EMC VNX8000 和 EMC XtremCache 评估.pdf

September 2013 Evaluation of EMC VNX8000 and EMC XtremSW Cache Evaluation report prepared under contract with EMC Introduction As enterprises consider the ever-growing demands for improved performance and lower latency of mission-critical applications, IT organizations are turning to the undeniable advantages provided by flash-based storage solutions. Flash-based storage solutions are maturing, providing greater performance and supporting larger numbers of host servers than ever before. While adding SSD technology in one place in the infrastructure greatly improves performance, adding SSD technology in two places in the infrastructure, such as in the server and in the storage system, can provide additional benefits. Combined with SSD technology in the array and in the server, the newest generation of EMC VNX Series provides a more robust solution and supports larger total workloads than ever before. EMC commissioned Demartek to evaluate the performance of its VNX8000 storage system with MCx (multi-core optimization) and SSD technology as primary storage, along with its server-side flash software EMC XtremSW Cache. This evaluation included these combinations of solutions.  The EMC VNX8000 with SSDs as primary storage  The EMC VNX8000 combined with XtremSW Cache Executive Summary and Key Findings The new EMC solutions provided outstanding performance in terms of database performance and reduced latency in both the primary storage SSD configuration and in the server-side caching configurations tested. These solutions provide this performance while maintaining the advanced features and support that enterprise IT organizations expect from a top-tier independent storage vendor. © 2013 Demartek®   Email: info@
