The Problem:
Blade to blade communication flows north-
south through the TOR, causing latency from
request / response traffic. Added network latency
will impact the overall workload the servers can
support.
Network Switching and Why it Matters
Communication
between blades
requires traffic
to TOR
The Flex System Difference:
Do more with your servers and reduce
network delays. Node to Node
communication happens within the
chassis.
Why this matters:�Reduces switch latency
�Additional servers needed to overcome
performance loss in network delays
�Low latency, web-serving, and database
apps create significant server to server
chatter and stress on the network
Communication
is contained
within chassis
running at 10GB
