Data Loss• 28% have experienced data loss in the past 12 months at a cost of $807,571 per incident• And of those, 39% have experienced 5 or more incidents in the past 12 months• Most Common causes: HW failure, Loss of Power, Loss of Backup Power
Unplanned Outage• 40% have had an unplanned outage in the past 12 months at a cost of $432,000 per incident• On average, 57 hours of unplanned downtime over the past 12 months• Most Common Causes: HW failure, SW failure, data corruption
Summary• 82% say their infrastructure is not fully prepared for a DR incident• Only 27% believe they are fully prepared to ensure continuous availability of
electronic protected health information (ePHI) during outages• Only 50% are confident 100% of data can be restored per SLA• 56% would need 8 hours + to restore 100% of data

3 Pool all storage capacity and provide centralized management
Software will do a few things…
1 Enable different storage devices to communicate with one another
Why Software-defined Storage?
Make hardware maintenance, data migrations, and hardware refreshes easy4
Separate advances in software from advances in hardware2

• Independent, not-for-profit community hospital in Hanover, PA– South Pennsylvania, 50 miles north of Baltimore
• Size: 1,500 staff & 100 beds across 14 buildings
• Serve: 6K patient visits, 30K ER visits, 190K outpatient visits, 600K lab tests, 90K imaging scans & 600+ births per year

Introduction to Hanover Hospital

Infrastructure• Data Centers: 2 connected
by dark fiber• Servers: 34 HP DL380s
– 90% vSphere, 10% Windows & Linux
• Virtual Machines: 266 • Storage: HP MSA , EMC
Clariion
Applications• Clinical
– MEDITECH EMR, Fuji PACS, middleware, etc
• Enterprise– Medisolv (BI reporting),
Citrix XenApp, Microsoft SQL & MySQL
IT Overview
1. Add capacity (quickly & cost effectively)– Several new departmental applications required to be up and
running in short amount of time– New applications required significant storage footprint not available
in incumbent system
2. Quickly scale VMs and applications3. Utilization of 2nd on-campus Datacenter
– Incumbent storage vendor (EMC) using active/passive model, which introduced downtime and required manual intervention
14
Data Storage Challenges
• SAN expansion from incumbent storage vendor (EMC)• But:
– Expensive to acquire• Knew pricing as already have SAN from EMC and had expanded previously• Operational costs could be lower due to previous experience & familiarity
– Unclear if performance could scale• As more apps added, could IOPS support the load?
– Only active/passive failover• RecoverPoint appliance replication and then SRM to bring up second site• Required same storage (model, software) on both ends

Total Price • Quickly scale performance for VMs and applications– Use RAM for I/O acceleration– Flash wasn’t needed
• Active / active, zero touch failover and failback– Storage could be different on
both ends
16
DataCorewas 90% less
• Availability– No downtime for last 4 years
• Despite storage device failures and maintenance
• Performance– 1K IOPS from SATA drives with DataCore
• Theoretical max with RAID 5 is 600 IOPS
• Capacity– 60% overprovisioned
• Delayed new capacity by 1 year, pushing purchase into next budgeting cycle

• Virtualizing PBX– Moving to IP based telephony– 12 new Telephony Application servers required, virtualized to 12 VMs
• Requirements– Reliable performance as voice communication is a tier 1 application– Physical Storage and Compute footprint spanning both hospital Datacenters
• Solution– New ESX cluster utilizing Datacore SANsymphony-V virtualized storage controllers
serving internal HP Storage– Performance and Availability SLAs were met

Bonus Challenge: Reliable Performance

VMware Virtual SAN• Requires 3 hosts to provide HA
for 12 VMs (wasted capacity)
• Only works at single site (needed 6 hosts across 2 sites)
• Requires Flash on servers for I/O acceleration
DataCore Virtual SAN• Only requires 2 hosts (no waste)
• Active/active failover (only 2 hosts in total across 2 sites)
• Uses RAM for I/O acceleration (Flash is optional)
