Transistor scaling has historically used smaller dimensions as a means to reduce cost and increase performance, but modern computing applications tend to value improved power efficiency over raw increases in operating frequency. These new product requirements have shifted how transistors are developed to focus more on reductions in leakage and active power. This Technology Insight will describe Intel’s revolutionary 22 nm Tri-Gate transistors and how these provide industry-leading low power capabilities for products that range from high performance servers to low power smart phones.

Today a quarter of the world’s population—1.5 billion people—connect to the Internet. Over the next five years, there will be 10 billion client devices and 1 billion additional users accessing hundreds of thousands of Internet services, all competing for limited IT resources. This number of devices and users will likely choke traditional infrastructure without a radically simpler, more secure, and more efficient way of doing things. In addition, various sectors such as healthcare, eco-technology, mobile computing, HPC, and others are all expected to leverage the capabilities offered by cloud computing for both devices and users, enabling basic needs as well as solving grand challenges. Today’s IT management is grappling with significant challenges in cloud adoption and deployment such as security, federation, automation, client awareness, energy efficiency, and infrastructure simplification. Addressing these challenges will require continued technology innovation as the industry transitions to cloud application and infrastructure architectures.
In this Technology Insight, Steve Pawlowski, Intel Senior Fellow and CTO of Intel Architecture Group, will discuss some of the cloud architecture challenges facing the industry and some of the technologies emerging to address them.
