G   DEC 7000 AXP Data Center Servers: 21st Century Computing Starts Today G   ---------------------------------------------------------------------    K   DEC 7000 AXP (TM) servers are members of Digital's 64-bit family of Alpha C   AXP (TM) servers designed for the rigorous demands of data center A   computing.  They offer single or multiprocessing capability for H   mission-critical technical and commercial applications that previouslyJ   required larger, more costly systems -- applications such as transactionD   processing, general ledger, securities trading, signal processing,E   molecular modeling, and imaging, to name only a few.  If you need a D   high-performance system, you'll find that you can "rightsize" yourJ   application on a DEC 7000 AXP server and get powerful performance at low   cost.    K   DEC 7000 AXP servers are the industry's most expandable servers; they can F   grow as your needs grow.  The DEC 7000 AXP modular platform lets youF   improve performance in a number of different dimensions -- symmetricH   multiprocessing (SMP), larger memory, more I/O bandwidth, greater diskI   capacity, Prestoserve (TM), and clustered systems -- all while building L   upon your current investments.  And Digital's track record of reliability,K   service, and support ensures that the DEC 7000 AXP production system will    not let you down.    I   Digital's newest data center solution offers a choice of open operating L   system environments: OpenVMS AXP or the UNIX (R)-based DEC OSF/1 (TM) AXP.E   And DEC 7000 AXP servers provide seamless integration with servers, H   workstations, and PCs from other computer vendors, as well as Digital.L   Outstanding hardware and software investment protection is ensured through@   Network Application Support (NAS) and client/server computing.   E   With exceptional performance, the highest levels of reliability and J   dependability, the utmost flexibility and expandability, and the world'sI   fastest RISC processor, Digital's DEC 7000 AXP servers are 21st century (   systems for today's data center needs!   $   Most Expandable Data Center Server$   ==================================H   DEC 7000 AXP servers provide both balanced performance and outstandingM   configuration flexibility.  Standard on the DEC 7000 AXP is an internal 128 M   bit wide synchronous system bus, which provides 800 MB/sec peak (640 MB/sec L   sustained) bandwidth, virtually eliminating the potential for bottlenecks.M   Support for up to six CPUs, seven memory arrays (ranging from 64 MB to 2 GB D   capacity), and four XMI or Futurebus+ I/O channels allows users toK   configure large systems to suit a wide variety of needs. The CPU, memory, C   and I/O can all be upgraded over time, with future generations of 0   components. Today's investments are protected.   L   SCSI-2, DSSI, and SDI based storage are supported in the DEC 7000 AXP. TheH   SCSI-2 disks reside in BA-350 modular storage arrays within the systemK   cabinet and expander cabinets.  Each storage shelf holds as many as seven J   SCSI devices.  A total of 20 modular storage shelves can be accommodatedK   internally on an expanded DEC 7000 AXP -- bringing the total to 140 GB of J   local SCSI-2 storage.  DSSI and SDI storage are external to the DEC 7000I   AXP, providing more than 10,000 gigabytes of disk storage in an OpenVMS H   clustered configuration -- easily enough capacity for the largest data   center applications.   E   The balanced I/O subsystem on the DEC 7000 AXP provides substantial L   throughput (one 100 MB/sec XMI I/O channel is standard). That capacity canH   be greatly expanded by the addition of up to three more 12-slot XMI orM   9-slot 180 MB/sec Futurebus+ I/O channels, for a total I/O bandwidth of 400 H   MB/sec.  The ability to access third-party I/O adapters and devices is#   provided via Futurebus+ adapters.    K   Prestoserve is offered to increase the NFS (R) responsiveness of DEC 7000 F   AXP servers operating with DEC OSF/1 AXP.  Prestoserve significantlyI   improves NFS throughput in heavy workloads, so file servers can support 1   more clients and provide better response times.       /   Unsurpassed Performance and Price/Performance /   ============================================= I   The DEC 7000 AXP server offers the highest level of performance and the K   best price/performance of any data center system on the market today. The M   reason for this success is the 182 MHz DECchip 21064. With SMP, performance B   is increased six-fold -- all within the same cabinet and at very   competitive prices.       High Availability Features   ==========================I   The DEC 7000 AXP server is designed to meet the highest reliability and L   availability needs of data centers today -- and tomorrow.  Data protectionD   and security features support your data center's need for privacy,H   confidentiality, integrity, and accountability.  The CPU technology isM   based on Digital's proven high-reliability CMOS technology.  ECC protection K   is provided on the system bus, on all memory modules, and on the 4 MB CPU D   write-back cache. The power system uses several power conditioning7   functions to protect against high-voltage transients.    K   An optional N+1 power system allows for higher system availability in the K   event of a power regulator failure.  Systems can be configured with up to I   three power regulators per cabinet, ensuring that even the most heavily L   configured systems can keep operating if a power regulator fails. OptionalL   system-level UPS (Uninterruptible Power System) capability is available toH   support *all* elements within the CPU and I/O expansion cabinets: CPU,G   memory, I/O channels and devices, and in-cabinet disk storage.  Plus, I   volume shadowing and warm swap of disks are supported, thereby ensuring %   exceptional levels of availability.    8   Ethernet, DSSI, CI, and FDDI OpenVMS Clustered Systems8   ======================================================F   OpenVMS clustered systems are years ahead of the competition, makingF   Digital the world's largest supplier of high-availability solutions.K   Clustering allows multiple computer systems to share disks and spread the K   computing load across multiple CPUs.  Through clustering, a collection of E   processors and storage elements can operate as one system.  OpenVMS K   clustered systems represent yet another way to grow DEC 7000 AXP servers.    H   The DEC 7000 AXP server supports Ethernet-based Local Area Clusters, aI   low-cost avenue to resource sharing, centralized system management, and .   increased data storage for work group users.   K   DSSI clustered systems offer a cost-effective, entry-level option for the H   user whose business and computing needs require clustering capability.H   Should availability, online storage, and performance needs grow in theF   future, the DSSI clustered system can be integrated with a high-end,   CI-based clustered system.   L   CI clustered systems support multiple paths to provide higher availabilityI   and performance for business-critical computing.  Over 10,000 gigabytes L   (that's 10 terabytes!) of storage can be supported by DEC 7000 AXP serversK   in a CI clustered configuration.  This is a phenomenal amount of storage, -   offering both growth and high availability.    K   FDDI clustered configurations connect geographically dispersed sites into L   an FDDI network, which can provide either redundant data center operationsL   or consolidate the management of the data center sites at one location. InI   all clustered systems -- whether the interconnect is FDDI, CI, DSSI, or B   Ethernet -- all data is available to all systems on the cluster.      Innovative Packaging   ====================H   DEC 7000 AXP ADVANTAGE-SERVER systems offer outstanding, value-priced,L   balanced configurations -- complete with CPU, memory, I/O channels, disks,L   tape, CD-ROM, base operating system, and Network Application Support (NAS)J   software.  They also give you the flexibility to add components, such as   user licenses, as needed.    F   When workspace is at a premium, you can stack system components in aF   19-inch rackmount cabinet.  Up to three CPUs with as much as 6 GB ofE   memory, two Ethernet ports, four disk controllers, and one optional(K   Futurebus+ or XMI I/O channel can all be mounted in the same rack -- withe4   no increase in the amount of floor space required.  o!   Exceptional Service and Supporti!   ===============================oB   Whether the mission of your DEC 7000 AXP is technical computing,J   client-server computing, enterprise integration, or rightsizing, DigitalL   has the consulting, technical, and support services to help you.
