IBM Power Cloud Box Cloud computing Platform Solution

2011, if the industry is talking about the most, the most attention to a word, not "cloud" mo. Cloud computing after several years of brewing and development is moving from theory to practice. Cloud computing is rising from perceptual knowledge to rational knowledge, not a fad to hype a concept, arguing about the definition of cloud computing, more focused on how to land the cloud.


　　


, a security expert from McAfee, recently released a network survey they had commissioned by Boko and McAfee. The survey was attended by a total of 100 IT professionals, and most of them were security decision makers in large companies with more than 500 people who found that the--it sector is now transforming into virtualization, and that near-average respondents are planning or already deploying private clouds. The survey found that 62% of respondents were planning or starting to upgrade their data centers, and many people did so because they increased the use of virtualization. In addition, 29% of respondents said they were expanding the size of server virtualization, and 32% said they were addressing network bandwidth and traffic problems.


　　


How can you implement fast and efficient operations for a data center when deploying a private cloud? For those technology executives and decision makers, face a multitude of private cloud solutions? What is the difference between them? Let's take a look below.


　　


IBM power Cloud Box Cloud computing platform Solution


　　


Power Cloud Box is a platform solution tailored to the Chinese market that only sells in the Chinese market and does not enter the global market. The point is that there is no need to radically change the datacenter, and there is no need to do much of the underlying architecture, application, and model changes that are more conservative and more stable Mature technology for Chinese users, more attractive and practical significance.


　　


Power Cloud box consists of a system resource pool of high-performance power high performance servers, combined with cloud computing infrastructure management software BAE Director VMControl (and Cloud, through industry-leading POWERVM virtualization technology) Starter), the realization of cloud computing wisdom of service delivery, with unlimited virtualization capabilities, uninterrupted business flexibility, unparalleled green features, efficient automated management capabilities, through the Ibmtsam cloud computing management platform, to provide billing functions, improve service quality management and user-service functions, is a complete set of workload-optimized intelligence systems.


　　


for the core devices in cloud computing, IBM released this year a $800 million trillion-dollar architecture--ex5 server, which was called "IBM's most important release in the last 10 years" by Chanda, the chairman of IBM's Greater China region. As one of the smart system blockbuster solutions, IBMeX5 employs the intelligent new generation Xeon processor 7500, which enables the SYSTEMX server to optimize workloads with a large memory, high storage IOPS, flexible partitioning and modularity, and to help users do more work and simplify management with less effort, Stand the test of cost, safety, extensibility and other latitude.


　　

The
eX5 architecture includes--4 server system X3850X5, dual server system x3690x5, and Blade server BladeCenter HX5. These servers give the Intel X86 architecture, the best balance of performance and energy efficiency, and the IBM "Smart Systems" philosophy.


　　


Cloudstart is a solution for HP to help businesses quickly build their own private cloud, with the original intent of using industrial standard servers (including the x86 servers of other vendors that customers have deployed), storage and networking, and corresponding management software components, Set up a private cloud platform for customers within 30 days.


　　


in terms of infrastructure, Cloudstart supports VMware vsphere and Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization platforms, while the XenServer platform for Citrix is based on customer needs, with VMware and Microsoft's cloud computing solutions being the mainstay ( especially VMware).


　　


HP's highly Scalable (EXSO) series includes a new lightweight, ultra-high-efficiency, modular system architecture that covers the entire data center solution, services, and support, and is designed to save significant costs and resources for businesses that use Web2.0, cloud computing, and high-performance computing.


　　

The core of
HP's highly Scalable (EXSO) series is the HPPROLIANTSL server family based on the Intel Xeon X86 processor. The server family uses a "seamless modular" system architecture. The architecture can replace traditional chassis and rack profiles with extremely lightweight rail and pallet designs. As a result, customers can achieve a sharp reduction in capital, facilities, and transport costs while consuming only a fraction of the data center's space. In addition, its super efficient modular design enables customers to quickly build solutions to meet the requirements of scale scaling.


　　


Dell launched its own research and development of the overall architecture cloud solution, called Virtual Integration System (integrated systems, for short, Vis). Vis is composed of three parts, Dell Vis self-service creator, Dell Vis workload Guide and Dell Vis Advanced Architecture Manager. Vis advanced Architecture Manager is a scalent based management platform for cloud virtualization that integrates with vsphere, Hyper-V, and Xen to complete VMware, WebPart, and virtual machine automation operations such as discovery, configuration, startup, creation, and deletion.
