Intel's Enterprise Processor Plans: Positioning the Xeon Processor and the Itanium Processor

Overview Innovation in processor design at Intel is not limited to the Itanium processor family. Intel's new and enhanced Xeon processor will play an important role in the company's product lines, in the server products delivered by system suppliers, and in the datacenter where multitudes of IA-32 applications will move ahead to a faster and more flexible platform. The Intel Itanium processor remains the company's high- performance processor offering, and platforms using both Xeon and Itanium processors will be used across the spectrum of datacenter workloads, with Itanium processor-based servers taking on the most demanding workloads.
