Comparison Between Huawei E9000 and HP C7000/C3000

Key advantage of Huawei E9000

Huawei FusionServer E9000 (E9000 for short) is a new-generation blade server designed for cloud computing and big data applications based on comprehensive analysis of HP's C7000 (launched in 2007), Cisco's UCS5108 (launched in 2009) and VCE Vblock (launched in 2010).

Huawei Advantage Customer Benefits Competitor' defense and Huawei's HTB Strategy
No. 1 computing density in the industry. Number of processors in a 1U chassis:
● Huawei E9000: 5.3/U
● HP C7000: 3.2/U
● HP C3000: 2.7/U
E9000 provides high computing density and performance. Competitors' defense:
HP C7000 servers are transformed from CPU stacking to CPU+GPU heterogeneous computing.

Huawei HTB strategy:
● The number of GPU nodes occupies only 20% in HC cluster. Heterogeneous computing has limited application.
● The E9000 server (configured with CH220 IO nodes) supports CPU+GPU.
No. 1 storage density in the industry. Number of 2.5" hard disks in a 1U chassis:
 ● Huawei E9000: 12/U
● HP C7000: 9.6/U
● HP C3000: 8/U
High storage density ensures high concurrent read and write performance. The concurrent read and write performance is determined by PCIe bandwidth or hard disk IOPS upper limit. Competitors' defense:  HP D2200sb DAS nodes can be combined with adjacent blades, while Vendor H CH222 nodes cannot.

Huawei's HTB strategy: A D2200sb combined with two adjacent blades provides up to 12 hard disks. However, the D2200sb cannot be combined with E7 4-socket blades. A 2-socket blade of E9000 provides 15 hard disks, and a 4-socket blade provides 8 hard disks. Vendor H's C7000 servers do not support PCIe SSD cards, while E9000 storage nodes (except CH140 and CH240) support PCIe SSD cards.
No. 1 switching capability in the industry. Design bandwidth of the backplane:
● Huawei E9000: 15.6 Tbit/s
●HP  C7000 platinum: 6.144 Tbit/s
The E9000 backplane supports 100GE and IB EDR, maximizing return on investment (ROI). Competitors' defense: The E9000 provides four switch slots, while the HP C7000 provides 8 switch slots.

Huawei's HTB strategy: The E9000 provides multi-plane switch modules. Two switch planes are created in a slot. The E9000 supports hybrid networking of Ethernet +FC SAN, IB, and FCoE modules. Except IB, all E9000 switch modules support layer3 switching, while Vendor H's servers support only layer 2 switching.
No. 1 engineering capability in the industry. Power supply and heat dissipation capability of a full-width slot:
● Huawei E9000:1400 W/40°C
●HP C7000:1200 W/35°C
This feature improves system reliability and availability and reduces the PUE of data centers. Competitors' defense: The temperature of 77% data centers is set to 18°C to 21°C. It is seldom for servers to operate at 40°C. In addition, the servers operating at 40°C consume more power. The E9000 servers do not support three-phase power.

Huawei's HTB strategy: ● According to statistics, 7% power consumption is generated to reduce the temperature by 1°C. Nowadays, the cooling devices account for more than 40% of the devices in data centers. Overcooling causes waste of energy. If the data center temperature increases by 5°C in the world, the total carbon dioxide emission will be reduced by 1.7 million tons and electricity of 24.3 billion degrees will be saved. The E9000 servers use intelligent power management fan modules and orthogonal air duct design, which consumes 5% less power at the same CPU load. ● The E9000 servers support three-phase power supply converted by PDUs.

Key advantage of HP C7000/C3000

Claimed Advantage Customer Benefits Competitor' defense and Huawei's HTB Strategy
10U chassis
● HP C7000: 4 C7000s in a cabinet
● Huawei E9000: 3 E9000s in a cabinet
The high-density design saves floor space. ● The power distribution for a cabinet in 95% data centers is 6 kW to 10 kW, which supports one high-end blade or two to three low-end blades.
● A 42U cabinet can hold three 12U E9000 servers, leaving 6U space for other devices.
Supports 8 interconnected switch modules.
 ● HP C7000: provides 8 slots for switch modules
 ● Huawei E9000: provides 4 slots for switch modules
The C7000 servers support a wide variety of switch modules, allowing flexible networking. ● According Gartner statistics, data center converged networking will be the mainstream networking mode in the near future.
● The E9000 servers support FCoE networking as well as multi-plane networking, offering flexible configuration and deployment.
Compatible with the blade servers of the same vendor.
● HP C7000: supports x86/AMD/work station/Unix blades/NAS gateway/blade tape drive/SAS switch modules
● Huawei E9000: supports only x86 blades.
High compatibility help maximize ROI of customers. x86 servers account for 90% in the server market. The market share of non-x86 servers is decreasing.
● The E9000 CH220/221 nodes support work stations.
● The demand for blade tape drivers is less than 1%. If required, the E9000 server can meet customer requirements by using an external tape drive. The use of SAS switch modules and JBOD causes the similar cost as the IP SAN but offers poorer reliability than IP SAN. If NAS gateway blades are used, the servers must have WSS installed on compute blades and connect to vendor H's SAN storage. This configuration causes high costs and low reliability. Customers can achieve the same purpose by using an external storage

● HP C7000: LCD
● Huawei E9000: touchscreen
The LCD helps maintenance personnel learn about the server status in real time. The Huawei E9000 server provides a touchscreen.
Implements unified management.
● HP C7000: OneView
● Huawei E9000: eSight
OneView implements unified management of computing, storage, and network resources, simplifying management and increasing O&M efficiency. ●Huawei eSight implements unified management of servers.
● Huawei eSight and E9000 internal management modules support stateless computing, implement plug-and-play of E9000 servers in site deployment, equipment migration, and parts replacement.
Provides high power efficiency and optimal heat dissipation.
● Huawei E9000: 1400 W/40°C
● HP C7000: 1200 W/35°C
This feature helps reduce power costs ●If HP C7000 servers use common blades with high power-consuming CPUs, at least 4 to 12 memory modules must be configured.
● The E9000 servers support 1400 W full-width and 700 W half-width nodes, E5-2600 v2 and E7-4800/8800 v2 series processors, and K1/K2/K2000/K4000 /Intel Phi PCIe cards.

