……As one measure of this leadership, we announced that
for the 16th consecutive year we were No. 1 in U.S.
patents, with over 4,000 in 2008.
That’s more than the total of Microsoft, HP, and Cisco
combined.
Consistent with the direction of our business, over 70
percent of our patents were for software and services……
Mark Loughridge,
IBM’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
business as usual = strada senza uscita
• Spazio insufficiente
• Impossibilita’ a fornire l’energia
necessaria (power e/o cooling)
• Human resource / cost challenges
• Vulnerabilita’ ad hackers e attacchi
Virtualization changes
everything
Cosa succede quando si virtualizza?
•
Con i giusti strumenti le risorse virtualizzate possono
essere facilmente create, aggiustate, mosse, clonate,
monitorate e controllate
Tuttavia, possono emergere nuove complessita’
•
•
•
Crescita rapida di risorse virtualizzate “cross”
ambienti multipli
Relazione delle risorse virtualizzate con il
sottostante strato fisico
Monitoraggio della “salute” e determinazione dei
problemi tra infrastruttura fisica e virtualizzata
Le maggiori sfide che i clienti
“hanno in testa”
• Ho troppi servers da gestire, di fornitori
diversi
• Non ho abbastanza potenza e capacita’ di
raffreddamento nella mia server room da
poter installare ancora server
• Il mio budget per la gestione dei server e’
molto facile che verra’ tagliato
Che cosa guida oggi il mercato ??
• Si cerca la riduzione dei costi di acquisizione e operativi attraverso il
deployment di workloads mission-critical su sistemi x86, guidando
cosi la necessita’ di high availability
• I costi di gestione dei sistemi sono cresciuti sette volte piu’
rapidamente dei costi hardware1
• I costi di power & cooling sono pure cresciuti —il business medio ora
spende circa 50 cents di power & cooling per ogni dollaro speso di
hardware2
• x86 processor technology diventa sempre piu’ potente e capace di far
girare applicazioni di business piu’ grandi e piu’ sofisticate che aiutano
a ridurre i costi dell’IT
• I costi della gestione dei server stanno rapidamente superando
l’effettivo costo della vita dell’hardware
• La proliferazione dei servers sta consumando prezioso spazio,
consumando budget IT , consumando budget per impianti elettrici/di
raffreddamento

La strategia per Virtualizzare con i System x
Supporto degli industry standard per

Essere un riferimento leader tra le
piattaforme hardware
Offrire una soluzione completa per la
gestione
Proprieta’ delle macchina virtuali
Partizionamento
Isolamento/ Secure
Molteplici macchine virtuali
“girano” simultaneamente su un
singolo server/PC
La macchina virtuale e’ isolata dal
Host OS, e dalle altre VMs
Incapsulamento
Hardware Independence
L’intera VM e’ salvata in files. Puo’
essere spostata e/o copiata come
un qualsiasi file
Una macchina virtuale gira
senza legami specifici con l’HW
Maggior utilizzo dell ‘ HW
Prima di VMware
Dopo VMware
La virtualizzazione permette il consolidamento di workloads
da servers sottoutilizzati su un singolo server
per ottenere un maggior utilizzo
in piena sicurezza
I clienti virtualizzano per:
• consolidare
• risparmiare energia
• la flessibilita’
•l’ alta affidabilita’
•Anche per applicazioni particolari
•la continuita’ di servizio
•Anche durante gli aggiornamenti (es. SO, sw, fix per DB..)
• il D/R facilitato
• il costo di gestione basso
Regole per la Virtualizzazione
• Evitare gli Hot spot
•
– Riducendo
il rischio di più carichi di lavoro saturando un dato server
– Se i server virtuali sono posizionati su più server di piccola dimensione
(per esempio quatto macchine con 2 processori) piuttosto che su di un
server più grande (per esempio un 8 processori) allora le richieste di
risorse da un particolare workload possono saturare un dato server fisico
mentre un altro sarebbe sottoutilizzato Un server condiviso ma di
maggiore dimensione/potenza può evitare hot spot artificiali che
impattano il livello di servizio (throughput e tempo di risposta).
•
Disporre di risorse hardware stimando possibili carichi di lavoro futuri
– Spesso è il caso di pianificare una nuova configurazione multi-sistema se le richieste di
risorse da parte di alcuni sistemi/workload non sono noti con precisione.
In questi casi si ha un gran vantaggio usando un server scalabile come x3850M2
per ospitare diversi server virtuali in modo da gestire le “sorprese”
di un particolare sistema/workload senza acquisire altro hardware per il server o
apportando modifiche fisiche.
•
Capacità di soddisfare picchi di carico .
– Con un “grosso” server piuttosto che con N server più piccoli, c’è una grande
probabilità che un processore sia libero in qualche intervallo di tempo per gestire
picchi per qualsiasi aumento di carico.

Workstation
Blades
Shared Services: Server based applications or
desktops deployed in shared services models
such as Citrix, where users share a single OS
Virtual Client: uses virtualization of client OS
and applications on servers to deliver client
computing, specially integrated and priced for
client workloads (VMware)
Workstation Blades: Uses workstation class
hardware installed in the data center to host a
connection to a thin client device. Typically, 1
blade per user.
