NOISY NEIGHBORS IN THE CLOUD WITHINTEL® XEON® E5 V4 FAMILY AND CACHE ALLOCATION TECHNOLOGY

THE PROBLEM:DEALING WITH

“NOISY NEIGHBORS”

We all know a garage band practicing next door can be a nuisance. Noisy neighbors in cloud computing are no different. In this sense, though, a “noisy neighbor” is a co-tenant that gobbles up bandwidth and other resources, slowing down and negatively affecting performance. It's a problem AppFormix* set out to solve.

THE SOLUTION:

THE RESULT:

By using elements of the Intel® Resource Director Technology (Intel® RDT), introduced in the Intel®

Xeon®E5 v4 family, AppFormix was able to increase visibility, control, and performance isolation between applications — effectively cutting out all the “noise.”

Cache Allocation Technology, part of the Intel® Xeon® E5 v4 processor family, insulates against

noise to boost performance for improved throughput results and prioritized NGINX* web

server yields to contain "noisy neighbors."

Cloud and data center orchestration perfor-mance improved up to 27%1.

Web server response time improved up to 51%2.

Neutralizing noisy neighbors thanks to Intel® RDT in its software and server platforms, AppFormix enhanced

enforcement of priority levels, provided advanced provisioning capabilities, and mitigated noisy neighbor

effects.

The AppFormix software suite leveraged Intel® CAT to reduce latency, improving the experience for end

users.

Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performancetests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specic computer systems, components, software, operations, and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products.
