Intel today introduced the new Intel Xeon D-2100 processor, a system-on-chip (SoC) processor architected to address the needs of edge applications and other data center or network applications constrained by space and power. The Intel Xeon D-2100 processor extends the record-breaking performance and innovation of the Intel Xeon Scalable platform from the heart of the data center to the network edge and web tier, where network operators and cloud service providers face the need to continuously grow performance and capacity without increasing power consumption.

Compared to Broadwell last gen -
TDP much higher (up to 110W)
Price a little bit higher
18-core option (probably special order for data centres)
4x 10Gbe instead of 2x
14x SATA instead of 6x
8x DIMM instead of 4x
AVX-512 support

Because of the much higher TDP, it has lost its appeal as a home machine for me. Probably won't see it much in sff 1U server cases or NAS cases any more because of the cooling required.

Also because of the support for 8x DIMM, I think we'll see more mATX boards than ITX boards this time round.
