Amdocs and Intel Deliver Mission-Critical Solutions For WHITE PAPER Intel® and Amdocs Solutions for Telecommunications Providers Amdocs and Intel Deliver Mission-Critical Solutions for Telecom Industry Amdocs on Intel® Xeon® processor-based platforms offers leading edge performance and capability New Technologies Needed to Respond to Increasing Demands Today’s service providers are caught between two competing forces. On the one hand, demands on computing resources are soaring; on the other, the pressure to reduce capital and operating expenditures continues unabated. In response, service providers are looking for new ways to approach a familiar problem: the need to do more for less. “With Intel Xeon processor E7 and Specifically, service providers need higher-performing, more efficient front-end and back-end solutions that can combine to address growing demands, while also reducing E5 family-based servers running total cost of ownership. Red Hat Enterprise Linux, we’re able The Amdocs CES 9 suite provides the innovations service providers desire. It is the only to provide exceptional computing integrated suite that enables service providers to rapidly launch and monetize innova- tive offers, personalize every interaction with real-time insight, and empower customers performance and density, to take control of their experiences across any channel, network, service or device. And with the goal of enabling our because Amdocs CES 9 features back-end support from Linux* and Intel® Xeon® proces- sors, service providers can ensure exceptional computing performance and density to customers to lower their power meet new and emerging customer demands while also reducing hardware costs. consumption and cost.” Nir Levy, Vice President, Technology Research Intel® Xeon® Processor Overview Amdocs The latest Intel® Xeon® processors usher in a new era of intelligent performance that takes compute density to new heights, while delivering best-in-class support for virtualization, consolidation, and cloud computing. Servers based on these processors can help service providers create a standardized, reliable IT infrastruc- ture that helps drive down data center space, power, cooling, and management costs, while providing exceptional performance and reliability, even for the most data-demanding applications. Service Provider Challenges: Rein in Costs While Scaling to Meet the Needs of an Always-On Society We need only look around—at coffee shops or business meetings, for instance—to see that we are in the midst of a communications revolution, in which connectivity has become a fundamental part of customers’ everyday lives. The rise of mobile data over voice is just one of many market dynamics that is changing the way service providers operate.

  • IBM Power® Systems for SAS® Empowers Advanced Analytics Harry Seifert, Laurent Montaron, IBM Corporation
    Paper 4695-2020 IBM Power® Systems for SAS® Empowers Advanced Analytics Harry Seifert, Laurent Montaron, IBM Corporation ABSTRACT For over 40+ years of partnership between IBM and SAS®, clients have been benefiting from the added value brought by IBM’s infrastructure platforms to deploy SAS analytics, and now SAS Viya’s evolution of modern analytics. IBM Power® Systems and IBM Storage empower SAS environments with infrastructure that does not make tradeoffs among performance, cost, and reliability. The unified solution stack, comprising server, storage, and services, reduces the compute time, controls costs, and maximizes resilience of SAS environment with ultra-high bandwidth and highest availability. INTRODUCTION We will explore how to deploy SAS on IBM Power Systems platforms and unleash the full potential of the infrastructure, to reduce deployment risk, maximize flexibility and accelerate insights. We will start by reviewing IBM and SAS’s technology relationship and the current state of SAS products on IBM Power Systems. Then we will look at some of the infrastructure options to deploy SAS 9.4 on IBM Power Systems and IBM Storage, while maximizing resiliency & throughput by leveraging best practices. Next, we will look at SAS Viya, which introduces changes to the underlying infrastructure requirements while remaining able to be deployed alongside a traditional SAS 9.4 operation. We’ll explore the various deployment modes available. Finally, we’ll look at tuning practices and reference materials available for a deeper dive in deploying SAS on IBM platforms. SAS: 40 YEARS OF PARTNERSHIP WITH IBM IBM and SAS have been partners since the founding of SAS.
