More Cores !12 processor cores per socket (50% more than before) that deliver better per core performance !What this means Enjoy better scale up performance, and more throughput per scale out server node.

More Threads !SMT8 – 8 dynamic threads per core, supporting SMT1, 2, 4, & 8 modes dynamically across VMs !What this means You choose – Deploy VM’s in the optimal SMT mode based on application needs.

More Cache !At 100MB, 3X the on-chip cache as POWER7 – plus 128MB of new off-chip cache as well !What this means Memory-intensive applications (like database) will perform better as memory latency is reduced

More Bandwidth !2.3X our prior gen to memory, and 2.4X our prior gen to I/O. !What this means Data-hungry applications (like big data & analytics) will respond twice as fast and scale more efficiently.

CAPI !Open interface allows PCIe3 devices to participate in operations at memory speed without risk. !What this means Gain orders of magnitude application performance with PCI card technology w/o hiring specialized skills

Transactional Memory !Borrowed from the mainframe, this technology speeds up memory writes by reducing contention. !What this means A feature that improved OLTP database performance by 45% on System z is now available on Power.

Native PCIe !Integrating PCIe Gen 3 into the processor boosts performance by eliminating logic overhead. !What this means I/O intensive data applications will run faster due to high bandwidth, low latency communications.

PowerKVM !KVM, the open-source virtualization solution, can be used to manage Linux-only systems. !What this means Data centers can now standardize their clouds with a single open-source virtualization technology.

Based on IBM internal tests comparing IBM DB2 with BLU Acceleration system with a comparably tuned competitor configuration executing a materially identical 2.6TB operational analytics workload in a controlled laboratory environment. Test measured 60 concurrent user report throughput executing identical Cognos report workloads. Report per hour (RPH) metric calculated for each category of reports as total completed reports/hours to completion of all reports in the category. Competitor configuration: HP DL380p, 24 cores, 256GB RAM, Traditional Database, SuSE Linux 11SP3 (Database) and HP DL380p, 16 cores, 384GB RAM, Cognos 10.2.1.1, SuSE Linux 11SP3 (Cognos). IBM configuration: IBM S824, 24 cores, 256GB RAM, DB2 10.5, AIX 7.1 TL2 (Database) and IBM S824, 16 cores, 384GB RAM, Cognos 10.2.1.1, SuSE Linux 11SP3 (Cognos). Results may not be typical and will vary based on actual workload, configuration, applications, queries and other variables in a production environment.

POWER8 thrives on the complexRunning Cognos BI reports and analytics on POWER8 with DB2 with BLU Acceleration versus Ivy Bridge with a traditional database

Larger and more complex queries have more speedup

Based on IBM internal tests comparing the IBM system with a comparably priced, comparably tuned competitor configuration (version available as of 01/01/2013) executing a materially identical online transaction processing workload in a controlled laboratory environment. Tests measured Trade Completion throughput rates to execute identical SQL query workloads. More Trade Completions is indicated by higher Trade Completions/second. Competitor configuration: ¼ Unit (usable uncompressed capacity = 9.5TB) including competitor recommended software options and features. Results may not be typical and will vary based on actual workload, configuration, applications, queries and other variables in a production environment.

This is an IBM internal study designed to replicate a typical IBM customer workload usage in the marketplace. The results were obtained under laboratory conditions, and not in an actual customer environment. IBM's internal workload studies are not benchmark applications, nor are they based on any benchmark standard. As such, customer applications, differences in the stack deployed, and other systems variations or testing conditions may produce different results and may vary based on actual configuration, applications, specific queries and other variables in a production environment. Prices, where applicable, are based on published US list prices for both IBM and competitor, and the cost calculation compares the cost per request for the 3yr life of the machine. 3 year total cost of acquisition comparisons are based on similar expected hardware, software, service & support offerings
