Intel and Bitnami by VMware Elevate Cloud Performance

Intel-optimized cloud stacks from Bitnami take advantage of the latest acceleration technologies to boost cloud performance.

Why Intel and Bitnami: Optimized Cloud Stacks for Key Workloads

Most cloud software is tuned for one-size-fits-all portability and misses key hardware accelerations. Intel-optimized cloud stacks from Bitnami are built to take advantage of the latest performance innovations of 3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors. As a result, businesses can deploy a growing list of open source software, including NGINX, WordPress, and TensorFlow, and benefit from high performance, low cost, and fast results from fewer instances.
