Running #PostgreSQL and looking for a performance boost? Take a look at the possible performance gains with Linux hugepages. I was able to get +12% transaction rate improvement with no code changes. n0derunner.com/2019/03/perfor…

1.5M IOPS at 200usec on HCI. Very nice.

A #Nutanix competitor is making baseless claims that VM density is less on #AHV our next generation hypervisor compared to their hypervisor. Here's a density example for desktops with a number of examples which show different Windows 10 releases. #AHV for the win! 🥇 #HCI #CIO

My X-Ray session from #cmgimpact2019 conference is now available. cmg.org/2019/03/impact… Regrettably requires CMG subscription though.

#HCI Assessment Criterion: SDS Storage Efficiency #vSAN 🍌 Requires 30% "slack" space for cluster maintenance 👎 #Nutanix 🥇 ADSF avoids the requirement for large amounts of slack space as I/O is dynamically highly distributed in-line & balancing occurs at a 4MB granularity. ✅

#HCI Assessment Criterion: Storage Platform Extensions #vSAN 🍌 VMs must be evacuated from the host for vSAN upgrades 👎 Slow upgrades 👎 #Nutanix 🥇 VMs do not need to be evacuated for AOS upgrades ✅ I/O dynamically redirected across the cluster ✅ Fast upgrades ✅

#HCI Assessment Criterion: SDS Storage Resiliency With dedupe & compression enabled: #vSAN 🍌 Any single drive failure = the entire disk group offline 👎 Entire disk group needs to be rebuilt 👎 #Nutanix 🥇 Any single drive failure = a single failure ✅ Single drive rebuild ✅

#HCI Assessment Criterion: SDS Storage Resiliency #vSAN 🍌 Rebuilding after some failures is delayed 1 hour 👎 Unnecessary risk to data 👎 #Nutanix 🥇 Rebuilds after any component failure initiates immediately ✅ Maximum resiliency ✅

#HCI Assessment Criterion: SDS Storage Performance #vSAN 🍌 Writes hit a single cache drive per disk group 👎 Higher Drive wear rates 👎 Lower performance 👎 #Nutanix 🥇 Distributed writes across all flash devices ✅ Lower drive wear rates ✅ Higher Resiliency/Performance ✅

#HCI Assessment Criterion: SDS Storage Operations #vSAN 🍌 Expanding capacity to existing nodes or adding new nodes requires manual rebalancing 👎 Complexity 👎 #Nutanix 🥇 Expanding capacity is dynamically balanced in the write IO path ✅ Zero click operation ✅ Simplicity ✅
