We are always on the lookout for any performance tests that show the benefits of adding flash storage to Power Systems iron, and we found some recently in an NVM-Express flash drive deep drive given by Douglas Gibb’s the I/O product manager for the Power Systems line at IBM during the POWERUp 2023 conference in Denver. The presentation that Gibbs gave went through all of the ins and outs of flash storage on Power Systems, including those that use the NVM-Express protocol over the PCI-Express peripheral bus, which offers a direct link between the operating system and the flash storage … The post Power10 Boosts NVM-Express Flash Performance appeared first on IT Jungle.

Since upgrading to IBM FlashSystem storage, the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust has seen a dramatic improvement in patient experience through a significant increase in performance and reliability for critical clinical systems. With help from Covenco, the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust deployed three IBM FlashSystem 5000 arrays, with two in an IBM HyperSwap® configuration to enable dual-site, active-active access to critical data.

More than 148 exabytes of compressed LTO tape capacity was shipped in 2022, a slight increase from the previous year, the LTO Program announced yesterday. The growth signals the continued relevancy of tape in a changing landscape marked by the predicted demise of spinning disk, the ubiquity of ransomware, and the continued growth of unstructured data. Shipped LTO capacity reached a record high last year of 148.3 exabytes, a half-percent increase over 2021, according to the LTO Program, which is comprised of IBM, HPE, and Quantum. While unit shipments of tape cartridges declined slightly, capacity still grew thanks to more … The post Total LTO Shipped Capacity Up Slightly in 2022 appeared first on IT Jungle.

1) Remote I/O (Storage) drawer is 19 inches by 2U. Where “remote” means the Power10 server has this unit attached via PCIe cables but it operates much like the internal NVMe disks are part of the server itself. 2) Up to 24 NVMe drives – drives used are very similar to those in Power10 with these sizes: 800 GB, 1.6 TB, 3.2 TB and 6.4 TB. 3) Each drive is separately assignable to a different virtual machine (LPAR) and bootable for AIX, VIOS, Linux, and IBM i. 4) Connected to Power10 servers with new high-speed cables & adapters. 5) Power10 Adapter PCIe gen 4 for higher bandwidth & higher I/O operations per second. 6) Two cable pairs – copper or optical. 7) Low electricity power requirements. 8) Lower cost per GB compared to the previous SAS drawer. 9) 154 TB of storage per NED24 Drawer 10) 1.2 PB data when you attach eight NED24 to a Power10 model E1080.From: Nigel Griffiths

IBM accepted the challenge of building ransomware threat detection directly into its FlashSystem storage solutions, taking an innovative approach.

IBM FlashSystem—a critical component of the IBM Storage for Data Resiliency portfolio—now includes inline corruption detection, a feature that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to help organizations detect changes in their data that may indicate threats. Yesterday, IBM Storage announced new features coming to IBM FlashSystem, its hybrid data storage platform that protects, backs up and manages capacity-intensive data via flash memory.

In this updated video, See a deep dive, live demo of how IBM’s QRadar SIEM and Brocade’s FOS OS, work seamlessly to handle a brute force attacker surgically, and how both products can be configured for many other malware and ransomware attacks. This also includes Safeguarded Copy on the IBM FlashSystem. Done by Shashank Shingornikar who has published a companion RedPaper available at http://redbooks.ibm.com

Here is a peculiar thing: It is almost like there are two different Power Systems customer sets. Those they spend big in the second quarter and fourth quarter of every year and those that spend less big in the first and third quarters of every year. While we understand the normal Q4 bump that happens because there are decades of traditions, founded on good budgetary and capacity planning practices, we are a bit perplexed why when it comes to the Power Systems market at least, Q2 is almost as good revenue-wise as the prior Q4. We admit fully that this … The post Storage Helps Power Systems Grow In The First Quarter appeared first on IT Jungle.
