Intel today extended its field programmable gate array (FPGA) acceleration platform portfolio with the addition of the new Intel Programmable Acceleration Card (PAC) with Intel Stratix 10 SX FPGA, Intel’s most powerful FPGA. This high-bandwidth card leverages the Acceleration Stack for Intel Xeon CPU with FPGAs, providing data center developers a robust platform to deploy FPGA-based accelerated workloads. Hewlett Packard Enterprise* will be the first OEM to incorporate the Intel PAC with Stratix 10 SX FPGA along with the Intel Acceleration Stack for Intel Xeon Scalable processor with FPGAs into its server offering.
“We’re seeing a growing market for FPGA-based accelerators, and with Intel’s new FPGA solution, more developers – no matter their expertise – can adopt the tool and benefit from workload acceleration. We plan to use the Intel Stratix 10 PAC and acceleration stack in our offerings to enable customers to easily manage complex, emerging workloads,” said Bill Mannel, vice president and general manager, HPC and AI Group, HPE.
与以前宣布的Intel Arria 10 FPGA宣布的Intel PAC一样，具有Stratix 10 SX FPGA的新Intel Pac支持了设计合作伙伴的生态系统，可提供IP以加速各种应用程序工作负载。具有Stratix 10 SX FPGA的Intel Pac是用于内联处理和内存密集型工作负载的较大形状卡，如流分析和视频转码。虽然带有Arria 10 FPGA的较小的外形Intel Pac非常适用于回溯，数据库加速度和图像处理工作负载。
As the demands for big data and artificial intelligence (AI) increase, the reprogrammable technology of the FPGA meets the processing requirements and changing workloads of data center applications. With reconfigurable logic, memory and digital signal processing blocks, FPGAs can be programmed to execute any type of function with high throughput and real-time performance, making them ideal for many critical enterprise and cloud applications.
The acceleration stack for Intel Xeon CPU with Intel FPGAs works with industry-leading OS, virtualization and orchestration software partners, providing a common interface for software developers to get faster time to revenue, simplified management and access to a growing ecosystem of acceleration workloads.
What the Solution Includes:
- Intel-validated Intel Programmable Acceleration Card (PAC) with Intel Stratix 10 SX FPGA.
- Production-grade FPGA Interface Manager (FIM) to which Intel and partner AFUs are connected.
- Acceleration Stack for Intel Xeon CPU with FPGAs, including a common set of APIs and open-source drivers that work seamlessly with industry-leading OS, virtualization and orchestration software across the portfolio of Intel programmable acceleration cards.
- 支持本机，网络附加的工作负载;初始合作伙伴，包括自适应微针和冰上计算，更多地到来。
- Workloads available through acceleration workload storefront for ease of evaluation.
