#AMD EPYC processor ecosystem

AMD has recently unveiled the latest EPYC 7003 series processors, which set a new standard with new Zen 3 cores and modern security features. The AMD EPYC 7003 Series processors boast up to 64 "Zen 3" cores per processor and up to 32MB of L3 cache per core while offering the PCIe 4 connectivity and class-leading memory bandwidth that defined the EPYC 7002 series CPUs. The SEV-SNP increases the existing SEV features on EPYC processors, adding strong memory integrity protection capabilities to prevent malicious hypervisor-based attacks. According to AMD, the new EPYC 7003 series processors help HPC, cloud, and enterprise customers do faster by delivering the best performance of any server CPU with up to 19% more instructions per clock. AMD EPYC has been engineered for data centers that rely on CPU performance and throughput. "With the launch of our 3rd Gen AMD EPYC processors, we are incredibly excited to deliver the fastest server CPU in the world. These processors extend our data center leadership and help customers solve today’s most complex IT challenges while substantially growing our ecosystem," said Forrest Norrod, senior vice president and general manager, Data Center and Embedded Solutions Business Group. The processors run all x86 applications virtually, enabling worry-free migration and seamless integration into existing x86 infrastructures, as AMD claims.
