Media processing is one of the hottest and fastest growing applications in the cloud industry especially for video and image processing, which makes up as much as 70% of Global VNI IP network traffic, and server computing resources. Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) have been devoted to improving the computing servers’ efficiency, especially for the media processing, analysis, searching, and streaming related workloads. This paper introduces the new Advanced Vector extensions AVX-512 technology of the Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors and their contributions to improving the media cloud processing performance. This paper will also illustrate the enabling methodology of the new SIMD (Single Instruction Multi Data) instruction for media cloud applications including video, image, and further media deep learning applications.
