TheES7000 isUnisys'sx86/Windows,Linux andSolaris-based server product line.[1] The "ES7000" brand has been used since 1999, although variants and models within the family support various processor and bus architectures. The server is marketed and positioned as a scale-up platform where scale-out becomes inefficient. Typically the ES7000 is utilized as a platform for homogeneous consolidation, largedatabases (SQL Server andOracle),Business intelligence,Decision Support Systems,ERP,virtualization, as well as largeLinux applicationhosting.

The hardware and software elements of the server are monitored by a software suite known asServer Sentinel.[2]

Architecture

[edit]

Elements of the ES7000 architecture includes

  • Multiple power domains
  • N+1 redundancy for most components
  • Subpod CPU scaling (4 cpu increment)
  • Centralized memory/cache control
  • Shared cache
  • Point to point crossbar connections (fleXbar) among memory, processors, and I/O components
  • Multiple I/OPCI bridges and buses
  • Up to 8 direct I/O bridges each providing 3 independent PCI buses, supporting 96 PCI slots (On 100 and 200 series)
  • Multiple memory storage units that can be combined or used separately

History

[edit]

This server family has undergone several model revisions in its lifetime since 1999. Initially, the servers were standalone—physically the configuration resembled arack and took up a somewhat larger footprint than a rack (Models 100, 130, 200, 230, 550, 400). Second and third generation ES7000s were rack mountable cells 4U or 3U high that fit in standard19" racks.

First generation systems

  • ES7000/100 Series - (1999/2000) Support for 32Xeon processors, 64 GB RAM, 96 PCI slots under Microsoft Windows NT EE and Windows 2000 DC

Second generation systems

[edit]
  • ES7000/200 Series - Support for up to 32 Xeon Processors, 64 GB RAM, 96 PCI slots under Microsoft Windows NT EE and Windows 2000 DC
  • ES7000/230 Series - Support for up to 32 Xeon Processors, 64 GB RAM, 96 PCI slots under Windows 2000 DC and Windows 2003 DC
  • ES7000/130 Series - Support for up to 32Itanium processors

Third generation systems

[edit]

  • ES7000/500 Series (510/420/530/540)
  • ES7000/550 Series - Support for up to 32 Xeon processors, 64 GB RAM, 96 PCI Slots under Windows 2000 DC and Windows 2003 DC
  • ES7000/400 Series (405/410/420/430/440) - Support for up to 32 Itanium processors and 128 GB RAM under Windows 2000 DC and Windows 2003 DC

Fourth generation systems

[edit]
  • ES7000/600 Series - Support for up to 32 Dual Core Xeon or Itanium processors, 256 GB RAM, 40 PCI Slots under Windows 2003 DC
  • ES7000/One Series - Support for up to 32 Dual Core Xeon or Itanium 2 processors, 256 GB RAM, 40 PCI Slots under Windows 2003 DC[3]

Fifth generation systems

[edit]
  • From late 2008, ES7000 7600R ("Kona") scalable from 1 cell of 24 cores to 4 cells of 96 cores of Xeon Hexcore and 1T of memory[4]
  • Hexcore and high IO throughput crossbar make Kona twice the performance of previous top-of-the-line ES7000/one on half the cells, at a fraction of the price and 1/3 less rack space
  • Built for green, scale-up database, scale-up virtualization (HyperV, VMware) and application consolidation workloads gaining performance and cost savings relative to many smaller, scale-out boxes (administration/maintenance, floorspace, heating, cooling)
  • Number 1 TPC-E benchmark[5]

Form factors

[edit]

The ES7000 models are broken down into three form factors.

  • Cabinet/Frame size (A monolithic, midplane architecture, but deeper than a conventional rack)
  • 4U Size Cell with up to 8 processors per cell and 8 PCI slots, up to four cells can be bound together to create a 32 cpu system)
  • 3U Size Cell with up to 4 processor sockets per cell and 5 PCI slots, up to eight cells can be strapped together to create a 32 socket system)

Processors

[edit]

The processors used in the ES7000 are:

  • Intel Xeon
  • Intel Multicore Xeon
  • Intel Itanium and Itanium 2
  • AMD Opteron[6]

Operating systems supported

[edit]

ES7000 servers support theMicrosoft Windowsoperating system both 32-bitXeon and 64-bitItanium,32-bit and64-bit versions of someLinux operating systems, and the Solaris Operating System.
