DESCRIPTION
Annonces de la nouvelle technologie IBM Power7+ Depuis plus de 10 ans, les entreprises privilégient la technologie Power pour AIX, IBM i et Linux. Aujourd'hui, IBM élargit le leadership de ses plateformes Power en introduisant une évolution technologique avec l'architecture Power 7+. D.FI vous invite à découvrir les nouvelles fonctionnalités Power 7+ qui peuvent vous aider à répondre aux exigences de votre informatique en vous offrant dynamiquement une plus grande efficacité, des fonctions d'analyse métier et centraliser les charges de travail. Nouveautés : Le Power 7+ est une puce octocoeurs gravée en 32 nm (contre 45 mn pour Power7) : - Atouts : La fréquence d'horloge est dopée ; - La taille du cache eDRAM est multipliée par 2,5. De nouvelles fonctions : assistance matérielle à la compression de mémoire AME ("Active Memory Expansion“) et accélération cryptographiques. Une évolution majeure permet désormais de créer jusqu'à 20 micro-partitions par coeurs Power7+

Power 750 / 760 Performance Considerations
�Power 750+ / 760 systems design / topology is similar to Power 770 with 6 core sockets–Similar workload characteristics–Bandwidths between cores is higher than those between Sockets / Nodes
–Latency across Sockets / Nodes is higher than latencies between cores
�Memory Bandwidth per core–Power 750+ = Power 750–Power 760 < Power 750
• Power 760 has more cores per socket

• Less CPU for the same amount of memory expansion
• Can then run more partitions or work per partition
• If fewer cores needed, may result in lower software licensing
• OR more memory expansion for the same amount of processor
• Better able to relieve memory shortages and improve performance
• May be able to do more work

� POWER7+ uses on-chip hardware accelerator to do some of the compression / decompression work. There is a knee-of-cure relationship for CPU resource required for memory expansion – Even with POWER7+ hardware accelerator there is some resource required.– The more memory expansion done, the more CPU resource required
� Knee varies depending on how compressible memory contents are
