Server Consolidation Using Quad-Core Processors
Overview Intel IT used the Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor 5300 series to consolidate test workloads from eight physical machines into Virtual Machines (VMs) running on a single server. The dual-socket server completed the workloads 66 percent faster than the original eight servers based on the Intel Pentium III processor, using 86 percent less power per workload. The quadcore processors were also 34 percent faster than the Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5148 running the same consolidated workloads, with workload completion times remaining much more uniform and predictable as the number of workloads increased. The results show the strong potential of the Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor 5300 series for high levels of consolidation and virtualization, particularly with CPU intensive applications.
