Cascade Lake (CSL) is Intel's successor to Skylake, a 14 nm microarchitecture for enthusiasts and servers. Cascade Lake is the "Optimization" phase as part of Intel's PAO model.
For desktop enthusiasts, Cascade Lake is branded Core i7, and Core i9 processors (under the Core X series). For scalable server class processors, Intel branded it as Xeon Bronze, Xeon Silver, Xeon Gold, and Xeon Platinum.

Release Dates
Cascade Lake is expected to be released in mid-2018.
Process Technology
Cascade Lake is fabricated on Intel's 3rd generation enhanced 14nm++ process.
Architecture
As with Skylake, Cascade Lake is also based on the Purley platform and is designed as a drop-in upgrade.
