An Interview with Intel's Kira Boyko: Xeon 6's Product Director (chipsandcheese.com)

[dead]

TLDR:

- What is a product director?

- Xeon naming is very confusing

- AET is Application Energy Telemetry

- A lot of discussions about cheese

So the most exciting feature is not some architectural improvement for higher performance or greater efficiency…

The most exciting feature is now cloud providers will be able to charge for the specific amount of energy used by the CPU for each workload ???

All the while leaving out energy costs associated with GPUs, RAM, storage, networking …

Surprised they didn’t take a page from Apple and paint it fluorescent orange or such…
