Boxed Intel
®
Xeon
Processor MP
Built on the .13 Micron Process Technology
with up to 4MB on-die cache
The Intel
®
Xeon
processor 
MP provides mid-to-high and 
back-end users with world class
performance for demanding 
enterprise applications. Running at up to 3 GHz with up
to 4MB of integrated Level 3 Cache, the Intel
®
Xeon
processor MP is the processor of choice for demanding
server applications.
The New Performance Standard 
The new Intel
®
Xeon
processor MP brings a broad
range of innovations that make it the new performance
standard for the most demanding enterprise and 
e-Business server applications. Designed specifically 
for multi-threaded applications in multi-processor 
server environments, the Intel Xeon processor MP with 
Hyper-Threading Technology and integrated three-level
cache architecture delivers unprecedented performance
and scalability.
Consolidation of the mid-tier
Mid-tier and back-end applications have 
characteristics that are fundamentally different from
most front-end applications, including:
• Larger software footprints
• More complex transactions
• Larger data sets
Many of these applications are also 
multi-threaded, capable of processing multiple 
instruction streams simultaneously. Multi-threading 
can improve resource utilization to enhance capacity
and throughput.
Because of these characteristics, mid-tier and higher
applications typically benefit from more robust server
platforms. Multiple dual-processor servers can deliver
massive processing for easily distributed workloads, but
complex applications and transactions benefit from
concentrated, tightly coupled processing power acting
on a single memory space. Servers based on the Intel
®
Xeon™ processor MP can help you consolidate your IT
infrastructure into fewer servers.
Lower operational costs
The use of more powerful multi-processor-based
servers simplifies the infrastructure and reduces the
drain on data center resources, such as power, cooling,
floor space and network bandwidth. This can save a
substantial amount on monthly utility payments. Even
more importantly, it can reduce the need for costly, and
potentially disruptive, data center build outs.
Scale right
Microsoft Exchange Server* is a good example of
an application that scales most effectively on multiple 
4-way servers. Not only do 4-way Intel processor-based
servers match the workload demands of Exchange, 
but they are easily deployed at multiple locations. This
distributed approach helps to avoid the latency issues
that can impact performance when a centralized 
infrastructure is used to serve a large number of 
distributed users.
