  • Magic Quadrant for Blade Servers

    Magic Quadrant for Blade Servers

    Magic Quadrant for Blade Servers Gartner RAS Core Research Note G00207244, Andrew Butler, George J. Weiss, 17 January 2011, V3RA4 01202012 This Magic Quadrant for Blade Servers focuses on a market that is growing in complexity and sophistication, due to the emergence of related form factors, such as skinless servers, and the fast-growing interest in cloud computing, virtual input/output and fabrics. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Blades represent an important stage in the evolution of servers as separate, discrete platforms give way to modular designs, and the boundaries between servers, storage and networking become increasingly blurred. This creates an increasing overlap of functionality between product categories that were previously more clearly delineated. These boundaries will be further tested as fabric-based computing becomes more prevalent, and all blade servers are examples of a fabric-enabled architecture, due to the switch-based backplane or midplane that they exploit. Blades represent a more proprietary investment, due to the lack of hardware form factor interoperability standards and the growing dependence on proprietary management tools and virtual input/output (I/O) solutions. Due to their modular nature, blades offer compelling operational benefits, such as improved cabling, rapid hardware provisioning, high compute density, energy-efficient design and increasing management automation. However, blades deliver few, if any, incremental application benefits, compared with their rack- and tower-based peers. Blades are not the only choice for modular deployment; rack-optimized servers deliver some modularity benefits, and skinless servers now represent an even more extreme class of high-density deployment. Because many vendors position their blade and skinless servers as part of a standard “modular server” portfolio, the nascent market status of skinless servers is reflected in this year’s blade server Magic Quadrant.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Liquid Computing Announces Liquidiq 3.0 Unified Computing System Powered by Intel® Xeon® 5500 Series

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Liquid Computing Announces LiquidIQ 3.0 Unified Computing System Powered By Intel® Xeon® 5500 Series Processors Enables Customers to Rapidly Scale New Services, Efficiently Manage Quality of Service and Dramatically Lower Operating Costs Ottawa, Canada – March 30, 2009 – Liquid Computing, a leader in unified computing infrastructure for the dynamic data center, today announced the LiquidIQ 3.0 unified computing system powered by Intel Xeon 5500 Series Processors. The Intel Xeon 5500 Series Processor, also known by the code name “Nehalem”, takes the powerful performance, agility, and operational cost saving benefits of LiquidIQ to a new level, providing customers with even more horsepower and bandwidth to run either multi-tier, data intensive applications or virtualized applications while significantly decreasing power utilization and reducing space consumption by 50 percent. “Intel and Liquid Computing share a common goal of driving innovation to help data centers more effectively support business demands while reducing operating costs,” said Doug Cooper, country manager, Intel Canada. “Powered by the Intel Xeon Processor 5500 Series, LiquidIQ 3.0 achieves this goal in unified computing for data centers that support both virtualized and bare metal operations with significant leaps in performance, space utilization, and power efficiency.” The LiquidIQ unified computing platform is already in use in customer data centers today and provides total control over the delivery and quality of the on-demand business applications they manage, while at the same time significantly reducing data center operating costs. LiquidIQ is standards-based, certified to support major operating systems, and is the only unified computing system designed from the ground up to support applications running on bare-metal and those running within virtualized environments.

  • SURVEY in Pursuit of Petascale Computing

    SURVEY in Pursuit of Petascale Computing

    SURVEY In Pursuit of Petascale Computing: Initiatives Around the World Steve Conway Earl Joseph, Ph.D. Jie Wu Daniel Lee Richard Walsh Lloyd Cohen Charlie Hayes IDC OPINION The high-end high-performance computing (HPC) community has a penchant for marching toward milestones — the first sustained gigaflop (circa 1989), the first sustained teraflop (circa 1998), and now the first sustained petaflop. The pursuit of each milestone has led to important breakthroughs in science and engineering. Today, leading HPC sites have begun to identify applications that will benefit from petascale performance. Governments around the world, in partnership with HPC vendors, have launched initiatives to support the development and deployment of petascale systems. Much has already been written and spoken about the challenges and benefits of petascale computing; meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Energy, its labs, and DARPA are actively exploring requirements for the next milestone — exascale computing. Highlights of our analysis are as follows: The petascale era will arrive in stages — peak petaflop systems (late 2007– 2010), Linpack petaflops, sustained petaflops on "embarrassingly parallel" applications and, finally, sustained petaflops on challenging applications. Gone is the era when only the United States and Japan had the wherewithal to develop and deploy the highest-performing class of HPC systems. Petascale initiatives also exist in Europe and China — although the U.S. and Japanese initiatives are the most fully conceived and may still be the highest performers. Petascale architectures will range from ultralarge clusters to "hybrid" designs that aim to deliver more performance by coupling together (loosely or tightly) multiple processor types via high-bandwidth interconnects.

It differs in that it provides the ability to connect to software and data living on the Internet (the cloud) instead of on a hard drive or local network. Since IT is always on the lookout for new and better ways to increase capacity or add capabilities on the fly without investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software, cloud computing holds much promise. It is, however, still in a nascent stage, and it behooves IT management to look closely and carefully at what’s involved and whether or not the concept is a workable one for the company. What follows is a compendium of articles about cloud computing in which we explore the current state of the art, early adopters, the economics, the potential pitfalls and what you can do to avoid them, and what IT leaders are saying about the concept.

    Magdeburger Journal zur Sicherheitsforschung Gegründet 2011 | ISSN: 2192-4260 Herausgegeben von Stefan Schumacher und Jörg Sambleben Erschienen im Magdeburger Institut für Sicherheitsforschung This article appears in the special edition „In Depth Security – Proceedings of the DeepSec Conferences“. Edited by Stefan Schumacher and René Pfeiffer The Compromised Devices of the Carna Botnet As used for the Internet Census 2012 Parth Shukla This article will showcase the latest analysis and the progress of industry collaboration on the problem of Internet facing devices that have default credential logins through telnet. The Carna Botnet, which was used to perform the first-ever map of the Internet – Internet Census 2012 – highlighted a major information security concern with devices that allow default credential login from the Internet by default. For more information on the Internet Census 2012, please refer to the anonymous researcher’s paper. A complete list of compromised devices that formed part of the Carna Botnet was obtained exclusively by Parth Shukla. This list is NOT publicly available from any source. This data was acquired directly from the anonymous researcher who performed the Internet Census. As confirmed by the researcher, AusCERT to date remains the only organization and researcher in the world that has the complete dataset. Relevant snippets of this data, however, have been provided to CERTs around the world in order to reduce the threat made explicit by the Carna Botnet. This article will provide a detailed analysis of all the different identifying information for each of the com- promised devices that formed part of the Botnet. This detailed analysis will showcase the prevalence of easily- exploitable devices in different countries, regions and in different manufacturers.
