Andrew Hillier and Ashley Rodrigue from Intel Corporation have a wealth of fantastic information for you on this episode of Densify Talks! They start off by sharing the benefits of the connection and partnership between Intel and Densify, highlighting how it benefits not only the two companies but also their customers.
Ashley discusses how Intel® Cloud Optimizer is revolutionizing cloud efficiency and tackling container-related inefficiencies. She also provides a closer look at Intel's cutting-edge 5th Gen Intel Xeon Processors and their performance improvements.
Andrew and Ashley talk about the regional availability of products and how Intel Foundry fits into that, reducing “hoarding” issues. Ashley had the privilege of touring one of Intel’s production facilities and shares the impact and benefits of in-house production.
They also discuss Intel and ASML’s partnership in High NA EUV technology, FinOps trends and future directions, and touch on containers and guardrails. However, they’re saving the bulk of that discussion for a future episode.
