Traditional Networks of Ethernet + FC dominate today

• Ethernet LAN and FC SAN are at prime of lifecycle today

• Server virtualization has stimulated SAN deployment

• Fibre Channel represents more than 75% of these deployments

• Only 20% of FCOE DC switch ports are actually moving storage traffic*

The Network Matters for Storage

• Storage requires purpose-built fabric architectures to ensure reliability and performance for critical applications and data • Customers have built their mission critical infrastructure on a

SAN • Technology evolution in the data center can introduce

significant risk to uptime

• SAN fabrics enable advanced data center technologies like flash storage, server virtualization, and cloud architectures

All networks are not created equal

The Network Matters for Availability

• Regardless of how resilient a single network can be with multiple paths, etc, it is still a single network

• There is no virtual or logical partitioning that can protect the network completely

• Storage requires redundant networks with air-gaps for protection

Single networks are single points of failure for storage

The Network Matters for Block Storage

• Losing network connectivity can corrupt application data or file systems • Operating systems cache writes

before flushing them to disk • Some file systems try to

minimize risk by journaling

• Corruptions can require many hours (or days) to restore

Bad things happen when storage networks fail

16 Gbps SANs Matters for VMware Storage

Executive Summary Fibre Channel (FC) interconnect speed has increased to 16 gigabits per second (Gbps). To take full advantage of this enhancement, VMware vSphere® 5.1 has added support for the 16Gb FC host bus adapter (HBA). This white paper illustrates the improvements in storage I/O throughput that vSphere gains when using a 16Gb FC HBA instead of an 8Gb FC HBA. In addition, this paper looks at the CPU efficiency of the vSphere host when handling the increased storage I/O. Introduction With the availability of 16Gb FC HBAs, larger block I/Os have doubled their throughput compared to the 8Gb per second bandwidth. The throughput has improved together with better CPU efficiency per I/O. For random I/Os with small block sizes, I/Os per second (IOPs) have increased because their throughput is not bounded by the FC link speed before reaching the 16Gbps wire speed limit. Having doubled the throughput rates from the newly available 16Gb FC HBA, the vSphere 5.1 platform can support more storage devices and meet bandwidth requirements using the same number of FC links. The doubled bandwidth for large block transfers can benefit applications like VMware vSphere® Storage vMotion®. The improvement in random read IOPs at a 4KB block size, for example, can benefit application components like VMware® View™ clients. Applications are no longer limited by the existing 8Gb FC bandwidth to meet their peak performance requirements.

Scale-Out Optical ICLs

• Maximizes performance and scalability of SAN fabrics • Connect up to six chassis (core-edge) • Each ICL port delivers 64 Gbps (4×16 Gbps) bandwidth • 32 × ICL ports per Brocade DCX 8510-8 chassis • 16 × ICL ports per Brocade DCX 8510-4 chassis • Up to 2 Tbps ICL bandwidth (four times existing) • Up to 50 m multimode ribbon fiber cables

• Minimizes latency between chassis • Lowest-latency switching through the backplane vs. ISLs • Does not count as a hop for FICON environments

• Maximizes load balancing and availability • Frame-based trunking is automatically enabled between four ICLs • DPS distributes exchanges across all frame trunks • If an ICL fails, traffic automatically flows over the remaining ICLs
