Reduced latency for more performance

The x3800 provides more computing

power in a tower-based design than

many competitive models, giving

organizations powerful commercial

application-hosting capabilities without

sacriﬁcing expansion. It delivers up to

16 times the memory addressing and

three times the CPU bus bandwidth of

previous server designs.

Using the IBM XA-64e™

third-generation chipset, this X3

Architecture system beneﬁts from

reduced processor front-side bus traffic

via an industry-exclusive integrated

snoop ﬁlter for more intelligent caching.

The XA-64e speeds communications

between the processors, main memory

and I/O, helping the x3800 power com-

mercial IT applications, particularly

those suited for hotel, retail and insur-

ance industries.

Optimized for midsize businesses

Delivering availability without compro-

mising performance, the x3800 is an

ideal solution for remotely managed

locations.

Combining high-availability technologies

that have become the hallmark of

Enterprise X-Architecture servers with

newly integrated security features, the

system helps enable exceptional uptime

and protection of your business-critical

data. Advancements include:

●

IBM Predictive Failure Analysis®

helping to monitor critical compo-

nents and triggering alerts before

problems arise.

●

IBM Chipkill™ memory, allowing

correction of multiple, single-bit

errors using off-the-shelf DIMMs

●

IBM Memory ProteXion™, keeping

the server running by rerouting

data in the event of an on-DIMM

chip failure to enhance the effective-

ness of Chipkill technology

●

Memory Mirroring, protecting data

by writing simultaneously to inde-

pendent redundant memory cards

●

Hot-swap and hot-add memory as

supported by Microsoft Windows®

Server 2003

Breakthrough all-in-one design

The x3800 establishes a new standard

for industry-leading x64 performance in

a tower-based design system. A main-

frame-inspired cache directory,

XceL4v™, is integrated in the

processor/memory controller which

improves overall performance by mini-

mizing bus congestion and reduces

latency compared to competing

x64 designs.

On demand ready

IBM System x servers are guided by

the IBM Systems agenda that out-

lines an IT environment based on

simpliﬁcation and optimization. The

IBM Systems agenda is based on

these fundamental principles:

●

Virtualization-By automating,

optimizing and simplifying com-

plex infrastructures, businesses

can build more resilient, man-

ageable and cost-effective

systems.

●

Openness-By supporting and

advancing open standards, enter-

prises can protect their IT invest-

ments both now and in the

future.

●

Collaboration for innovation-By

enabling information on demand,

companies can more easily col-

laborate with business partners,

independent solution vendors

and clients, helping them drive

industry collaboration and pro-

vide better service.

The overall result: a more secure and

resilient IT environment.
