1 2011 INDIA PARTNER SUMMIT Virtualization ti wave 2 Ranganath Krishna, Solutions specialist, Hitachi Data Systems

2 New Wave-New Order Year 2009 number of s overtook the number of physical servers shipped 97% of customers run ware in production (ware survey 2009) 55% of ware customers run more than 50s (survey 2009) density increasing from 10 to 20

3 Agenda What s in there for you? Be ready for Wave 2 Customer expectations from server consolidation has changed Hitachi integration formula in ware environment Reference architecture and case study

4 What s in there for you? Trusted advisor to the customer Beyond the mundane server consolidation. Unique solution in the market There is no need to fight competition. Demonstrable ROI. Big services drag.

5 THE 2 ND WAVE OF SERVER VIRTUALIZATION ADOPTION IS COMING The Diffusion of Innovation Sounds complicated, but it is simple - Technology is adopted in waves - The main period of adoption, and therefore revenue, is in Wave % 15-20% 15-20% Wave Wave Wave

6 Expectation from virtualization has changed. Capex Savings ware >> density. >> uptime and availability. Virtualize mission critical apps (target to virtualize 100% of applications from current 80%) Opex Savings More scalable system to simplify. Reducing complexity journey towards software mainframe. More efficiency. HDS Opex Savings Only 3D scaling storage. Built from mainframe support system. Proven ROI, capacity reclamation,re-use of existing assets.. Capex Savings 20% more s by integration. 100% guaranteed data availability. Mission critical applications of banking, telecom etc. apps.

7 vsphere OS 4.0 Enabled the Ecosystem What does this mean? Customers have the choice of best-of-breed technologies Customer can leverage the full capability of their storage and ESX environment ware s Native API Engine

8 The Hitachi advantage Hardware Thin Provisioned DKs FS Active-active Symmetric, Internal Switch Matrix vstorage API for Array Integration Dynamic Tiering Hitachi Dynamic Provisioning Dynamic Provisioning Hitachi Dynamic Tiering

9 THE HITACHI ADVANTAGE THE CONTROLLER Did You Know? Dual controller systems are susceptible to ESX host workload imbalances, which require administrators to spend time manually diagnosing and mitigating load imbalances. AMS 2000 Industry Differentiator VSP Virtual Storage Director Hitachi Dynamic Load Balancing Controller: Virtually eliminates controller bottlenecks found in traditional asymmetric controller designs Increase performance, capacity, and connectivity tightly coupled through a global cache to meet increasing server demands

10 The power of vstorage api for array integration (vaai) Write Same, Zero (Block Zeroing) Eliminates redundant and repetitive write commands, which means less I/O for common tasks Full Copy (Xcopy) Leverages storage array s ability to mass copy, snapshot and move blocks via SCSI commands. Hardware-assisted Locking Stop locking LUNs; start locking blocks only. Offloads SCSI commands to storage array. *Note: VAAI is currently supported on the Hitachi Adaptable Modular 2000 family. Support for Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform is expected this year.

11 A Closer Look at HARDWARE LOCKING OFFLOAD ESX ESX ESX ESX Files Files Files Files Reduces SCSI reservation conflicts Locks are required for power on operations (e.g., VDI boot storms) Growing snapshots or delta disks requires locks Growing thin provisioned DK disk requires locks vmotion requires locks Could increase the number of s per ESX server by a factor of 10 Saving server footprint and SAN ports Requires scale-up storage capability

12 VAAI Benefits on Hitachi Storage VAAI FEATURE Full copy PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT WHY IT MATTERS 18% faster Speeds up cloning and storage vmotion Allows for faster copies of virtual machines Write same (block zeroing) 85% faster performance Speeds provisioning of new s Key to supporting large scale ware or VDI deployments Makes an EagerZeroedThick DK storage thin friendly when used with Hitachi Dynamic Provisioning Hardware-assisted locking (SCSI reservation lock) 25% to 35% performance improvement Removes SCSI reservation conflicts Enables faster locking Improves density and performance Simplifies storage configuration Enables 2TB volumes Faster deployment Eliminates boot storms Enables scaling

13 Hardware accelerated thin provisioning DK PROVISIONING + BLOCK ZEROING + HITACHI DYNAMIC PROVISIONING A new 30GB eagerzeroedthick DK file was created on a Dynamic Provisioning volume. EAGERZEROEDTHICK AND DYNAMIC PROVISIONING POOL STORAGE VIRTUALIZATION With VAAI disabled, the virtual disk consumed 31GB of storage capacity on the Dynamic Provisioning pool. With VAAI enabled, it consumed only 1GB of storage capacity on the Dynamic Provisioning pool.

14 Problem or Pain Need to tier FS data stores for cost savings and performance Managing and moving data to take advantage of tiers is operationally complex, time consuming and hard to optimize Capability Optimize the use of multiple storage tiers for a single FS data store without t complicated administrator intensive capacity design Optimize without performance tuning efforts Eliminate the burden of tiered storage management. Hitachi Dynamic Tiering Simplify vsphere Operations Dynamic Provisioning Virtual Volume HDT Pool Frequent Accesses Infrequent References TIER 0 SSD TIER 1 SAS TIER 2 SATA Single FS + Hitachi Dynamic Tiering = Simplification

15 All virtualized assets Server and storage managed as one common pool Existing storage externalized for ESX clusters reaching capacity or performance limits Nondisruptive migration of entire FS volumes between external an internal storage Single set of management tools for heterogeneous storage for ware Capacity management Heterogeneous connectivity Central control Controller based virtualization ti External storage takes advantage of all features of the USP V, VSP switched architecture. SRM, SRA block based replication Hardware accelerated thin provisioning i i Consolidation and Virtualized Storage Hit hi Vi t l St Pl tf i fi t t ff f ll VAAI t f Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform is first to offer full ware VAAI support for heterogeneous storage for 100+ external storage devices
