams succeed in training effective models, inferencing—putting those trained models to work inside actual...
read more - Data-hungry workloads in your VMware vSAN based data center?
- One of the questions that comes up often when I meet architects around the world designing data center modernization with Hyper Converged Infrastructure (HCI) is, “How important is the hardware for HCI deployment?” Given HCI solutions are software-defined and the software magically virtualizes and manages all of the compute, storage and networking features, users sometimes...
