30.05.2013 - AMD annuncia le cpu Opteron X-Series per i server cloud e big data

AMD ha annunciato una nuova linea di processori low-power dedicati ai sistemi di tipo server, denominata AMD Opteron X-Series (nome in codice: Kyoto).

Al momento la linea Opteron X-Series include due modelli siglati X1150 (frequenza di clock fino a 2GHz e TDP pari a 9W) e X2150 (clock fino a 1.9GHz e TDP pari a 11W); entrambi sono basati su quattro core x86 che implementano l'architettura Jaguar.

Inoltre, la variante X2150, che in effetti è un'APU e non una CPU in senso stretto, include una AMD Radeon HD 8000, dotata di 128 core realizzati in accordo all'architettura Graphics Core Next di AMD.

I nuovi Opteron X di AMD possono gestire fino a 32GB di RAM DDR3 con ECC e frequenza di clock fino a 1600MHz (SODIMM e UDIMM) e integrano un controller PCI-Express Gen 2 a otto linee, un controller USB 3.0 (2 porte) e uno USB 2.0 (8 porte), oltre a un controller SATA III.

Concepiti per gli ambiti cloud e big data, i nuovi Opteron X-Series di AMD sono stati scelti da HP per l'assemblaggio dei server Moonshot.



AMD (NYSE: AMD) today unveiled a new family of low power server processors: the AMD Opteron X-Series optimized for scale-out server architectures. The first AMD Opteron X-Series processors, formerly known as "Kyoto," are the highest density, most power-efficient small core x86 processors ever built1. The new X1150 and X2150 processors beat the top performing Intel Atom processor on key performance benchmarks, including single thread and throughput performance with superior power-efficiency, twice the cores and L2 cache with a more advanced pipeline architecture, higher integration and support for up to 32 gigabytes of DRAM—4x more than the Intel Atom processor.

The AMD Opteron X-Series processors come in two variants. The AMD Opteron X2150, which consumes as little as 11 watts, is the first server APU system-on-a-chip integrating CPU and GPU engines with a high-speed bus on a single die. This enables customers to take advantage of leading-edge AMD Radeon HD 8000 graphics technology for multimedia-oriented server workloads. The AMD Opteron X1150, which consumes as little as 9 watts, is a CPU-only version optimized for general scale-out workloads.

"The data center is at an inflection point and requires a high number of cores in a dense form factor with integrated graphics, massive amounts of DRAM and unprecedented power efficiency to keep up with the pace of innovation of Internet services," said Andrew Feldman, corporate vice president and general manager, Server Business Unit at AMD. "AMD has a proud history of server innovation, and the AMD Opteron X-Series processors challenge the status quo by providing unmatched capabilities to drive the most energy-efficient servers in the industry."

The AMD Opteron X-Series processors are now the world’s premier small-core x86 APUs and CPUs, ideal for next-generation scale-out web and cloud applications ranging from big data analytics to image processing, multimedia content delivery, and hosting.

"Fundamental changes in computing architectures are required to support space, power and cost demands organizations need to deliver compelling, new infrastructure economics," said Paul Santeler, vice president and general manager, Hyperscale Server business segment, HP. "The new x86 AMD Opteron X-Series processors integrated into future HP Moonshot servers will continue to push the boundaries of power efficiency for social, mobile, cloud and big data workloads."
