Cloud in a Box • Customizable for your Needs • Dual Power Path • On-board UPS for each path • Auto Transfer Switch • 400 Hz power is possible • System Capability is expandable • Economical Compute horsepower • Shared iSCSI storage • Some Systems are self propelled • Add your own communication links
Example Applications • Military type remote deployment • Easy to transport • Mobile Office Data Center • Harsh Environment • No Cap Ex building upgrades • Very quiet, no equipment room needed • Disaster Recovery • All weather outdoor operation • Self contained
Mobile Office Configuration Mid Size Configuration Very Large Configuration
Overview Equipment Enclosure Power and UPS Servers Shared Storage Network Switch Data Link Application Performance Monitoring Integration and Testing
Power and UPS • Provide 2 power paths to equipment • Primary Grid Power • Generator • Failsafe design • Extreme Power UPS for each path • 2 units, each does 2 KW • Auto Transfer Switch powers the equipment • Power source transfers when Ground power fails
Designed for Virtual Machines • 1U master console for Virtual Machine system controller and utility services • 2 or 3 of the 2U “Worker” chassis • Each chassis has 4 blades • Each blade has 2 CPUs • Each CPU has 6 cores • iSCSI shared storage • Dual 1Gig Ethernet paths for communication
Network Bandwidth Overview • (2) Cisco Catalyst 2960S-24TD-L • (4) 10 Gig uplinks using dual switches • Dual paths 1 Gig Ethernet links to each blade • Management server for control and management • (1) Xeon E5-2620 dual CPU 6-Core processer • 64GB of DDR3-1600 RAM • 80GB of high speed SSD • Sized for supporting 50+ Virtual Machines
Servers and Storage • Built in the USA • High power computers • iSCSI shared storage • Professional System Integration Experience • Can be customized for your needs • Price or • Performance
Worker modules • (8) Xeon E5-2620 dual CPU 6-Core processors blades • 64GB of DDR3-1600 RAM • 80GB of high speed of Internal SSD • Can be customized • More RAM and SSD for better performance • Less SSD and more disk to reduce cost
Blades Servers • 4 Blades in the back • Dual power supplies • Internal SDD • 3 Disks each • Disk are hot swappable • Easy access in the front • Supports KVM or Hyper Visor • Perfect for Virtualization
Storage • 3 Tiers for maximum performance • (4) 1 gigabit Ethernet Links (iSCSI) • Solid State Disk (SSD) for maximum performance • (4) x 300GB RAID 10 20% over-provisioned • High Speed Disk for medium speed • 2.4 TeraBytes RAID 10 (8) x 600GB SAS 10,000 RPM • 8 TeraBytes of RAID 6 SAS disk (7200 RPM)
Network Options • Fiber Optics Single mode 10 gig links • Can support WDM • Multiple 10 gig links on just 1 pair of fibers • Remote deployment • Should be loaded with data before deployment • Satellite link for real-time • Very low bandwidth • Long latency • 3 users get OK response
Networking • 2 Switches for fail-safe operation and speed • 24 ports on each switch • Load shared storage with data quickly • Data Link Overview • Dual 10 Gig Ethernet links on each switch • Use multiple colors of light on one fiber (WDM) • Get up to 8 times the transfer speed
Application Performance Monitoring • The new big thing needed for fine tuning VMs • Blade servers don’t have keyboards, mice or monitors • Save money by not using KVM • How to see what the Virtual Machines are doing • Add Taps to make copy of the traffic • Use VSS Monitoring Protector to select links and protocol to be captured • Use Network Instruments GigaStor to continuously record all the traffic • Use Observer to view the activity
Application Monitoring • Recommended not required • Network Monitoring Process • Taps monitor links between switch and servers • Software to analyze what went on • Needed to see what VMs do
Operator Controls • Several Options for Keyboard, Mouse and Video Controls • 16 Operator Consoles • Analog KVM • KVM over IP • Remote Support • Virtual Machine (VM) Support
Build and Test • Profession • Built in the USA • Quick response • Great Support • Built to your specification • All systems burned in and tested • Low or high volume
Conclusion – Primary Benefits • Pick the power you need • Modular can be small, medium or large • Can provide up to 80 kW of cooling • Mobile option – works anywhere • Self contained • All weather operation • Stable platform for dish antennas
Pick the Power and Price you need • Find a payment options that work for you • Cost is based on your requirement • Lease options are available • Use OpEx money instead of CapEx • 5% of the purchase price per month • Good for groups that might move to a new location
