server provides up to 28 cores, 3.8 GHz frequency, a 38.5 MB L3 cache, and
three 10.4 GT/s UPI links between the processors, which deliver supreme
processing performance.
It supports four processors with 112 cores and 224 threads to maximize
the concurrent execution of multithreaded applications.
Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows processor cores to run faster
than the frequency specified in the Thermal Design Power (TDP)
configuration if they are operating below power, current, and
temperature specification limits.
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology enables each processor core to run up
to two threads, improving parallel computation capability.
The hardware-assisted Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) allows
operating system (OS) vendors to better use hardware to address
virtualization workloads.
Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (Intel AVX-512) significantly
accelerates floating-point performance for computing-intensive
applications.
The Cascade Lake processors support Intel® Deep Learning Boost vector
neural network instructions (VNNI) to improve the performance of deep
learning applications.
The CH242 V5 fully configured with 48 LRDIMMs provides supreme speed,
high availability, and a maximum memory capacity of 6 TB.
The maximum theoretical memory bandwidth is 550 GB/s (64 bit/8 x 2933
MHz x 6 channels x 4), which is 83.3% higher than that of the previous-
generation platform.
The use of all solid-state drives (SSDs) is supported. An SSD supports up to
100 times more I/O operations per second (IOPS) than a typical hard disk
drive (HDD). The use of all SSDs provides higher I/O performance than the
use of all HDDs or a combination of HDDs and SSDs.
The compute node supports 192-lane PCIe 3.0 (8 GT/s per lane) to provide
20% higher I/O bandwidth than the previous 160-lane PCIe.
