Protects system investment by enabling extended product availability for embedded customers. Along with a strong ecosystem of hardware and software vendors, including members of the Intel® Embedded Alliance (intel.com/go/eca), Intel helps to cost-effectively meet development challenges and speed time-to-market. Delivers optimum efficiency by adapting performance to embedded application needs. Boosts performance for specific workloads by increasing processor frequency. Delivers bandwidth improvement for data-intensive applications. Enables simultaneous multi-threading within each processor core, up to two threads per core, or up to eight threads per processor; reduces computational latency, making optimal use of every clock cycle. Large on-die shared Last Level Cache reduces latency to data, improving performance and power efficiency. Automated energy-efficiency capabilities reduce power consumption. Reduces idle processor cores to near zero power when not in use to help conserve power and lower operating costs. Adjusts system power consumption based on real-time processor loads. Remote management, flexible virtualization and enhanced security enable solutions that are reliable, trusted, and cost-effective. The latest remote management and maintenance capabilities enable IT professionals to query, fix, and protect networked embedded devices, even when they're powered off, not responding or have software issues. As part of Intel vPro technology, Intel AMT helps perform remote asset tracking and checks the presence of management agents virtually anytime. Also, devices can be remotely turned on/off to reduce energy consumption during non-peak operating times. Speeds the transfer of platform control and movement of data between the virtual machine monitor (VMM) and other platform agents (including guest OSs and I/O devices). By lowering the workload on the VMM, this technology addresses many embedded system design challenges, like migrating legacy software, increasing real-time performance, and making applications more secure. Protects embedded devices and virtual environments against rootkit and other system level attacks. Using an industry-standard TPM 1.2 to store keys and other protected data, this portion of Intel vPro technology boots the BIOS, operating system and software into a "trusted" execution state, verifying the integrity of the virtual machine and protecting the platform from unauthorized access. 3
