Mainframe GDPS STP up to 100km and more (with RPQ) Fiber A Mainframe CF Coupling Facility B Fiber CF Coupling Facility ESS DASD Switch/ Director 175km *Geographically Dispersed Parallel Sysplex (IBM qualified) Switch/ Director Highest protection through redundant Mainframe and Storage (ESS) Server coupling and timers via Coupling Links (ISC-2, ISC-3) Disk mirroring via METRO (ESCON and FC) or GLOBAL XRC (FICON) ESS DASD 9

10 IBM GDPS Server Time Protocol (STP) over IB ADVA is the only qualified vender!!! Extended Distance GDPS STP with 2.5 or 5G Infinband Mainframe PPRC 4 &10 G ISLs to 200km WITH NO MID SPAN HUT!

11 What about Open Systems? IB Server Cluster A IB Server Cluster B ~50km Dark Fiber IB Switch Fabric IB-over-DWDM IB Switch Fabric Why is it relevant? Data centers disperse geographically (GRID computing, visualization, disaster recovery, ) Native, low-latency IB-over-Distance transport was still the missing part Cluster connectivity via IB-over-WDM WAN protocol is IB, no conversion needed No additional latency Fully transparent transport 11

12 InfiniBand throughput over distance with B2B credits Throughput w/o B2B credits Throughput drops significantly after several meters Only buffer credits (B2B credits) ensure maximum InfiniBand performance over distance Buffer credit size directly related to distance Distance What is the solution? IB range extender Credit Buffering, low latency, and conversion to 10G optical WDM lowest latency, transparency, capacity, reach, fiber relief What are the commercial requirements? Solution must be based on commercial products Interworking capabilities must be demonstrated 12
