The official Intel website has listed a series of new Cascade Lake processors for the Xeon family of servers. Among the processors included in the list are the Cascade Lake-SP and Cascade Lake-AP series, which will target the HPC and data center markets.
Intel Cascade Lake-AP will be the first "Advanced Processor" chip
The two families of processors listed by Intel are part of the Cascade Lake family manufactured at 14nm. As far as we know, the Cascade Lake family not only reaches data centers, it also aspires to the ultra-high-end desktop market with a new product line Intel is creating. Basically, we are seeing that Xeon Platinums is being redesigned for very enthusiastic users.
The chips listed by Intel
- Intel Cascade Lake-AP "Advanced" (BGA 5903) Intel Cascade Lake-SP (LGA 3647) Intel Cascade Lake-X "HEDT Consumer Family" (LGA 3647)
Other lineups expected to replace the Cascade Lake family have also appeared and include:
- Ice Lake Xeon-D (BGA 2579) Ice Lake-SP (LGA 4189)
Both the Cascade Lake-SP and Cascade Lake-X processors will be compatible with the LGA 3647 socket. Both families will have 6 channel memory support and we can also expect faster DDR4-2800 memory support (native). The Cascade Lake-SP processors will be the first to offer compatibility with Optane DIMMs, which would be available later this year.
I heard a rumor of a Xeon Advanced Processor which was an MCM. I thought it was ICL-SP based but could it be Cascade Lake based?

Regarding Cascade Lake-AP, the new family will be the first to use the “Advanced Processor” badge with MCM (Multi-Chip-Module) focus. Cascade Lake's line of advanced processors is trying to recover against EPYC AMD, which offers more cores, more memory, and more PCIe tracks while maintaining Intel's IPC level.
The price would be really high for these chips and the new CPUs will be packaged in the BGA 5903 format only. We should just wait for them next year.

The Intel Xeon “Cascade Lake” family of scalable processors will arrive in 2018 with support for Optane DIMMs.
Intel cascade lake will support up to 3.84tb of RAM per socket
Intel is working on the final touches of its new wave of Xeon Scalable processors based on the new Cascade Lake architecture. These new Intel Cascade Lake will come with a six-channel DDR4 memory controller, which will allow up to 3.84 TB of memory to be mounted per socket.
