Intel launched its new Xeon Phi processor for the Indian market on Friday. The Xeon Phi processor is a highly suitable for High Performance Computing (HPC) that enables complex tasks and supports highly scalable workloads in the area of science and technology research. With this Intel has strengthened its enterprise offerings.
"The new Xeon Phi processor will actually revolutionize HPC in India as Intel has a huge ecosystem of partners," said Dr. Avinash Palaniswamy (Nash), Senior Director - Sales Enablement, Enterprise & Government Group, DCG Intel Corporation.
"The processor supports highly scalable workloads powered by its 72 cores, 16 GB integrated memory and network fabric," added Palaniswamy.
In terms of HPC and its applications, he pointed that it plays a key role in weather forecast, disaster monitoring and has become integral part of daily life in the areas of life science, precision medicine, testing and research.
Along with that, HPC helps in the area of oil exploration, financial services, fraud detection, machine learning as well as artificial intelligence.
According to Intel, the availability of new processor will not only enable High Performance Computing here but also help products to market faster, solve complex problems faster, and power simulations that don't require physical testing. It wants to collaborate more closely with the automotive, manufacturing and aerospace industries.
Intel is closely working with India's top educational institutes namely C-DAC and Indian Institute of Science (II Sc) in the areas of HPC. "Academia, manufacturing, life science, precision medicine are huge markets in India for HPC," said Palaniswamy.
Though weather forecast and aerospace are largely led by governments, Palaniswamy added that industries and enterprises are investing in HPC to leverage applications like analytics and artificial intelligence (AI).
Company expects strong demand and adoption of Xeon processor to enable HPC in the areas of science, technology research along with education, manufacturing, aerospace, life sciences and precision medicine.
In a bid to attract developer community, Intel has also initiated a Developer Access Program (DAP) for purchase of Xeon Phi processor also codenamed as Knight Landings (KNL), which is priced under $5000, informed Palaniswamy.
