8 Reliability, Availability, Serviceability (RAS) Enables a new class of hardware/software capabilities Advanced error recovery/reporting CPU and memory hot add Machine Check Architecture Intelligent recovery from CPU/memory errors Enhanced error reporting for PCI devices (PCI-AER & APEI) DIF/DIX: End-to-end data integrity checking Rapid file system recovery (up to 10x faster than RHEL 5) E.G. Fsck for 1TB filesystem (45 million files) RHEL5 Ext3 = 1 hour, RHEL6 Ext4 = 6 minutes. 8

9 Lower Power Consumption Power consumption % Reduction 20% Reduction 0 RHEL 5.4 RHEL 5.5 RHEL 6 Idle power consumption (W), measured on Nehalem-EP 9

10 Policy driven power management Advanced kernel and sub-systems Power savings from CPU, disk, network Designed for minimal power with fewer interrupts Tuned - adaptive tuning daemon Latency policy scripts Provides a variety of power tuning profiles Powertop Identifies power hungry applications and system services 10

11 Resource Management Ability to manage large system resources effectively Control Group (Cgroups) for CPU/Memory/Network/Disk Benefit: guarantee Quality of Service & dynamic resource allocation Ideal for managing any multi-application environment From back ups to the Cloud 11

12 Manage System Resources to Scale out w/ Dynamic Scaling Resource Management with cgroups reduces application or VM contention and improves throughput RHEL6 Database Perf w/ Cgroups 12.5% performance improvement OLTP (k-tpm) instance 4 instance cgroup 0 12

13 Application development and production platform Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the development and deployment platform of choice with: Efficient, scalable, and robust operating system, certified security Flexible deployment options on physical and virtualized platforms A wide variety of powerful development languages backed by excellent debugging and tuning tools. 13

14 Enterprise Manageability. Red Hat provides control for the data center operations to centralize and automate common management functions so your environment can scale Intelligent, flexible provisioning Integration with common directories Scaling up provisioning, auditing and reporting with Smart Management modules & RHN Satellite 14

15 Interoperability and Deployment Installation using Workload Profiles/Personalities Minimal install option provides minimal security attack surface Microsoft Interoperability Client support for Windows 2008 R2 active directory File/Print (Samba) file sharing Ipv6 & Windows 7 domain support Encryption between client & server Enterprise Management Auditd for centralized reporting ABRT for centralized incident analysis Key Escrow: secure storage & recovery of encryption keys 15

16 Designed-in Security Making security comprehensive, consistent and portable Technologies across the stack including firewall, identity and fine grained access control Tailoring your environment Enhanced installation options, include minimal install Update, audit & report with RHN Satellite Power of SELinux applied to any application or guest Policy driven security More control than whitelisting - Control what applications, process or guests can & can not access or execute Security in the Operating Platform spans physical, virtual or cloud 16

17 SELinux: From Applications to Guests Applying security labels to individual guest virtual machines and their resources Guest Isolation achieved with SELinux Mandatory Access Controls (MAC) Protect against untrusted Guest VM Protect against Host misconfiguration Prevents unauthorized access of Guests/Host Builds on existing, proven security mechanisms & controls 17

18 RED HAT ENTERPRISE VIRTUALIZATION 18 INTERNAL ONLY PRESENTER NAME

19 Integrated Virtualization is the platform for enterprise virtualization. Virtualization is a foundation for data center planning. Red Hat Enterprise Linux is an excellent virtualization host, and is designed to be a superior guest on any of the major hypervisors. Leverages built-in kernel features for networking storage related to guest acceleration. 19

20 Virtualization Deliver enhancements to make virtualization ubiquitous Performance: Commonly 85%-95% of bare metal, including I/O bound workloads Scalability: Host: 128/4096 cores; 2TB/64TB RAM Guest: 64vCPU; 256 GB RAM Advanced capabilities: Live Migration; CPU/Mem resource control Memory page sharing (KSM); SR-IOV; VT-D; SVirt security Hypervisor integrated into the Linux kernel All features accrue to Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, which also provides sophisticated management capabilities 20

21 Virtualization ALL SPECvirt_sc2010 results published to date use RHEL as the guest / VM Operating System! RHEL 6 shows 29% better SPECvirt performance than RHEL 5.5 (KVM) on the same hardware! "SPECvirt_sc2010 Benchmark Results " December

25 Few Cloud Questions? Marketing Bubble? IT 2.0 or Lock-in 2.0? Evolution or Revolution? Is it Safe? EU Legal implications? 25 INTERNAL ONLY PRESENTER NAME

26 Choice Portability Flexibility 26

27 WHAT DOES A CLOUD PROVIDE? A Cloud provides an abstraction layer to manage scale and complexity Self service Abstracted, elastic resources Location-independent storage & services Users, Groups Accounting API's, Drivers, Tools Federation Cloud: Virtualization: Bare metal: Resource abstraction, Second Abstraction maps cloud to virtual resources Hardware abstraction, First Abstraction maps virtual to physical resources Full access, No Abstraction 27 INTERNAL ONLY PRESENTER NAME

28 PHASE 1: CONSOLIDATE VIRTUALIZE YOUR SERVERS Virtualize your physical hardware to achieve higher utilization, consolidation, and flexibility. Virtualization increases the utilization of physical servers and provides a foundation for cloud computing. PHASE 2: AUTOMATE BUILD A PRIVATE CLOUD As you expand your use of virtualization, build a private cloud to manage the scale and complexity. A private cloud abstracts multiple instances of virtual resources into elastic pools of computation with self-provisioning and scalable services. PHASE 3: UTILITY ADD A PUBLIC CLOUD As you expand your use of cloud computing, add public cloud providers delivered as a utility to increase capacity and lower costs. Red Hat's cloud architecture lets you manage and integrate various virtualization systems and public cloud providers together. This allows you to leverage public cloud computing as a utility. 28 INTERNAL ONLY PRESENTER NAME
