    Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance: Ideal Storage for Virtualization and Private Clouds ORACLE WHITE P A P E R | MARCH 2 0 1 7 Table of Contents Introduction 1 The Value of Having the Right Storage for Virtualization and Private Cloud Computing 2 Scalable Performance, Efficiency and Reliable Data Protection 2 Improving Operational Efficiency 3 A Single Solution for Multihypervisor or Single Hypervisor Environments 3 Maximizing VMware VM Availability, Manageability, and Performance with Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Systems 4 Availability 4 Manageability 4 Performance 5 Highly Efficient Oracle VM Environments with Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance 6 Private Cloud Integration 6 Conclusion 7 ORACLE ZFS STORAGE APPLIANCE: IDEAL STORAGE FOR VIRTUALIZATION AND PRIVATE CLOUDS Introduction The Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance family of products can support 10x more virtual machines (VMs) per storage system (compared to conventional NAS filers), while reducing cost and complexity and improving performance. Data center managers have learned that virtualization environment service- level agreements (SLAs) can live and die on the behavior of the storage supporting them. Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance products are rapidly becoming the systems of choice for some of the world’s most complex virtualization environments for three simple reasons. Their cache-centric architecture combines DRAM and flash, which is ideal for multiple and diverse workloads. Their sophisticated multithreading processing environment easily handles many concurrent data streams and the unparalleled

The unified storage model enables you to simultaneously run a variety of application workloads while benefitting from advanced data services. The first-class performance characteristics of the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance are illustrated by the results of industry-standard benchmarks like SPC-1, SPC-2 and SPECsfs. As a unified storage solution, the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance provides an excellent base for building Windows solutions with iSCSI or Fibre Channel block storage for Microsoft Exchange Server, for example, and NFS or SMB file storage for Microsoft Windows client access. This paper discusses the performance tuning available as part of the infrastructure of the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance to support Microsoft Exchange Server in various scenarios. The test procedure used throughout this document is based on the Microsoft Exchange Solution Reference Program tools – JETstress – which is designed to simulate Microsoft Exchange Server disk I/O load and to produce performance statistics on the resulting operations.

One of the tools available to the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance administrator is the Shadow Migration feature. Shadow Migration allows the administrator to move data from legacy systems via NFS and to serve the file systems that were previously held on a legacy system, or systems to the same client base, with the added features and abilities unique to Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance. For the purpose of this document the file systems are defined as follows: » Legacy file system. This is the definitive data source at the beginning of the data migration process that resides on legacy storage. » Replacement file system. This is the migration destination that typically resides on the replacement storage.
