QLogic FabricCache 10000 Host Bus Adapter
QLogic’s QLE10000 is a Host Bus Adapter (HBA) with a server-
side cache that seamlessly integrates with your SAN fabric. By
maintaining a server-side cache, frequently-accessed data is brought
closer to the server application. The QLE10000 supports virtually all
clustered and/or virtualized applications transparently, including
Oracle Real Application Clusters.
The QLE10000 is operating system independent, and functions like a
standard QLogic HBA.
Oracle RAC and QLE10000
– Extending Database Performance
By providing applications with the ability to spread their database
activity across multiple servers, RAC provides applications with data
access that is efficient, scalable, and fault tolerant. QLogic’s
QLE10000 caching Host Bus Adaptor provides RAC with I/O access
that is faster than always directly accessing the storage system across
a SAN fabric. This means that RAC workload on each node (server)
can scale further because disk I/O is less likely to become a
bottleneck for RAC.
