The results were obtained under laboratory conditions, and not in an actual customer environment. IBM's internal workload studies are not benchmark applications, nor are they based on any benchmark standard. As such, customer applications, differences in the stack deployed, and other systems variations or testing conditions may produce different results and may vary based on actual configuration, applications, specific queries and other variables in a production environment. Private Cloud on Pure Systems v1.2 11

12 What Is Workload Density? Workload density refers to how many virtual machines can be run on a virtualized server Greater workload density reduces cost per workload Hardware cost is shared by more workloads Software license costs are shared by more workloads Reduces footprint required Workload density is determined by Size of the workload versus capacity of the physical server Variability of the workload demand Efficiency of the hypervisor Private Cloud on Pure Systems v1.2 12
