The platform performance delivered within the high-core-count Cooper Lake processors will leverage the capabilities built into the Intel Xeon Platinum 9200 series, which today is gaining momentum among the world’s most demanding HPC and AI customers, including HLRN*, Advania*, and others.
“We are excited about the early customer deployments of the Intel Xeon Platinum 9200 series that we introduced as part of our 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor family. Bringing a 56-core processor into our mainline Intel Xeon Scalable processor family in the next generation will further expand our ability to address customer needs for the highest levels of performance in artificial intelligence, high performance computing and high density infrastructure.”
–Lisa Spelman, vice president and general manager of Data Center Marketing, Intel Corporation
What This Processor Will Offer:The next-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor platform (codename Cooper Lake) will deliver twice the processor core count (up to 56 cores), higher memory bandwidth, and higher AI inference and training performance compared to the standard Intel Xeon Platinum 8200 platforms. Cooper Lake will be the first x86 processor to deliver built-in AI training acceleration through new bfloat16 support added to Intel® Deep Learning Boost® (Intel® DL Boost®). Cooper Lake will have platform compatibility with the upcoming 10nm Ice Lake processor.
Why It’s Important: For more than 20 years, Intel Xeon processors have delivered the platform and performance leadership that gives data center customers the flexibility to pick the right solution for their computing needs. Next-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Cooper Lake) build off Intel’s uninterrupted server processor track record by delivering leadership performance for customers’ real-world workloads and business application needs.
Learn More: Intel Xeon Platinum 9200 processors are available for purchase today as part of a pre-configured systems from select OEMs, including Atos*, HPE*, Lenovo*, Penguin Computing*, Megware* and authorized Intel resellers. Learn more information about the Intel Xeon Platinum 9200 processors.

"Announced" is a bit premature in this case. The news bits is that Cooper Lake CPUs will offer up to 56 cores and will be socketable and will fit same mobos as Ice Lake Xeons, but no products were announced. The 9200 Series Intel is refererring to is actually Cascade Lake and was already released in April.
