HP the fifth generation Emulex fiber channel technology, excellent performance
The new Demartek laboratory JG238A evaluation shows, the fifth generation Emulex LightPulse fibre channel (FC) based on the host bus adapter (HBA) storage solution in performance andpower is much better than the solution on the generation of 8Gb based on FC. Demartek labHP StoreFabric SN1000E provided by the Emulex 16Gb FC HBA and use all flashconfiguration of HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 HP SN6000B 16b FC storage system switcheswere tested, results showed that HP -Emulex solutions for backup / restore, client virtualization, software services, OLTP database and rich media storage intensiveapplications they need excellent throughput, low delay and network storage performance.
Demartek in the data warehouse work load simulation system, Emulex provides the fifth generation of Emulex fiber channel technology based on HP StoreFabric SN1000E 16Gb FCHBA and 8Gb FC generation were tested, including the main test results:
Delay time: HP StoreFabric SN1000E 16Gb lower than 8Gb FC FC HBA delay HBAdecreased more than 50%, improves the production efficiency of data center;
Easier configuration: replace the old 4Gb and 8Gb FC HBA, HP StoreFabric SN1000E 16GbFC HBA can provide a simple and convenient, plug and play performance upgrade;
Faster: the use of HP StoreFabric SN1000E 16Gb FC HBA, finished 6 with actual userdatabase work load time, than using 8Gb FC HBA to shorten 26%.
Double peak throughput: HP StoreFabric SN1000E 16Gb FCHBA's new fifth generationEmulex fiber channel technology based on peak throughput can be provided, compared with 8Gb FC HBA 2 times, can further improve end-user in work load fluctuations or load peakexperience.
Demartek President Dennis Martin said: "our work load test database shows, compared with the previous generation 8Gb HBA, HP StoreFabric SN1000E 16Gb FC HBA to realize thedouble peak throughput, delay is reduced by more than 50%, work load completed 26% faster. We conclude that -- such as speed of fifth generation Emulex fiber channel technology that faster storage network technology is the best choice for use with SSD, more and more enterprise data center in the future will use this technology."
To sum up, testing and evaluation, the fifth generation of Emulex fiber channel technologyEmulex and brocade HP StoreFabric may provides the powerful performance and powerperformance, so as to meet the growing requirement -- such as the deployment of a virtual server, database application, SSD, flash memory environment. Using these solutions canfurther optimize the IT resources, while the more large-scale virtualization deployment andcloud initiatives to achieve JG239A the highest performance
