Designed to support large-scale transaction processing and database applications, the IBM Power 795 server is ideal for workloads that require extraordinary scalability, capability and bandwidth.
The Power 795 server features the ability to support the highest processor speed in TurboCore mode, supporting Power 7 CPUs running at 4.25GHz, and double the cache.
Able to support multiple AIX UNIX, IBM i, and x86 Linux workloads on a single system, the Power 795 can also serve as a platform to consolidate multiple workloads, and distribute computing power dynamically and automatically with PowerVM technology.
The IBM Power 795 server supports processor book technologies, with up to 8 processor books per systems. Each 4-socket processor book can run up to 32 computing cores with 8-core or 6-core Power 7 CPUs, 32 DIMM slots, 4 I/O ports and dual service processors. Other features of the Power 595 include:
| IBM Power 795 Specifications | |
|---|---|
| POWER7 CPU Options | 192 3.72GHz 256 4.0GHz 128 4.25GHz (TurboCore) |
| L2 cache | 256KB per core |
| L3 cache | 4MB per core (eDRAM) or 8MB L3 cache per core (eDRAM) |
| PCIe I/O drawers | 1-32 24” I/O Drawers |
| Adapter slots | 20 PCIe slots in each 24” I/O drawer, 640 maximum per system |
| GX slots | 4 GX++ per processor book, 32 GX++ adapter ports per system |
| Machine type model | 9119-FHB |
The Intelligent Thread technology included with the IBM Power 795 allows workloads to be optimized automatically by switching between one, two or four execution threads per processor core to optimize application throughput. With this feature, you can deliver the highest per-thread performance or maximum system throughput, based on the requirements of the application that resides on the server.
With the IBM Power 795 servers, you can utilize its modular building block architecture by adding new nodes to your system with Hot-node Add.
In addition, the Power 795 systems include a variety of different Capacity on Demand (CoD) options. In addition to installing processors on the fly, they can demo them on a 30-day trial called Trial CoD. Processors can also be activated and deactivated on a day-by-day basis, or On/f CoD), or the system can processors installed and ready to activate via Capacity Upgrade on Demand (CuOD).
The IBM TurboCore technology enabled in the IBM Power 795 servers optimizes processors for core frequency and cache utilization, delivering maximum capacity and performance for database and transaction workloads.Intelligent cache can flow from core to core, depending on where's its needed to further optimize workloads.
So, a Power 795 system can be booted in TurboCore more for maximum performance per core, or in MaxCore mode, which is optimized for throughput. In MaxCore mode, up to 256 processor cores can be enabled, running at 4GHz,while in TurboCore mode
The IBM Active Memory Expansion capability enables those who have IBM Power 795 servers to double their memory capacity so it is much larger than the actual physical memory, without having to install additional memory devices. Optimized for SAP workloads, Active Memory Expansion helps optimizes workloads to improve application performance and maximize the server ROI.
By utilizing the IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager with Energy Scale technology, you can enable Intelligent Energy management features, and dramatically improve energy efficiency and conserve power. The Power 7 processor included in the IBM Power 795 servers can be operated at a high frequency if environment conditions permit, for increased performance, or be set to operate at a reduced frequency, to experience significant energy savings.
