Description: IBM Power8 Power E870 Server

Details:
The IBM Power E870 Server, also known as the 9119-MME model, is a robust and scalable system designed to deliver top-tier enterprise reliability, availability, flexibility, and performance. This server can be expanded by connecting up to four E870 units, enabling a system with up to 192 cores running at speeds of up to 4.02GHz and supporting a massive 16TB of memory. It effectively replaces the Power 795 in the IBM Power Systems lineup and can scale from a single node to a maximum of four nodes.

The E870 supports various core configurations, with options for 4.19GHz and 4.35GHz (refer to the provided chart). With a maximum memory capacity of 32TB, it is specifically engineered for in-memory processing, catering to the most demanding and mission-critical business requirements.

Designed with IBM DB2 users in mind, this server is optimized for IBM DB2 with BLU Acceleration, offering industry-leading performance while reducing operational costs. IBM DB2 is a highly flexible and scalable SQL relational database system that can be accessed as a cloud service on Bluemix, eliminating the need for on-premises hardware. However, access to DB2 on Bluemix requires a fixed monthly fee.

Moreover, the server features OpenStack cloud controller functionality, referred to as PowerVC by IBM, which integrates with PowerVM Enterprise. Unlike the Linux-only LC series, the E series or E-class servers run PowerVM rather than PowerKVM, enhancing virtualization capabilities.

Key Features:
- Supports one to four 5U system nodes
- Includes one 2U 19-inch rack-mount system control unit drawer
- Compact design with only 12U for a two-node system or 22U for a four-node system
- One processor feature per system node
- Offers static or mobile processor activation features on a per-core basis
- Each system node includes 32 CDIMM slots, with a minimum of 16 populated per node
- Supports Active Memory Expansion, optimized onto the processor chip
- Eight PCIe Gen3 x16 I/O low-profile expansion slots per system node
- Features one slim-line SATA media bay per control unit enclosure
- Equipped with redundant hot-swap AC power supplies
- Includes two HMC ports per service processor
- Supports dynamic logical partitioning and processor and memory Capacity on Demand (CUoD)
- Offers PowerVM Virtualization
- Optional PowerHA for AIX, IBM i, and Linux
- Optional PCIe Gen3 I/O Expansion Drawer with PCIe Gen3 slots
