Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors
Intel® Xeon processor families are the foundation of new services being deployed by AWS. AWS instances based on Intel® processors are ready to serve unique and innovative new workloads that demand better data protection, faster processing of greater data volumes, and service flexibility without a hit to performance.

Intel® Advanced Vector Extension 512 (Intel® AVX-512) offers accelerated application performance 2x better than previous generation technologies, enabling significant improvements in workload speed and data application.

Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT) remains Intel’s technology for establishing more secure platforms, and with Intel® One Touch Activation comes an added level of protection for geographic needs like regional and county-specific data sovereignty regulations.
