AMD EPYC 7282 processor 2.8 GHz 64 MB L3

2nd Generation AMD EPYC are a new breed of server processors that raise the bar for data centers

AMD EPYC is the industry leader in performance across industry standard benchmarks, with 80 world records to date.

'Reliable performance to propel your modern data center workloads.' Hardened at the Core' protection guards against side-channel attacks, and EPYC's secure encrypted virtualization features keep your data secure.

The processor's agility enables you to easily and cost-effectively manage new deployments and changing workloads with the system resources you require.

Performance Leadership

Almost everything runs better on AMD EPYC 7282 Series servers.

Regardless of whether you are running enterprise applications, virtualized and cloud computing environments, software-defined infrastructure, high-performance computing, or data analytic applications.

EPYC processor-based systems lead industry benchmarks for integer, floating-point, virtualization, database, and HPC performance.

The AMD EPYC 7742 processor has set new world records, cementing AMD's position as THE performance leader.

The secret is under the hood

With AMD EPYC 7282 processors, AMD Infinity Architecture, a hybrid multi-die architecture, reaches new heights.

The AMD Infinity Architecture now separates two streams: eight dies for processor cores and one I/O die for security and communication outside the processor.

EPYC's die design is not monolithic, allowing it to deliver cutting-edge process technology for CPU cores while allowing I/O circuitry to develop at its own pace. As a result, new capabilities can be brought to market faster.

This has enabled EPYC to race to market leadership and continue to innovate in the future.

AMD is the first company to commercialize an x86 processor based on 7nm technology

The result of double the core density and optimizations that improve instructions per cycle is 4x the Floating-Point performance of the first generation AMD EPYC.

The 2nd generation AMD EPYC can deliver the same performance while consuming half the power.

The EPYC in numbers

The AMD EPYC processor was designed for data centers that rely on CPU performance.

Highly parallel workloads have more cores to work with in everything from oil and gas exploration to in-memory databases to big data analytics to production rendering to standard data center applications.

AMD EPYC 7282 processors range from 8 to 64 cores (16 to 128 threads per socket). No other x86 vendor in the market today supports such core density.

Be at the top of the security chain

The AMD EPYC processor is 'Hardened at the Core' and includes advanced security features.

It is the first server CPU with a built-in and dedicated security processor, laying the groundwork for Secure Boot, Secure Memory Encryption (SME), and Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV).

As a result, you can focus less on data risk and more on running your business.

Allowing software to boot without being corrupted

The AMD EPYC processor secure root of trust is intended to ensure that the initial BIOS software boot is free of corruption. You can cryptographically verify that your entire software stack boots without corruption on a cloud server or services of your choice in virtualized environments.

Limit internal vulnerabilities

Because any data obtained is encrypted, attacks on the integrity of main memory (such as cold-boot attacks) are prevented with encrypted memory.

High-performance encryption engines embedded in memory channels aid in performance.

All of this is done without modifying your application software.

Keeping virtual and cloud infrastructure secure

By encrypting each virtual machine with one of up to 509 unique encryption keys known only to the processor, 2nd Gen EPYC helps protect privacy and integrity.

This helps to protect your data's confidentiality even if a malicious virtual machine gains access to your virtual machine's memory or a compromised hypervisor gains access to a guest virtual machine.

All-inclusive feature set

AMD takes pride in maintaining open lines of communication with its partners and customers.

This entails having a "all-in" feature set that isn't designed to trick customers into paying more.
With AMD EPYC, you can choose the processor that best fits your application's needs without worrying about missing features or capabilities.

Whatever number of cores you select, you'll have enough I/O, memory, and memory bandwidth to complete your tasks.

PCIe 4.0 readiness first to market

The AMD EPYC is the first and only x86-architecture server processor that supports PCIe 4.

PCIe 4.0 provides twice the I/O performance of PCIe 3.0. You can use 128 lanes of I/O to double the network bandwidth that connects HPC clusters and meets voracious east-west bandwidth needs.

In virtualized environments, you can connect faster to GPU accelerators, NVMe drives, and even use integrated disk controllers to access spinning disks without the typical bottleneck of a PCIe RAID controller.

Compatibility with X86

You can trust AMD EPYC 7282 generation processors because almost all software will simply work. We collaborate with the open source community and major software vendors to ensure that your applications and enabling software work flawlessly with EPYC.

Another reason why top cloud providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle Cloud offer services based on AMD EPYC processors is the extensive ecosystem of open tools and libraries.

Advantage of a 1-Socket EPYC server

To compensate for a resource imbalance, traditional CPUs must typically scale up to a two-socket server.

With AMD EPYC, 1-socket servers can meet the majority of your workload requirements, allowing you to increase density while lowering capital, power, and cooling costs.

With 'per-socket software' like VMware vSphere or vSAN, you can save up to 50% on licensing costs with a 1-socket EPYC server.