Comparison Between Huawei E9000 and Cisco UCS5108

Huawei FusionServer E9000 (E9000 for short) is a new-generation blade server designed for cloud computing and big data applications based on comprehensive analysis of HPE's C7000 (launched in 2007), Cisco's UCS5108 (launched in 2009) and VCE Vblock (launched in 2010).

Huawei Advantage Customer Benefits Competitor' defense and Huawei's HTB Strategy
No. 1 computing density in the industry. Number of processors in a 1U chassis:
● E9000: 5.3/U
● UCS: 2.7/U
E9000 provides high computing density and performance. Competitors' defense: The CH140 compute node of E9000 provides only 8 memory slots and can be configured with a maximum of 24 memory modules. It offers poor memory performance.

Huawei's HTB strategy:
● The memory performance is determined by the communication bandwidth between the memory and the CPU. The memory bandwidth is determined by the maximum number of memory channels and memory frequency. The IvyBridge EP platform supports up to 8 memory channels. The CH140 provides 8-channel memory and supports memory modules of the highest frequency. It provides high read and write performance.
● The top two drawbacks of USC servers in clusters are long delay and poor CPU performance.
No. 1 storage density in the industry. Number of 2.5" hard disks in a 1U chassis:
● E9000: 12/U
● UCS: 2.7/U
High storage density allows large local storage space and high concurrent read and write performance. The concurrent read and write performance is determined by PCIe bandwidth or hard disk IOPS upper limit. Competitors' defense: The CH222 storage nodes of E9000 cannot provide shared storage resources to other blades.

Huawei's HTB strategy: The CH222 running Vendor H DSware software can group the local 15 hard disks as a virtual storage resource pool to support more servers. It implements the SAN storage functions. The DSware computing and storage convergence architecture allows a cabinet to provide 1000 Gbit/s (SAN 128 Gbit/s) concurrent bandwidth and 96 Gbit/s SSD (SAN 12 Gbit/s SAS) throughput.
No. 1 switching capability in the industry. Design bandwidth of the backplane:
● E9000: 15.6 Tbit/s
● UCS: 1.28 Tbit/s
The E9000 backplane supports 100GE and IB EDR, maximizing return on investment (ROI). Competitors' defense: The multi-plane networking of E9000 causes complicated deployment and management. The UCS single switching plane implements convergence of services and management as well as convergence of switching and FC SAN, simplifying deployment.

Huawei's HTB strategy: The UCS servers build a unified computing, storage, and management network based on FCoE Fabric Interconnect. However, the networking does not support IB interconnection. The E9000 servers support multi-plane networking as well as FCoE networking. Vendor H eSight implements unified management of servers.
No. 1 engineering capability in the industry. Power supply and heat dissipation capability of a full-width slot:
● E9000: 1400 W/40°C
● UCS: 1200 W/35°C
This feature improves system reliability and availability and reduces the PUE of data centers. Competitors' defense: The temperature of 77% data centers is set to 18°C to 21°C. It is seldom for servers to operate at 40°C. In addition, the servers operating at 40°C consume more power.

● According to statistics, 7% power consumption is generated to reduce the temperature by 1°C. Nowadays, the cooling devices account for more than 40% of the devices in data centers. Overcooling causes waste of energy. If the data center temperature increases by 5°C in the world, the total carbon dioxide emission will be reduced by 1.7 million tons and electricity of 24.3 billion degrees will be saved. The E9000 servers use intelligent power management fan modules and orthogonal air duct design, which consumes 5% less power at the same CPU load.
● A fire was caught due to poor heat dissipation of UCS servers.

Key advantage of Cisco UCS5108

Claimed Advantage Customer Benefits Competitor' defense and Huawei's HTB Strategy
Unified computing Provides stateless computing Configuration drift among blade and rack servers Plug-and-play servers reduce deployment time. ● The E9000 servers support stateless computing and allow plug-and-play of blades in initial deployment, system migration, and parts replacement.

● The UCS5108 servers offer poor resource expansion. The E9000 servers can be configured with CH222 storage nodes and CH220/221 I/O expansion nodes, which offer more advantages in big data and VDI applications.
Unified network Use UCS 6200 FI series FCoE switches to unify LAN /SAN and management planes. Use FEX 2200 series I/O cards to replace switch modules Unified network simplifies networking and costs. One set of FI switch performs switching and management of a maximum of 160 blade and rack servers. The subsequent expansion cost is low. ● The networking mode restricts the UCS5108 servers in convergence and virtualization applications.
● The UCS5108 servers do not support IB interconnection, and the chassis does not support evolution to 100GE.
● The UCS servers use private network protocols.
● The E9000 servers offer lower expansion costs than the UCS5108 servers. E9000 servers, CX310 switches, and external FCoE switches with an uplink convergence ratio (blades to external switches) of 1:4 to a unified LAN+SAN network.
Unified management The FI built-in UCS Manager implements unified management of servers, LAN, and SAN. The cost-efficient FEX cards implement management and I/O connection of subracks and FI switches. One set of FI can manage up to 160 blade and rack servers. Unified management reduces O&M costs. Huawei eSight implements unified management of servers, LAN, and SAN device
