3. Data Center Infrastructure Upon completion of this module, you will be able to: List the five core elements of a Data Center infrastructure. Describe the role of each element in supporting business activities. Describe the requirements of storage systems for optimally supporting business activities. Describe the challenges and activities in managing the storage systems of a data center.

4. The Core Elements Applications Databases – Database Management System (DBMS) and the physical and logical storage of data Servers/Operating Systems Networks Storage Arrays

5. An Example Consider an order processing system consisting of: Application for order entry. Database Management System (DBMS) to store customer and product information. Server/Operating System on which the Application and Database programs are run. Networks that provide – Connectivity between Clients and the Application/Database Server – Connectivity between the Server and the Storage system. Storage Array. Local Area Network Storage Area Network Storage Array Client Server Application User Interface Database

6. An Example..Closer Look A customer order is entered via the Application User Interface on a client. Local Area Network Storage Area Network Client Server Application User Interface Storage Array

7. An Example..Closer Look A customer order is entered via the Application User Interface on a client The client accesses the Server over a Local Area Network. Storage Area Network Client Server Storage Array Local Area Network

8. An Example..Closer Look A DBMS uses the operating system on the server to read and write this data to the physical location on a disk. Storage Area Network Client Server O/S and DBMS Storage Array Local Area Network

9. An Example..Closer Look A DBMS uses the operating system on the server to read and write this data to the physical location on disk. A Network provides the communication link between the server and the storage array, and transports the read/write commands and data between the server and the storage array. Storage Area Network Client Server Storage Array Local Area Network

10. An Example..Closer Look A DBMS uses the operating system on the server to read and write this data to the physical location on disk. A Network provides the communication link between the client and the server, and transports the read/write commands and data between the server and the storage array. A storage array receives the read/write commands and data from the server and performs the necessary operations to store the data on the physical disks. Storage Area Network Client Server Storage Array Local Area Network Database

11. An Example.. Optimal Order Processing The Application should be optimized for fast interaction with the DBMS. The tables in the Database should be constructed with care so that the number of read/write operations can be minimized. The Server should have sufficient CPU and memory resources to satisfy Application and DBMS needs. The Networks should provide fast communication between Client and Server, as well as Server and Storage Array. The Storage Array should service the read/write requests from the Server for optimal performance

12. An Example.. A Final Look at Data Access When the DBMS receives a request from the Application: It first searches the Server memory. If data is found there, the operation takes, perhaps, a millisecond. If not, it then uses the Operating System to request the data from the Storage Array. Dedicated high speed networks transport this request to the Storage Array. Intelligent Storage Arrays can deliver the requested data within a few milliseconds. They are also typically configured to protect data in the event of drive failures.
