5 Lets pause for a Moment Remember When.. Printers were attached to servers in the DC? Where are we heading? Do you have a home network? The Network Consolidation Effect Server Architecture Peripheral Network Networked Resource

6 Looking Ahead: A New Family of Data Center Class Platforms 2000 s Classical Ethernet Infiniband Unified Fabric Front-End Back-End Server Mgmt Fabric-A Fabric-B Resilient Real Time Scalable RDMA MPI Scale of Current Problems Demands a New roach Infrastructure Scalability By 2009, 50% of large businesses will spend more on power and cooling then on new servers (Gartner, 2006) Quad cores and octal cores will drive significantly more traffic is expected to continue to grow at a 40 70% CAGR (Gartner, 2006) Transport Flexibility Continued deconstruction of the server increases demands on the network Market transitions between transport technologies and application architectures Operational Continuity Expectation of 24x7 application availability 54% of network downtime is caused by human error (Uptime Institute, 2007)

9 The Case for 10GbE to the Server Multi-Core CPU architectures allowing bigger and multiple workloads on the same machine Server virtualization driving the need for more I/O bandwidth per server Growing need for network storage driving the demand for higher network bandwidth to the server 10GE LAN on server Motherboards (LoM) beginning mid-2008 (source: Broadcom ) The Case for Unified Fabric Reduce overall Data Center power consumption by up to 8%. Extend the lifecycle of current data center. Wire hosts once to connect to any network - SAN, LAN, HPC. Faster rollout of new apps and services. Every host will be able to mount any storage target. Drive storage consolidation and improve utilization. Rack, Row, and X-Data Center VM portability become possible.
