This paper describes the architecture and implementation details of a small scale-out storage (SOS) cloud solution built jointly by Intel and EMC to demonstrate a private cloud storage deployment across two geographically separate data centers. We built the scale-out storage cloud solution with the AMC Atmos cloud-optimized storage solution with Dell* servers based on Intel Xeon technology.   Provided by   ...

Intel IT has defined an architecture and implementation roadmap for a private enterprise cloud designed to increase agility and IT efficiency. The private cloud is a shared multi-tenant environment built on a highly efficient, automated, and virtualized infrastructure. Other key elements of the cloud include standardized application platforms provided as a service and a self-service portal that enables business groups to request and manage capacity fo...

DuPont is one of the world’s premier science companies. Its Central Research & Development (CR&D) IT leaders wanted to provide the company’s scientists with the power and flexibility of cloud-enhanced computing for its scientific application portfolio. DuPont CR&D chose the Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series as the foundation of its science-focused highperformance computing (HPC) cloud. Now the processor’s perfor...

Data center managers will face a lot of challenges over the next few years. In many facilities, three pressing problems need to be solved in the immediate future: limited power, increasing cooling demands, and space constraints.     Provided by   ...

You are probably well aware of the challenges facing data centers today. A full 17 percent of IT budgets are devoted to storage,1 and power and cooling costs represent as much as 40 percent of operational expenses. And that’s just today. Corporate data is expected to increase by 650 percent in just five years, from 2009 to 2015.   Provided by   ...

One of the greatest challenges for data center operators today is the increasing cost of power and cooling as a portion of the total cost of operation. Power and cooling costs indata centers have risen sharply over the past several years—as much as 400 percent in the span of a decade.1 In many data centers, electricity now represents as much as half of total operating expenses.2 Of equal concern is capacity. In 2007, IDC found that 40 percent o...
