Chip Shot: Intel Shatters Internet Protocol “iSCSI” Storage Records
Intel has announced remarkable iSCSI performance results that were achieved using Intel® 82599 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller-based server adapters, Intel Xeon processor 5500-series based servers, and the native iSCSI support in Windows Server 2008 R2. The 1,030,000 IOPS test result is more than double any previously announced iSCSI performance, showing that high performance networking is possible using iSCSI on 10GbE. Could iSCSI be the future of Enterprise storage networking? Learn more about these iSCSI results on the Intel server blog and view the Intel-Microsoft webcast.
Chip Shot: Sun Solaris Readies for Nehalem-EX
In a new white paper, Sun discusses how the Solaris OS will take advantage of the next-generation Intel Xeon processor for servers with four or more sockets (codename Nehalem-EX). In its latest version, Solaris will focus on scalable performance, advanced reliability and energy efficiency between specific features in Solaris and Nehalem-EX.

Managing Data Center Costs
Todays companies are turning to consolidation and virtualization to lower costs and increase performance and agility. Next-generation, high-performance servers from Sun Microsystems – powered by the new Intel Xeon processor 5500 series – deliver a platform that enables businesses to reap the benefits of virtualization and employ best practices for managing their data environments.
A server and storage refresh can bring dramatic savings and performance gains over three- and four-year-old equipment, cutting down on hardware footprints, management expenses, licensing fees, and energy costs while supporting mission-critical workloads more efficiently.

A New Standard for Business Computing
Todays data centers need to boost energy efficiency, lower costs, and increase their performance and reliability to stay competitive in a global marketplace. Suns Solaris Operating System, combined with Sun servers running on the new Intel Xeon processor 5500 series, meets all of these needs: Higher performance, increased efficiency, top-notch reliability, and lower costs of ownership and operation.
The Solaris OS takes advantage of the Intel Xeon processor 5500 series speed enhancements to deliver unprecedented performance. It also works with Intels power management features to match electrical consumption to workload, reducing wasted energy. Additionally, the Solaris Fault Management Architecture and Predictive Self Healing features can diagnose, isolate, and help recover from hardware and application faults, making high availability a reality.
