PDW Region Base Scale Unit: HP ConvergedSystem for Microsoft APS Active Server Kit (HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 server) (2)+ HP ConvergedSystem 300 for Microsoft APS Storage Kit (D6000) (1) What's New Updated with the HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 Server to deliver high-performance, low energy consumption, improved uptime, and increased density. Redesigned with HP 5900 series switches providing a full-featured T (Top of Rack) design to provide high throughput, and additional features simplify the upgrade process. Updated HP Support Pack Utility Suite, a unique set of tools designed to simplify and reduce the costs for operational support and maintenance tasks. The Support Pack includes tools to run validation and diagnostics on the HP ConvergedSystem 300 for Microsoft Analytics and help simplify updates and several other maintenance tasks. At A Glance is a dedicated data warehouse appliance offering in-memory performance, massive parallel scale-out query processing (MPP), and Hadoop, that allows users to scale up to much higher levels of performance and capacity than single SMP systems can offer. HP and Microsoft have engineered this joint offering based on multiple HP ProLiant servers (working in parallel through an MPP software layer to function as a single entity), HP ProLiant, D6000 direct attach storage, high-speed, low-latency interconnects, Microsoft SQL Server Parallel Data Warehouse software, HDInsight an enterprise-ready, Hadoop-based distribution and HP and Microsoft services and support. HP ConvergedSystem 300 for Microsoft Analytics lets you scale out data warehouse solutions to petabytes of data for the most demanding business needs. Queries run against tables containing trillions of rows of data are return results in seconds, providing new levels of scalability and performance for large enterprises. Through the use of massively parallel technology, HP's dense servers and storage subsystems, we are able to achieve outstanding performance. s are fully integrated and tested. The HP solution starts with a single rack, each containing up a minimum of two active compute nodes, and orchestration and passive nodes, expandable to eight active compute nodes. With expansion racks, the solution can extend to a maximum of 120 compute nodes (for both PDW and HDI regions). The shared-nothing software architecture is coupled to the hardware solution, pre-installed and optimized to achieve balanced throughput, I/O and processing power. User choices within the pre-configured appliance are minimal; the fine-tuned configuration allows customers to choose size and form factor of disks in the data racks and back up, PDU type, and additional services. The base rack contains multiple HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 servers and HP D6000 direct-attached storage. The functions within the appliance minimum configuration rack include: PDW Region Base Scale Unit (Required): The PDW Base Scale Unit (PDW Server Kits (2) and Storage Kit (1)) is where the physical data warehouse or data mart is stored. c DA Worldwide Version 13 June 1, 2015 Page 2

3 Overview o Tables are stored on 2 Compute nodes, with the data stored on each node's D6000 storage. Two types of tables are leveraged: replicated tables with copies stored on every node and distributed tables where separate physical tables on multiple compute nodes are logically joined through metadata stored on the Control node. By balancing the data across compute nodes and storing different table types appropriately (small dimension tables are replicated; very large fact or transaction tables with billions or even trillions of rows are distributed), the HP ConvergedSystem 300 for Microsoft Analytics is able to access the data in parallel and achieve high levels of I/O throughput. The massively parallel architecture gives our solution the speed to provide user queries with significantly higher levels of I/O throughput than may be achieved on a scale up SMP system. Customers may choose disk size based on capacity needs of the data warehouse. The Orchestration/Failover Server Kit (Passive Server Kit), with optional third node provides the follow functionality: o Accept queries from users, and creates an MPP execution plan which instructs one or more compute nodes to execute some portion of the query, often in parallel. Some queries will enter directly, such as from Microsoft Excel or Power View (Microsoft Excel 2013), while others may go through an application tier or OLAP cube such as SQL Server Analysis Services. o Acts internally as the domain controller for all the servers in the HP ConvergedSystem 300 for Microsoft Analytics and provides the interface for DBAs or data center operations to access and manage the overall solution. HDI Region Base Scale Unit (Optional): The HDI Region Base Scale Unit ((HDI Server Kits (2) and Storage Kit (1)) is where Hadoop data is stored on 4 Data Nodes with a replication factor of 3 Leveraging the same hardware configuration and options as the PDW Base Scale Unit, customers now have the option of adding Hadoop as part of the HP ConvergedSystem 200 for Microsoft Analytics. This capability aggregates both structured and unstructured data in the same ConvergedSystem and the Microsoft PolyBase technology allows customers to query both data sets and leverage the data locality within a single ConvergedSystem platform. The Orchestration/Failover Server Kit (Passive Server Kit) provides the follow functionality: o Hadoop Name Node, management, and security. Optional components Insight Remote Support Server Host You can unlock all the benefits of your technology investment by connecting your products to HP. HP developed Insight Remote Support (IRS) to provide 24x7 real-time hardware event monitoring and secure Internet event submission to help you reduce risk, identify and prevent potentially critical problems for your environment. IRS allows to achieve up to 77% reduction in down time, near 100% diagnostic accuracy and a single consolidated view of your environment. By connecting, you receive 24x7monitoring, pre-failure alerts, automatic call logging, and automatic parts dispatch. Automatic service request submission will save you time monitoring and reporting issues. Collection of configuration information from your devices will help HP resolve problems more quickly and accurately. (Note, no business information is collected and the data is managed according to the HP Data Privacy policy). Intelligent analysis of issues provides faster restoration of your monitored devices to operational status. HP Proactive Care service and HP Datacenter Care customers will also benefit from proactive reports and issue prevention activities. For more details, please see To enjoy this proactive support experience, you can add the IRS Monitoring software to the Data Integration Server (DIP) c DA Worldwide Version 13 June 1, 2015 Page 3

5 How to Order How to order HP The method for purchasing the is simple. ConvergedSystem 300 for Start by ordering a PDW Region Base Scale Unit which is comprised of two PDW Server Kits, Microsoft Analytics Orchestration/Failover (Passive Server Kits), and one Storage Kit. You can expand add up to three additional data scale units in the first rack. For additional capacity beyond a single rack, scale units can be added to grow up to 7 racks of capacity. Additionally with this release of the support is now provided for a second workload region. You know have the option of adding HD Insight scale units in the same platform. Since the HDI and PDW regions do not share the same physical hardware they can scale independently and you have the ability to scale-up to as many as 7 racks supporting HD Insight. NOTE: All racks purchased must be co-located, side by side. NOTE: For detailed ordering information please see the Configuration Information section NOTE: At least one PDW scale unit is required to support running HDI scale units NOTE: HP Deployment Services are included as part of the HP ConvergedSystem 300 for Microsoft Analytics, providing factory integration and onsite deployment services.

NOTE: SQL Server Parallel Data Warehouse uses the newest version of xvelocity memory-optimized columnstore, which is both updateable and clustered. By reorienting data in a column rather than a traditional row store, organizations can see nextgeneration performance (up to 50 times) by reducing the query time from hours to seconds and high compression on their data (up to 15 times). This is due to the grouping of data in a columnar format (containing values from multiple rows) that allows for higher efficiency in both storage and the returned dataset. The ability to permanently convert traditional row store tables with the updateable columnstore of xvelocity is another new feature, which dramatically reduces storage (by up to 70 percent) while still providing real-time data warehouse query performance.
