Technology for better business outcomes

AMD Virtualization (AMDV)
Advantages of AMDs Direct Connect
Architecture for Software Virtualization

64-bit and dual-core computing

provides more memory and CPU
resources for virtual machines
Integrated memory controller enables
fast memory access for the memory-
intensive virtualization environment
HyperTransport technology to
optimize resource sharing between
virtual machines
Power efficiency without compromising
performance enables greater CPU/OS
density per platform Reduces the bottlenecks of the traditional
20-year old front-side bus architecture

The AMD Advantage for Software
Virtualization
Direct Connect Architecture

Front-side Bus (FSB) Architecture Direct Connect Architecture

CPUs access memory and I/O over single bus and Directly connected CPUs, memory, and I/O
separate controller which can: which can:
Decrease performance of virtual machines Increase performance of virtual machines
Decrease number of virtual machines Increase number of virtual machines

Translates into better utilization by efficiently

consolidating more work loads on a server

Direct Connect Architecture + AMDV =
Improved Performance
Front-side Bus (FSB) Architecture + VT
Memory Controller not virtualization-aware
More memory management done by software
Untagged memory architecture means more overhead
when switching between host/guests
Results:
Decreased performance of virtual machines
Decreased number of virtual machines
29 November

Direct Connect Architecture + AMDV
Virtualization-aware memory controller
More memory management done in hardware
Tagged memory architecture means more efficient
switching between host/guests
Results:
Increased performance of virtual machines
Increased number of virtual machines
Direct Connect Architecture + AMDV =
Better isolation

Front-side Bus (FSB) Architecture + VT Direct Connect Architecture + AMDV

No equivalent functionality External access protect (DEV)
To be highly reliable, hypervisor must handle all attempts Mechanism that hypervisor can use to lock a device
by guests to control device activity to an specific guest OS
Results Results
Hypervisor is faced with a choice when handling guest Guests have more direct control of attached devices,
devices access: either lower performance or while ensuring that no activities of the guests can
lower reliability crash hypervisor

Hardware-Enabled Virtualization
(AMDV) benefits
AMD Virtualization provides modifications designed to
improve x86-base virtualization
Instructions added to help reduce complexity of
virtualization software
Reducing overhead by selectively intercepting
information destined for guest
Enables Guest OSs to run unmodified for a
larger base of virtualization software
Increased isolation to improve security of virtual
machines
Offers architectural enhancements to improve
efficiency of switching between hypervisor and
the guest OSs

SAS now!
Investment protection 3
Small Form Factor (SFF) SAS is the new
universal drive
Higher reliability
1.7 million MTBF (vs. 1.5 million for
3.5 SCSI)
Better performance
Serial point-to-point connections 5 5/16
More spindles per platform
Flexible configurations
Mix and match SAS and SATA drives
More drive bays in each server
Greater efficiency/improved thermals
Half the power consumption of 3.5 drives
Smaller form factor enables better airflow
