2 As we move into the third quarter of 2011, the need to boost competitiveness and productivity cannot be shied away. As an IT decision maker, enhancing your competencies while decreasing TCO and increasing ROI, driving performance up is of vital importance for the enterprise. In this volume, the Intel Roadmap Directions is focused on the path-breaking 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processor family that includes features that will help businesses respond faster, secure systems more automatically, prove compliance, support mobile users better, and grow more agile in an increasingly competitive market. We also look at how 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processors are perfect for desktop virtualization. The spotlight is also on the Intel Xeon processor E7 and E3 family which offers breakthrough performance along with energy cost savings, providing an intelligent approach to IT challenges. This edition of the Intel Roadmap Directions gives you a versatile insight into Intel s most recent and innovative technologies that are set to drive your business into the future and keep it ahead of the change curve. 2nd Generation Intel Core vpro Processor Family New levels of security, manageability and responsiveness Business PCs powered by the 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processor family deliver performance you can see in maximized hardware-assisted security, easier remote PC 1,2 management, and intelligent performance that adapts to user needs. Built to be IT Intelligent PC fleet management can consume a lot of your time as an IT professional. But when you deploy PCs powered by 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processors, you can simplify and accelerate management tasks. Remote management capabilities in this visibly smart processor makes PC upkeep easier and more cost effective, enabling you to keep your PCs running smoothly without taking them out of the hands of users. Simplify Remote Management in your Organization One of the great features of PCs powered by 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processors is that they simplify the remote configuration process to shorten your time to manageability. Once Intel vpro Technology is activated, you can remotely configure, diagnose, isolate, and repair an 2 infected PC even if it s unresponsive. Now you can choose to activate the IT intelligent features of 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processors anytime you want, using the method that makes the most sense for you. Positive ROI in 9 months Just from 3 Reducing Power Consumption Unmanaged PCs waste energy. Simply by using the secure remote power up/down capability, some companies have recouped their investment in a PC with Intel vpro 3 technology in as little as 9 months. By implementing other capabilities of a PC with Intel vpro Technology, businesses can realize further savings. Intel s 2nd generation of Core processors take the many successful aspects of existing Intel processor technology with the latest research and added benefits of many decades producing top notch processors. Advancements in GPU integration, memory controllers, Turbo Boost, and Smart Cache enables the 2nd generation Core series to excel in all areas surpassing expectations. TechwareLabs

3 New in the 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processor family Intel Turbo Boost Technology Automatically speeds up the processor when the user s workload requires it. 5 KVM Remote Control Hardware-based feature that helps IT remotely resolve the most complex software failures and also eliminates the need to purchase and maintain costly hardware KVM switches in the production environment. Optional Intel Anti-Theft Technology (Intel AT) 6 Lock down and brick the PC in suspicious circumstances. 7 Intel AES-NI (Intel Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions) Speeds up performance for software that uses the AES algorithm for encryption & decryption. Built-in Visuals With Intel Quick Sync Video, hardware-based media acceleration for faster content creation, richer colours for multimedia and collaboration applications. Next-generation Intel Centrino Wireless Products Deliver up to a 5X bandwidth/speed increase on the 2x2 adapter, and up to 8X bandwidth/speed increase on the 3x3 adapter, as compared to a/b/g s 54 Mbps. Intel Management Engine Firmware Roll-back IT administrators can choose the version of Intel AMT 7.x firmware to deploy, which helps businesses maintain consistency in their firmware infrastructure even as they upgrade PCs. Host-based Configuration Lets a business use streamlined scripts to activate PCs with Intel Core Technology in matter of minutes. These and other advances in the 2nd generation Intel Core processor family will help businesses respond faster, secure systems more automatically, prove compliance, support mobile users better, and grow more agile in an increasingly competitive market. Intel has a real winner on their hands here. The 2nd generation Intel Core processors deliver blazing speed and energy savings. 8 PCWorld Desktop Virtualization with Intel Core Processors Enabling maximum control, security, flexibility and manageability Desktop virtualization provides huge opportunities when it comes to controlling costs, improving security and compliance, enhancing business continuity, and providing the basis for more efficient PC management. Recent advances in technology give IT a wide range of desktop virtualization options to choose from, including local, virtual container, streamed, and remotely hosted. Regardless of which opportunities and options you choose to embrace, there must be proper safeguards in place. An intelligent client approach, based on 2nd generation Intel Core vpro processors can provide the foundation for a highly manageable and secure platform for delivering all desktop virtualization models and for protecting corporate assets while optimizing the user experience. With Desktop Virtualization, you can: Boot software into a trusted state and protect credentials during both orderly and disorderly shutdowns. Make virtualization more efficient and improve performance to near-native levels or better with Intel 9 Virtualization Technology (Intel VT), which eliminates the performance overhead of software-only virtualization and allows for robust security support. Improve isolation of one virtual environment from another with hardware-based technology that virtualizes the processor, memory, and directed I/O. Combined with leading virtualization software from companies such as Citrix* and Microsoft*, this can significantly help to improve security for critical processes and sensitive data. Remotely manage data security settings or unlock encrypted drives that require preboot authentication even when PCs are powered off with hardware-based technologies that reside below the OS level.

Calculation includes analysis based on performance, power, cooling, electricity rates, operating system annual license costs and estimated server costs. This assumes 42U racks, $0.10 per kwh, cooling costs are 2x the server power consumption costs, operating system license cost of $900/year per server, per server cost of $36,000 based on estimated list prices, and estimated server utilization rates. All dollar figures are approximate. Estimated SPECint*_rate_base2006 performance and power results are measured for Intel Xeon processor E and estimated form Intel Xeon processor 7041-based servers. Platform power was measured during the steady state window of the benchmark run and at idle. Performance gain compared to baseline was 18x (truncated) bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers, and applications enabled for Intel 64 architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information. 14 Enabling Execute Disable Bit functionality requires a PC with a processor with Execute Disable Bit capability and a supporting operating system. Check with your PC manufacturer on whether your system delivers Execute Disable Bit functionality.
