Based on the slides, do some processors lack virtualization support?
- sebazzz 9y agoMust be a mistake. Other than video rendering, virtualization is a good task for a multi-core processor.
- JonathonW 9y ago“vPro” in this context is probably Intel AMT (Intel uses the “vPro” branding to cover several unrelated technologies)... but Intel’s used virtualization capabilities (specifically VT-d and VT-x) as a point of product line segmentation before, so its not that far-fetched that they might omit something, especially if they’re concerned about cannibalizing server-class processor sales.
- randyrand 9y agomight want to discourage server use.
- Carioca 9y agoThe only technologies they lack are related to remote management, as joathonW said: https://ark.intel.com/products/134903/Intel-Core-i9-8950HK-Processor-12M-Cache-up-to-4_60-GHz https://ark.intel.com/products/134903/Intel-Core-i9-8950HK-P...
- Carioca 9y agoHow they currently define vPro: Intel® vPro™ Technology is a set of security and manageability capabilities built into the processor aimed at addressing four critical areas of IT security: 1) Threat management, including protection from rootkits, viruses, and malware 2) Identity and web site access point protection 3) Confidential personal and business data protection 4) Remote and local monitoring, remediation, and repair of PCs and workstations
