2 1. Overview of NEC PCIe SSD Appliance for Microsoft SQL Server Page 2 NEC Corporation 2014
3 Background of the solution (1/2) (Storage Capacity) 1PB Issue#1: Performance gap between memory and storage Customers are faced with performance bottleneck from performance gap between in-box memory / storage and external disks. Performance tuning is getting more complicated, needs many external storages and host bus adapters to provide enough IO bandwidth for high-performance DWH/BI system. Huge Performance gap 100TB 10TB 1TB CPU Cache SW visibility gap D PCIe SSD SAS SSD SAS Disk Array SATA Disk Array <ns <1us <150us ~2ms ~8ms ~20ms (Access latency) Page 3 NEC Corporation 2014
4 Background of solution (2/2) Memory Controller Memory Controller Issue#2: CPU, Memory and IO Balanced Scalability Customer s expectation: Avoid excessive initial investment, System performance should scale up seamlessly by adding HW resources without modifying system (DB) configuration. Customer s pain : Intel QPI* architecture The latest QPI architecture-based processors have an integrated memory controller and IO controller on die. The architecture requires extra CPU sockets, even if customer just wants to have much IO slots (or memory). The extra CPU sockets contribute to increased power consumption and system cost QPI QPI QPI CPU IO Controller PCIe slot PCIe slot PCIe slot QPI based CPU * QPI = Quick Path Interconnect (Interconnect between CPUs) Rich IO slots of NEC Express5800 Scalable Enterprise Server and PCIe SSD (server-mounted flash storage) will solve those issues NEC PCIe SSD Appliance for Microsoft SQL Server is the answer Page 4 NEC Corporation 2014
