Quotes from the announcement and other news sources …. and the reality:
�“… bring Xeon-based systems the same levels of uptime and availability that HP’s Itanium-based Integrity servers are known for today …”
� x86 servers currently do not have the same mission critical characteristics as UNIX servers
�“… Increase scalability with 32-socket “DragonHawk” symmetrical multiprocessing x86 systems …”� x86 servers do not have the capacity to scale, currently 8 sockets
�“… Boost flexibility and availability of x86 systems with HP nPartitions technology …”� x86 servers cannot scale, must have archaic hardware partitioning to simulate enterprise
system isolation characteristics and function
�“… Increase availability of critical Linux applications with the HP Serviceguard solution …”� Clustering solutions on x86 are not good enough for “Mission Critical”
�“… Boost reliability and resiliency of x86 systems with fault-tolerant HP Crossbar Fabric …”� x86 servers are not built with the fault-tolerant capabilities required for “Mission Critical”
�“… HP says it will continue to develop its HP-UX, OpenVMS and Nonstop platforms for Itanium, but it's also developing hardened, more resilient versions of Windows and Linux for the Xeon-based servers, it said. …”
� x86 operating systems do not have full “Mission Critical” characteristics todaySource: HP to Transform Server Market with Single Platform for Mission-critical Computing, http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2011/111122xb.html
HP to Put Xeon Chips in High-end Integrity Servers, http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/244645/hp_to_put_xeon_chips_in_highend_integrity_servers.html
Myth: x86 is ready to run “Mission Critical” workloads
If you are not convinced, in the HP “Odyssey” announcement on November 22, 2011; HP revealed to all that
x86 is not ready for “Mission Critical” workloads and will not be for several years …… Are you willing to wait?

PowerVM Vs x86 virtualization

� vSphere– For productive use of the SAP system, you must reserve the resources for the CPU and
memory. The behavior of several parallel virtual machines is only predictable if all machines use reserved resources. Otherwise, performance might deteriorate significantly.
– The virtualization layer requires additional resources. All virtual machines that run in parallel on a host should require no more than 100% of the memory and 80% of the CPU capacity of the host. The 20% overhead is the minimum for the service overhead that the virtualization requires during the optimal configuration.
– SAP did internal tests with optimal configuration (flat memory model, no protection, and so on). During these tests, we reached about 80% of the maximum capacity of the same server in a non-virtualized environment when all virtual machines are used with full utilization. This applies under the prerequisite that sufficient memory is available, and paging does not occur.
– For standard configurations that are better suited for universal, practical requirements (for example, several parallel application modules, or background jobs) than the tuning for an SD benchmark, a scaling of 60% was reached in internal tests. This applies under the prerequisite that sufficient memory is available, and paging does not occur.
� Hyper-V– For parallel SAP systems on several virtual machines, we could not detect a loss of performance
as long as less than 50% of the possible server utilization was reached. If the server is utilized more than 50% , a significant performance loss was measured within the virtual machine. However, this only occurs when several virtual machines are utilized in parallel.
– For Hyper-V, we measured 60% of the performance of a non-virtualized machine with full utilization of a server with several virtual machines that run SAP ERP applications.
� SAP Note 1374671 - Any combination of Guest Failover Clustering with other virtual technologies, for example, VMware VMotion, VMware Fault Tolerance, VMware clusters (DRS or HA), is not supported.

Power8 Muscles Up for Servers - Author: Linley Gwennap
“Called Power8, the new chip delivers impressive numbers, doubling the performance of its already powerful predecessor, Power7+”
“IBM’s new chip will crush [the] records”
“The Power8 specs are mind boggling. It’s the world’s largest microprocessor”
“… integrates more than 100MB of cache memory backed with 230GB/s bandwidth to external memory—figures that also lead the industry…”
“… Power8 is a fire-breather …”
“Power8 is perhaps the first commercial processor that is truly designed for really big data.”
