Intel Technology Brief Sample
Harnessing Intelligent Performance
Across all ranges of operating environments and industries, both
large and small, IT is looking to better align computing resources with
the needs of users and business. The intelligent performance of the
Intel Xeon processor 5500 series enables this alignment, giving you
fine-grained control to put resources where they will have the most
business impact:
- Intel Turbo Boost Technology and IntelĀ® Intelligent Power Technology enable policy-based control that allows processors to operate at optimal frequency and power. The operating system can make this determination automatically, or administrators can manually designate in BIOS which applications require high-frequency processing and which should be executed at lower frequencies to conserve power.
- Many server and workstation applications lend themselves to parallel, multi-threaded execution. With Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, those environments will benefit from increased software throughput to deliver maximum performance for system power and data center footprint. For those environments where single-threaded applications exist, IT developers can use Intel and third-party programming tools to create multi-threaded applications that take full advantage of Intel Hyper-Threading Technology.
