CPU core sizing for servers

[AHafe]

Hi,

I want design server that will be virtualized using VMware and this server/s will carry multiple applications, all application will use 132 CPU core, so how can I size the xeon processor to meet the requirements?

Thanks for the information.

I can provide a link to compare processor features http://ark.intel.com/ http://ark.intel.com/, where you can get information about processor specifications and features.The best way to know if a program or application will work with an Intel® Xeon® processor would be contacting the software developer, you can obtain testing information and compatibility information.
