3 IT Infrastructure Challenges IT Business Drivers Long process of planning, provisioning, deployment, life-cycle management Vertical systems: Less efficient; lack of scalability and elasticity Performance bottleneck, hinders application performance I/O Bottleneck TCO: 60% of IT resource is on infrastructure HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 3

4 What we learnt from Internet companies GFS Big Table Map-Reduce Cassandra Open Compute platform Highly reliable infrastructure can be built with: - Distributed and uniform design - High level of performance, reliability, scalability and resilience - Open (commodity) hardware HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 4

5 Infrastructure Transformation On The Way OS OS OS OS Cloud OS Unified Management OS Storage Network Compute Storage Network Cloud OS Focusing on solving infrastructure challenges! Compute Network Storage Converged Infrastructure Pre-integrated, Pre-validated, Optimized HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 5

6 Integration vs. Convergence Computing Node Latency Computing Node FC Switch ~0.5-8 ms ~0.5 ms Infiniband Controller SAS bus <100us Computing/Storage Node PCIe Integrated system HDD/SSD PCIe SSD HDD/SSD Architectural change Computing and Storage closer

7 Paradigm Shift in Converged Infrastructure Design Proprietary Hardware Central Storage Scale-up Open Hardware Distributed Storage Scale-out Reliability at Components System Level Reliability

8 Huawei FusionCube Architectural Overview Compute CPU/RAM Compute CPU/RAM Compute CPU/RAM FusionManager 56G IB/RoCE/10GE Cloud OS Hybrid Computing Hybrid Computing Hybrid Node Hybrid Computing Scale-out Distributed Storage Cache Cache Cache PCIe-SSD Disk PCIe-SSD Disk PCIe-SSD Disk

9 Design Advantages of Converged Infrastructure Distributed storage technology, scale-out, high performance Operation and maintenance simplifed by unified managment CI High speed, low latency networking technology High performance, high reliable SSD technology Advances in HW technologies Simple Agile Performance inic Card Compression GPU Large RAM

10 Performance Aspect of Converged Infrastructure SAP HANA Sybase-IQ Oracle RAC 1 st place 2 nd place FusionCube Distributed Storage USD$/QPHh@10 00GB QPHh@1000GB Processors/Cores/ Threads/Type: 8/32/128 IBM POWER7 4.1GHz, 256KB L2/32MB L3 cache 8/48/48/AMD Opteron GHz, 512 KB L3 cache per core 8/64/128 Intel Xeon CPU 2.70GHz RAM 512 GB 384 GB 336GB*4 < 200 μs IO latency 800K IOPS ~40GB/s IO Throughput Storage 52 x 69GB SAS SSD; 3 x 146GB SAS HDD 4 MSA2324 with a total of 96, 146GB disks 8, 146GB internal disks Network Special PCI card 1 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter 8 * 2.4T SSD 56G IB

11 Key Takeaways Convergence is happening! CI It solves most of IT infrastructure challenges It is cost effective and flexible enough Distributed system can reach very high performance, especially for data processing Converged infrastructure is evolving to add network convergence, management convergence, security convergence etc.
