What does Intel want to do in the future? Big Data World of Water and Electricity

Tencent Digital (Zhou Shuo) At 0:00 on August 18th, Beijing time, Intel IDF will continue its schedule for the second day. Things related to the Internet of Things and the seventh-generation Core Core have become our focus. We see that data generation, explosions, connections, and calculations that Intel advocates once again occupy an important position. After all, this is a comprehensive service that requires technology accumulation and needs strength behind it. It is very difficult for other companies in the world to plan to swallow this potential market as early as Intel. What does Intel want to do in the future? I'm sure Intel wants data to participate in every stage of production, transmission, storage, processing, and analysis. This is similar to Tencent’s vision for Internet water and electricity.

In addition, it is regrettable that the seventh-generation Core product is still in the confidentiality agreement period, so this piece of information we will follow up in the follow-up.

Data will be inextricably linked with future life

By 2020, the number of smart devices connected to the Internet will reach 50 billion units. These devices will connect all aspects of life and become an integral part of life. Take the recent hot Pokemon Go as an example. Its emergence directly led to the soaring share price of Nintendo, which is considered from the commercial point of view. From the data point of view, the large amount of data generated by so many game users worldwide using mobile phone clients when playing the game undoubtedly brought Nintendo's unprecedented data collection and processing pressure to Pokemon Go. At the beginning of the server full-scale downtime. Twitch is the world's leading social video platform and community dedicated to gamers. The model is similar to domestic betta, panda live, and penguin live. Every month, this foreign platform has more than 100 million members watching game videos from 1.7 million anchors. This is also a huge amount of data explosion, to know how big the capacity of a single video data is.

In today's life, apart from mobile phones, people use a variety of smart devices in their daily lives. Smart wristband watches, smart homes, tablet computers, computers, and driverless vehicles all generate almost endless amounts of data. Imagine if it is becoming more and more difficult to find a picture you have saved on your computer today. This is only an individual. When it comes to the world, the data of the explosion will cover all aspects of life. The future will be inseparable from life, with the individual life of each individual.

At the same time, Intel is working hard to promote the promotion of RealSense 3D real sensor, which will help the traditional device to examine the world with a very different perspective and judge the world to understand the world. As Dr. Bowen Kok, the global leader of Intel’s RealSense project, said: “RealSense is like giving smart devices a pair of eyes.” The future of smart devices captures more 3D information, and smart devices are becoming more knowledgeable about the world. The amount of data will also be huge and substantial. In the same example, 4TB of data is generated on a connected car every day, and a networked factory can generate more than 1PT of data per day.

Data Value Brings Total Added Value

And such a huge amount of equipment accessing the network will inevitably produce huge and incalculable data volume. With the gradual increase of data collection and the gradual improvement of data quality, the data will gradually reflect higher and higher value. With the increase, data generation, connection exchange, and computation and processing costs will increase. The use, management, retrieval, and processing of data by individuals and companies will be a complicated and complicated project. So a series of processes around data will show unprecedented value.

At the IDF conference, the spokesperson also cited a case for data collection and classification analysis decisions to reflect the added value of data collection and processing. The IDF Congress demonstrated a complete system of fire source judgement and rapid police alert brought by Honeywell's cooperation with Intel. Through this system, firefighters can more quickly determine the structure of the building, burn the fire, and save lives and property as quickly as possible. Just as in the fields of medical industry, smart home, and car networking, data collection, connection, and analysis and processing will infiltrate all walks of life, and it will also bring unspeakable convenience to human life.

Data Intelligence Analysis Processing Decision - Artificial Intelligence Start

The search, processing, and analysis around the data will allow the machine to make decisions that are similar to human thinking. This can be an exciting beginning for artificial intelligence.

"Actually, artificial intelligence is not out of reach, but is at our side, because machines are gradually learning to perceive, learn, reason, perform, and adapt to the real world. By amplifying human capabilities, automating boring or dangerous tasks As well as solving some of the most challenging social issues, it is inspiring industry innovations and changing our lives in astonishingly innovative ways.

In contrast, machine learning is the fastest growing field in artificial intelligence, and it is an important calculation method to expand the application and development of artificial intelligence. At the heart of machine learning is the use of computer algorithms to make predictions based on data, allowing the machine to act or think, performing specific functions without explicit instructions. Deep learning is the branch of machine learning and is a new and rapidly growing field. Deep learning uses neural networks to understand more complex unstructured data and has made breakthroughs in such areas as image recognition, speech recognition, natural language processing, and other complex tasks.

Intel will participate in each phase of the data

In response to these various aspects, although Intel did not directly express it, for Intel, all they have to do is to participate in each phase of the data and become an important supporter of each phase of the data.

Data Generation: From this perspective, Intel CPU-based PC products and smart devices are everywhere in the world, and they all become sources of data in the new era. Intel’s ongoing efforts to promote RealSense is a major attempt by Intel to generate data. RealSense will allow traditional smart devices the ability to self-perceive a three-dimensional world. In the past, this dimension of data generation, Intel has accumulated for decades. In the future, Intel will undoubtedly continue to invest in it.

Data transmission: At the IDF conference, Intel announced that the silicon photonics 100G transceiver was formally put into commercial use, which means that the two most important invented silicon integrated circuits and semiconductor lasers of the 20th century were merged. Through this set of transceiver equipment, silicon's Size and technology capabilities fully utilize the bandwidth and distance advantages of fiber optic connections. It will enable leading cloud service providers such as Microsoft Azure to use the power of light to transmit a large amount of information at a speed of 100 Gbps from thousands of kilometers away on fiber optic cables using optical signals. This has been a daredevil in the past in practical commercial environments. imagination.

In addition, for wireless 5G network transmission, Intel has high-profile deployment on several IDFs and actively communicates with network operators to expand their possibilities. Intel is uniquely positioned to support 5G end-to-end through solutions (from devices to networks and the cloud) and supports new and deeper collaboration with industry leaders from device manufacturers to network operators.

Take AT&T as an example, they have begun to use servers, cloud, and virtualization technologies, and by further working with Intel, they continue to accelerate the development and deployment of new services and realizing cash in the cloud and the entire infrastructure to lay the foundation for the delivery of cutting-edge features for the next generation. basis.

Data Analysis and Processing: Intel owns Xeon series server processors. Xeon processors enable data scientists to train complex machine algorithms faster than GPUs and run more extensive workloads than GPUs. The IDF conference Intel announced that it will focus on the next-generation Intel Xeon Phi processor product family for high-performance machine learning and artificial intelligence use! Codenamed Knights Mill, it is optimized for scale-out analysis and will include key enhancements for deep learning training.

In addition, Intel previously acquired the deep learning company Nervana Systems. Its advantages in silicon technology will strengthen the Intel artificial intelligence product portfolio and enhance the performance and total performance of Intel Xeon and Intel Xeon Phi processors in deep learning. Cost of ownership.

In summary, if you ask me what Intel is going to do in the future, just like our vision for doing water and electricity on the Internet, Intel clearly hopes that existing technologies and future sustainable deployment will play an important role in each stage of data and become the future. Big data world of water and electricity.
