Welcome to the Waitless World
Based on IBM Internal Measurements/Projections on 2-socket/4U POWER8 systems versus 2-socket/4U POWER7 systems
POWER8 simplifies datacenter and delivers
improved core performance – up to 2x vs POWER7
 In scale-out environments POWER8 delivers the same
performance in less than ½ the footprint of POWER7
 ½ reduction in per-core software licenses with POWER8
processor-based systems due to improved core
performance
 Improved core architecture
 Improved cache structure
 Improved threading
 Management & energy cost reduction

Comparing Power
System RAS features
POWER8 processor-based 1s and 2s Systems
IBM POWER System S814, S822, S824
These servers are aimed at replacing POWER7 and previous generation
processor-based 1s and 2s servers. Responding to the increased performance
and capacity, these 1s and 2s systems were designed with enhancements to
both Processor and System platform level RAS characteristics compared to
predecessor POWER7 and POWER7+ processor-based systems.
Outside of the processor itself, perhaps the two most noticeable system
enhancements are:
 The ability to remove/replace PCIe adapters without the need to shut down
the system or terminate partitions
 The use of what was previously considered to be Enterprise Memory using
custom DIMMs with an IBM memory-buffer chip on-board each DIMM and
featuring spare DRAM modules
The first feature reduces planned outages for repair of I/O adapters. The
second is intended to reduce planned outages for repair of DIMMs as well as
unplanned outages due to DIMM faults.
