Handouts
  • Fit For Purpose (2.4 MB)
  • Discover why benchmarks don’t work, what workload really is, and how server design effects fitness to perform different types work. This session will show you why “one size does not fit all” and that “local factors” rule the day. This is a high level over view of how “Fit for Purpose” decision processes interact with workload optimization, server design, and IT infrastructure architecture. We will cover the operational and server design tradeoffs, and some recent work on relative capacity.

    The session will bring your thinking up to date about workload optimization and relative capacity, and help you understand why zEnterprise embraces heterogeneous computing.

    Tracks: IT Services Delivery, Performance/Capacity Planning and zNextGen
