Notes : Performance is in Internal Throughput Rate (ITR) ratio based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput that any user will experience will vary depending upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve throughput improvements equivalent to the performance ratios stated here. IBM hardware products are manufactured from new parts, or new and serviceable used parts. Regardless, our warranty terms apply. All customer examples cited or described in this presentation are presented as illustrations of the manner in which some customers have used IBM products and the results they may have achieved. Actual environmental costs and performance characteristics will vary depending on individual customer configurations and conditions. This publication was produced in the United States. IBM may not offer the products, services or features discussed in this document in other countries, and the information may be subject to change without notice. Consult your local IBM business contact for information on the product or services available in your area. All statements regarding IBM's future direction and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice, and represent goals and objectives only. Information about non-IBM products is obtained from the manufacturers of those products or their published announcements. IBM has not tested those products and cannot confirm the performance, compatibility, or any other claims related to non-IBM products. Questions on the capabilities of non-IBM products should be addressed to the suppliers of those products. Prices subject to change without notice.

GHz does matter – It is the "rising tide that lifts all boats" – It is especially important for CPU-intensive applications GHz is not the only dimension that matters – System z focus is on balanced system design across many factors • Frequency, pipeline efficiency, energy efficiency, cache / memory design, I/O design System performance is not linear with frequency – Need to use LSPR+ System z capacity planning tools for real client / workload sizing System z has been on consistent path while others have oscillated between extremes – Growing frequency steadily, with occasional jumps/step functions (G4 in 1997, z10 in 2008) z10 leverages technology to get the most out of high-frequency design – Low-latency pipeline – Dense packaging (MCM) allows MRU cooling which yields more power-efficient operation – Virtualization technology (etc.) allows consistent performance at high utilization, which makes CPU power-efficiency a much smaller part of the system/data-center power consumption picture 7 z10 Hardware IBM System z © 2010 IBM Corporation Industry’s Approach to Integrated Systems Performance Languages, Application Software Tuning, Efficient Programming Microprocessor frequency will no Middleware longer be the dominant driver of Dynamic optimization, system level performance Assist Threads, Scale-out and small SMPs will System Level Morphing Support, continue to out pace scale-up Fast Computation Migration, Power Optimization, Compiler growth Support Systems will increasingly rely on Compiler Support, modular components for continued Morphing, performance leadership Multiple Cores, SMT, Systems will be designed with the Chip Level Accelerators, ability to dynamically manage and Power Shifting, optimize power Interconnect Circuits Integration over the entire stack, Packaging, from semiconductor technology to Efficient Cooling, end-user applications, will replace Technology Dense SRAM, eDRAM scaling as the major driver of Optics increased system performance Memory 8 z10 Hardware IBM System z © 2010 IBM Corporation Agenda System z10 EC System z10 BC Overview Overview Architecture Architecture MCM PU Chip zEnterprise System z196 Accelerator Overview SC Chip Architecture Book Layout Connectivity Hardware Development Inter Book Connectivity Firmware Development IO Connectivity Ethernet Connectivity Crypto Capacity on Demand Green IT High Availability Operating Systems
