  • Availability Digest
    the Availability Digest Parallel Sysplex – Fault Tolerance from IBM April 2008 IBM’s Parallel Sysplex, HP’s NonStop server, and Stratus’ ftServer are today the primary industry fault-tolerant offerings that can tolerate any single failure, thus leading to very high levels of availability. The Stratus line of fault-tolerant computers is aimed at seamlessly protecting industry- standard servers running operating systems such as Windows, Unix, and Linux. As a result, ftServer does not compete with the other two systems, Parallel Sysplex and NonStop servers, which do compete instead in the large enterprise marketplace. In this article, we will explore IBM’s Parallel Sysplex and its features that address high availability. IBM’s Parallel Sysplex IBM’s Parallel Sysplex systems are multiprocessor clusters that can support from two to thirty-two mainframe nodes (typically S/390 or zSeries systems).1 A Parallel Sysplex system is nearly linearly scalable up to its 32-processor limit. A node may be a separate system or a logical partition (LPAR) within a system. The nodes do not have to be identical. They can be a mix of any servers that support the Parallel Sysplex environment. The nodes in a Parallel Sysplex system interact as an active/active architecture. The system allows direct, concurrent read/write access to shared data from all processing nodes without sacrificing data integrity. Furthermore, work requests associated with a single transaction or database query can be dynamically distributed for parallel execution based on available processor capacity of the nodes in the Parallel Sysplex cluster. Parallel Sysplex Architecture All nodes in a Parallel Sysplex cluster connect to a shared disk subsystem.

  • Fiber Optics Based Parallel Computer Architecture
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 1, Issue 2, November-2010 1 ISSN 2229-5518 Fiber Optics Based Parallel Computer Architecture A.M V RAGHAVENDRA, B.VUDA SREENIVASARAO ABSTRACT : Computer architecture is the conceptual design and fundamental operational structure of a computer system. It's a blueprint and functional description of requirements and design implementations for the various parts of a computer, focusing largely on the way by which the central processing unit (CPU) performs internally and accesses addresses in memory. In this paper, we present an overview of parallel computer architectures and discuss the use of fiber optics for clustered or coupled processors. Presently, a number of computer systems take advantage of commercially available fiber optic technology to interconnect multiple processors, thereby achieving improved performance or reliability for a lower cost than if a single large processor had been used. Optical fiber is also used to distribute the elements of a parallel architecture over large distances; these can range from tens of meters to alleviate packaging problems to tens of kilometers for disaster recovery applications. Index Terms: Network topologies, Transputer, Sky HPC-1, CMU Wrap, Tsukuba CP-PACS/2048, Parallel Sysplex & GDPS, MANs —————————— —————————— I. INTRODUCTION will use to categorize architectures we describe in other OT all of the parallel computer architectures discussed in sections of the paper. Nthis paper use fiber optic connectivity, but they are 1. Speed - There are engineering limits to how fast any single presented as a context for those systems that are currently using processor can compute using current technology. Parallel optics. We will give a few specific examples of parallel architectures can exceed these limits by splitting up the computer systems that use optical fiber, in particular the computation among multiple processors.

  • Handelsbanken Turns to Parallel Sysplex October 2009
    the Availability Digest www.availabilitydigest.com Handelsbanken Turns to Parallel Sysplex October 2009 Founded in 1871, Svenska Handelsbanken (www.handelsbanken.com) survived two world wars and multiple recessions to become one of the largest banks in the Nordic countries. Headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, it has more than 460 branches in Sweden and 240 branches in the rest of Scandinavia and throughout the world, including the U.S., England, Singapore, China, and Russia. The bank offers a full range of services to corporate, institutional, and private customers. It is a global universal bank that covers the traditional areas of corporate financing, investment banking and trading as well as consumer banking. It provides corporate and individual clients with deposit products, loans, credit cards, and other banking services. Subsidiaries operate in several related areas, including life insurance, mortgages, pensions, fund management, and Internet banking. An innovative feature of Handelsbanken’s Internet services is its unique branch office web sites and direct e-mail addresses to each branch for enhanced customer service. Facing the Need for Continuous Availability Handelsbanken realized that the growing dependence by its customers on online banking and credit cards required these critical services to be continuously available. Should online banking services go down, customers could not query their account balances, execute bill payments, transfer funds between accounts, or accomplish the many other banking tasks that they were accustomed to doing from their PCs. Furthermore, if the bank’s card services failed, customers using cards issued by Handelsbanken would not be able to make in-store or online purchases nor get cash from ATM machines.
