Web hosting provider and data center operator Liquid Web announced on Monday that it has implemented a set of solutions using Intel’s new Clovertown CPU technology.

LiquidWeb says it has added the Clovertown series to its Enterprise product line, with an introductory monthly price of $409.

The Clovertown processor uses Intel’s 65-nanometer manufacturing process, says Intel, delivering 1.5 times the performance of recent dual-core offerings, and 4 times the performance of the company’s single-core Xeon processors. Liquid Web’s Clovertown servers are designed with two quad core processors, providing eight processing cores per server.

“Quad-core processors contain four processing cores, residing on one chip, that perform calculations on four streams of data on each chip,” says Jeremy Hill, Liquid Web senior system engineer, “thereby significantly increasing efficiency and speed in server based environments. Hosting environments are very effectively positioned to take advantage of such enhancements given the threaded nature of server applications and diversity of services often deployed in hosting server environments.”
