Growing Data Sets Slowing Down Your Apps? Experience 100x Faster Application Performance
[ Source: RNA networks ]
July 2009-
Enterprise data centers are struggling with large data sets with real implications for application performance, cost and competitiveness. While memory capacity has grown, distributed data center architectures require that many servers have access to the same data sets, often TBs in size and too large to fit in memory of any one server.
RNAcache provides a solution directly targeted at the root cause of this bottleneck; memory limitations. Because RNAcache dynamically scales to store ....

January 2008-
This paper published by Hewlett-Packard states that the Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) management processor for entry-level Integrity and HP9000 servers is an autonomous management subsystem embedded directly on the server. Like all management processors in the Integrity and HP9000 product line, it is the foundation of the server’s High Availability (HA), embedded health, and fault management capabilities. It also provides system administrators secure remote management capabilities regardless of server status or location. This paper discusses the ....

January 2008-
Fujitsu has developed a single-chip multicore processor FR1000 that integrates four 8-way, Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) FR-V processor cores. This new multicore processor is fabricated using a 90 nm, nine-metal-layer CMOS process and a 900-pin flip-chip package. The processor cores operate at 500 MHz, the memory interfaces at 250 MHz, and system bus at 166 MHz. This paper introduces the hardware and software development environment of this new processor, describes the processor’s software operation ....
