CoherenceCoherence

Traditional Application DeploymentMany platforms distributed across the enterprise

• Unbalanced hardware– Poor and uneven resource

utilization by many applications– Application-specific hardware silos

• IO bottlenecks– High-latency network– Underperforming database

• Diminished Reliability– Limited fault management, tuning– Complex to deploy and maintain

Exalogic: Balanced for Java PerformanceOptimal Middleware design, tuning, management

• Balanced CPU and Memory– JVM efficiency improved 5-10%

with new fast DIMM memory– Discovering correct JVM tuning for

the hardware environment yields 10-25% efficiency gain

• FlashFire SSD– OS boot, paging, local caching

performance increased 10x– Compute nodes with no moving

Exalogic: Lossless Switched FabricIncrease CPU utilization and application efficiency

• Improve CPU utilization– RDMA eliminates unnecessary

buffer copying by bypassing OS kernel

– Fewer CPU cycles wasted waiting on IO because of reduced communication latency

• Reduce unnecessary communication overhead– Security, reliability and QoS

efficiently handled lower in the communication stack

Exalogic Java Performance

InfiniBand Performance AdvantageUp to 12x Performance

• Network IO is critical– #1 limiting factor for application

performance and scale

• Eliminate buffer copies– From four to zero

• Use larger packet size to reduce network overhead – 64K instead of 4K packets

• Optimized for InfiniBand – 3x throughput over 10 GbE– 50% less latency via native SDP
