Identify Multi-Chip Module CPUs
Hello,
due to oracle licensing we need to identify Multi-Chip Module CPUs from Intel/AMD.
We would like to have an API from which we could query the cpu information. I should mention that we have over 500 devices in our company (Laptops, Workstations, Servers, etc). So an API would really be the best way.

FaRHScom,
To identify Multi-Chip Module (MCM) CPUs from Intel and AMD and query CPU information across your devices, you can use APIs provided by both manufacturers. Here are some options:
Intel
Intel provides the Intel® Processor Identification Utility and the Intel® ARK API for querying detailed processor information. You can use these tools to get information such as the number of cores, memory details, power requirements, and whether the CPU is a single-chip or multi-chip module.
AMD
AMD offers the AMD Product Security and AMD EPYC API for querying processor details. These APIs provide comprehensive information about AMD processors, including MCM configurations.
General API Solutions
For a cross-platform solution, you can use tools like BigFix or custom scripts to query CPU information from your devices. These tools can help you gather detailed hardware information across your infrastructure.
From what I am seeing those details aren't normally advertised by the CPUs themselves, which normally just displays whatever the CPU says to, so your best bet would be to just inventory it and then have a list of what procs have those specs and then compare.
Let me know if this helps.
