The Next Chapter in IBM’s Flagship Disk Platform


– Exceptional performance• Up to over 150% performance improvement for sequential

workloads• Up to over 50% performance improvement for random

workloads

– Improved Reliability, Availability, Serviceability

– Higher Scalability• Enables higher scalability through POWER6 design,

increased cache size (384 GB)

– Greater Energy efficiency • Over 50% more IOPS/Watt

All these benefits with minimal changes to existing firmware and codebase … … which translates to higher system reliability and information availability

Proven Server-Based ArchitectureNew IBM POWER6 processor complex offers…


New PCI-Express Internal Fabric

Performance– PCI-E fabric increases data throughput, especially for sequential workloads

Availability – PCI-E fabric reduces the impact of hardware failures

Scalability– Scale internal bandwidth by adding additional data links or "lanes”

Flexibility and upgradability– PCI fabric enables single DS8700 model with flexibility to fit customer

requirements– Concurrent upgradability of all components from small to large

configurations

Enabling future growth

Lower acquisition costs by enabling non-disruptive upgrades from base 2-way model to full-blown 4-way model!
