Using our OpenRack:Ready Soluti Solution

Design Requirements• Stand alone share nothing architecture dedicated

to Marklogic NoSQL Database

• Extensible architecture that is easy to expand and grow

• Segregated production and staging environments

• Automated provisioning and orchestration that allows deployment of all flavors of Marklogic nodes (Evaluator Nodes & Data Nodes) in 30 minutes or less

• Full redundancy for network, power and processors

• Software defined networking with low-latency (3.8us or less) high speed network connectivity between Marklogic nodes and racks

• Marklogic to provide data redundancy through multi-node writes

• 100Gbe rack and core network connectivity uplinks

• Deployed on bare metal servers with a minimum of 384GB of memory

• Intel E5 V4 processors with 8 cores to support Marklogic V9 encryption

• Includes a minimum of 4.8TB’s of enterprise high speed SSD or NVMe storage per physical server (1,200,000 IOPS minimum in total per server)

• Two 10Gbe connections per physical server

• Local encrypted S3 storage for backup and recovery

• Includes 24x7 support with 4 hour or less response

Deliver an affordable high performance platform for a scale-out Marklogic v9 deployment:

Our Architectural Approach• Use common sense in the architecture

• Leverage the software vendors to optimize platform for use case

• Implement redundancy when it makes sense without dramatically increasing costs

• Don’t try to be all things to everyone – pick your battles where you can achieve your greatest victories (cost, delivery, performance)

• Build to grow when it makes sense to grow

• No “sacred cows”

• Cattle vs pets mentality

• Offer flexible cost effective architecture that doesn’t lock clients into to expensive solutions

• Support but also teach

OpenRack:Ready Solution• Rack based appliance deployment – factory built, integrated and configured

• All US manufactured hardware

• Includes servers, network, storage, rack, PDU’s, optics, cables and cabling

• Shipped in rack to client’s data center – just add power and core network connectivity

• Ultra dense rack architecture – 4x more compute capacity per rack versus traditional server deployments

• Non-contiguous rack deployments

• Share nothing (network, storage, compute) architecture – dedicated to Marklogic

• Cooperative design with contributions from PRX, customer, Marklogic, Intel and Mirantis

• Private cloud deployed with automated provisioning and configuration using Mirantis OpenStack

• Proven reference architecture that has been successfully deployed at some of the largest organizations in the world including AT&T, Apple, PayPal, Volkswagen, USDA, etc., etc.

Optimized Proven Deployment Processes

Custom Rack SKU’sOpenRack:Ready designs solutions that meet your application requirements with the right proportion of high speed software defined networking, high performance/high density compute nodes and software defined storage options. Mirantis OpenStack is added for self-service on-demand provisioning.

Precision Cabling & IntegrationA detailed cabling layout of networking cables, power cords and PDU’s will be designed and installed at our integration facility to optimize cable length, air cooling and allow service access when hot swapping units. The only cabling required in your data center is core network connectivity and power.

Rack Appliance Deployment

+ + + +

Start with a single rack and add racks as needed to expand Marklogic capacity.

Each rack includes network, compute, storage and cloud management.

• Total Storage: 196TB’s of local SSD storage

• Total Memory: 15,744GB’s across 41 Marklogic nodes

• Rack Cost: $xxx

Software Defined Networking (SDN) Switching• Must be programmable through the OpenStack API

• Big buffers and low latency ideal for east-west traffic generated by grid and scale-out architectures (like Marklogic); traditional networks not well suited for east-west traffic

• 10Gbe ports with “least cost” upgrade path to 25Gbe, 40Gbe and 100Gbe

• Combined switching and routing in as single platform to enable VXLAN

• Large routing tables for enterprise deployments

• Non-blocking throughput between racks (no network bottlenecks)

• Span multiple racks with Leaf-Spine architecture

• Centralized management

• Let OpenStack do most of the networking after day one deployment
