Server Scalability, Utilization, and Throughput

Throughput measures work– Requires performance objective

– Can be higher with discretionary

work

Factors that affect throughput– Cache or data coherence

– Contention for shared resources

– Path length and latency

– Balanced system design

Mixed workloads require a robust

platform design

Isolated capacity – Dedicated servers or partitions

– Passive clusters

– Separate production and

non-production servers

– Business decision

One of Several Industry Studies Confirming Power Availability


IBM Power Systems and Storage Competitive EducationRAC on Power Solution Benefits

Power RAC nodes deliver higher availability than x86 nodes

- Fewer forced failover situations (RAC failovers deliver less performance and higher potential for problems)

- Less potential for "phantom failures"

Power RAC nodes deliver greater performance

- Less nodes required for horizontal scaling (Power7 has 40% greater performance per node than x86)

- Lower resource per node required (lower hardware, software and support costs required)

- Virtual LAN communication between application and DB tiers (high speed communication)

Power RAC nodes drive significant resource efficiency through virtualization (PowerVM)

- PowerVM enables workload driven dynamic adding and removing of node resources

- React to changing workload requirements without over configuring node resources

- VIO server reduces LAN and SAN costs of RAC environment

- Dynamic sharing of RAC and non RAC workload resources running on the node

- VMware not supported so x86 nodes have dedicated resources

Power RAC clusters easier to maintain

- Fewer nodes required for performance and scalability

- Less software and hardware components to manage, upgrade and repair

Power RAC: Architecting for Lowest Total Solution Cost

- Higher performance per node equals less hardware and software acquisition costs

- PowerVM drives high resource efficiency, lowers node resource requirements and RAC software costs

- Lower cost for non production requirements (test, disaster recovery)

- Lower node failure potential equals less potential effect on production delivery

- Power7 RAC node has a declining cost trend so future requirements will cost less than today.

- Oracle RAC software has an increasing cost trend so Power nodes reduce that effect

POWER7 systems are over twice as good as POWER6 systems!

Twice the performance:Power 780 32-core performance per core is over twice

the Power 570 32-core

Twice the scaling:Power 770 and 780 both offer twice the number of

cores as the largest Power 570

Twice the capacity:Power 770 and 780 offer more than twice (~3 times) the

throughput of the largest Power 570

Twice the memory:- Over twice the physical memory of the Power 570

- Active Memory ExpansionTM enables up to twice the

effective memory compared to what is physically

installed

Twice the energy efficiency:Power 770 & 780 offer over twice the performance per

watt (up to 3 times) than the most efficient Power 570

Twice the resources for the same price:Buy twice the cores with the Power 770 and pay less

than a comparable POWER6 based Power 570


IBM Power Systems

System Performance – workload throughput per resource

Scalability – investment protection

Virtualization – do more with less

Dynamic – shift resource to workloads

High Resource Utilization - use more of what you own

Reliability – higher service levels

Deliverable Road Map

Significant improvements at lower cost

rPerf (Relative Performance) is an estimate of commercial processing performance relative to other IBM UNIX systems. It is derived from an IBM analytical model which uses characteristics from IBM internal workloads, TPC and SPEC benchmarks. The rPerf model is not intended to represent any specific public benchmark results and should not be reasonably used in that way. The model simulates some of the system operations such as CPU, cache and memory. However, the model does not simulate disk or network I/O operations .rPerf estimates are calculated based on systems with the latest levels of AIX and other pertinent software at the time of system announcement. Actual performance will vary based on application and configuration specifics. The IBM eServer pSeries 640 is the baseline reference system and has a value of 1.0. Although rPerf may be used to approximate relative IBM UNIX commercial processing performance, actual system performance may vary and is dependent upon many factors including system hardware configuration and software design and configuration. Note that the rPerf methodology used for the POWER6 systems is identical to that used for the POWER5 systems. Variations in incremental system performance may be observed in commercial workloads due to changes in the underlying system architecture.

All performance estimates are provided "AS IS" and no warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied by IBM. Buyers should consult other sources of information, including system benchmarks, and application sizing guides to evaluate the performance of a system they are considering buying. For additional information about rPerf, contact your local IBM office or IBM authorized reseller.


IBM Power Systems

Disclaimers

RPE2 (Relative Performance Estimate 2) is not a benchmark, but is a performance estimate from a third party IT research company, Ideas International (IDEAS). It is important that you understand what RPE2 is and how to use it for competitive server comparisons. RPE2 is entirely theoretical and is largely based on performance data from the manufacturers supplemented by published benchmark performance data. It is not designed to predict actual performance in a real-world environment.

RPE2 is the geometric mean of five industry standard (TPC-C, TPC-H, SPECjbb2005, SPECint_rate2006, SPECfp_rate2006) benchmarks and one ISV specific (SAP SD 2-Tier) benchmark. They are equally weighted in an arbitrary manner with each benchmark accounting for 16.7% of the total. When one or more of the six benchmarks was not run for a specific server model, IDEAS estimates the benchmark result using vendor supplied relative performance data. If performance is key to any final decision, then other performance data, such as actual workload benchmarking, should be used.

All performance estimates are provided "AS IS" and no warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied by IBM. Buyers should consult other sources of information, including system benchmarks, and application sizing guides to evaluate the performance of a system they are considering buying. For additional information about rPerf, contact your local IBM office or IBM authorized reseller.
