Cascade Lake?

I found this press release. It includes this: "Intel persistent memory will be available in 2018 as part of an Intel Xeon Processor Scalable family refresh (codename: Cascade Lake)."

First I've heard of it. Anyone?

Thanks for the links. I like the quote, " a processor refresh of the Intel® Xeon® Scalable family platform, code-named Cascade Lake." But which processor are they refreshing?

The whole Xeon Scalable family apparently. They are currently called Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Used to be E5 and E7.

It's confusing, but I think the Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum line is the refresh that can use 3d Xpoint/Optane, etc.?

Except those are out right now, I think?

So maybe they will be refreshed in 2018?

Intel has to get rid of that ridiculous Bronze, Silver Gold, Platinum naming scheme.🙄

Who is going to proudly purchase a Bronze system, when it is being shoved in your face, that this is a low/lower end product?

Go back to a numbering system, which I predict they will do within 18 months.

Actually, I meant to ask which processor they are ascaling -- Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, Mocha Lake, Frappacino Lake, Ice Lake, the Ol' Fishin' Hole . . . ?

It's probably 14nm++ which is the Kaby Lake refresh. Broadwell/Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake are all 14nm brothers. 14nm, then 14nm+ and soon 14nm++ with Coffee Lake.
However, there is no solid info as to what process Cascade Lake will actually be. It could possibly be 10nm(Intel said data center chips would be the first to get the next new process), but I think it must still be 14nm++.
 
The "first on server" applies to 10++ (Ice Lake-SP, mid 2019) and 7 (Sapphire Rapids Server, mid 2020)

Intel said they didn't care anymore because the individual dies will be tiny due to using EMIB.
