-- Exhibit -
We have been engaged by a research hospital to help upgrade their Isilon installation. They currently have 12 previous generation Isilon nodes with 200TB of capacity and run on a 1Gbps network. They currently have 6 Illumina Hi-Seq Sequencers and an HPC cluster to process data. They would like to expand Isilon to 2PB of active data and 1PB of archive data. They use a third party data and metadata management service (IRODs) to stage data for analysis. The Isilon cluster is mainly used for analysis work with the HPC cluster.
-- Exhibit -
Currently, the workflows are being limited by the network access to the Isilon cluster.
What would result in the fastest possible network throughput?

QUESTION NO: 2
Your customer is moving from a Restaurant/Bar business model to a Restaurant/Casino business model. You are helping architect the upgrade of a current 4-node X200 48 TB Isilon cluster, with 50% utilized for their video surveillance operations.
They want to upgrade from 15 FPS (NTSC) in H.264 codec, with a 15 days retention policy to 30 FPS (NTSC) in H.264 codec with a 30 days retention policy.
Which storage capacity would be the best suited to meet the required changes and utilize 65-75% capacity?

They want to upgrade from 15 FPS (NTSC) in H.264 codec, with a 15 days retention policy to 30 FPS (NTSC) in H.264 codec, with a 30 days retention policy.
How many nodes of the same type will you need to add in order to meet the required changes and not exceed 70% raw capacity?

QUESTION NO: 5
Your customer has a new business unit. They are gathering web log files to be analyzed. They are using Hadoop to do the analysis of the logs. The IT department is centrally storing the log files on a 5-node Isilon cluster. They have enabled the Hadoop cluster to access the files directly on the Isilon storage. The nodes are X400's with two SSD drives in each node and 96GB of RAM.How many DataNodes does the Isilon cluster have?

QUESTION NO: 6
You are designing a new Isilon system to store mobile device video clips. The files average 800MB in size and the application team tells you to plan for up to 15,000 new files per day. The product manager for this new service wants enough capacity for the first year and reminds you that response time for storing and retrieving the files is important for customer satisfaction.
The files will be accessed frequently for the first 48 hours after creation, and then very infrequently after seven days. You plan to use N+2:1 protection, and will configure a SmartPools policy to move inactive files to an archive tier within the cluster.
Which configuration best fits the project requirements?

QUESTION NO: 7
A cost-conscious customer is exploring Isilon for their PACS archive. The workflow consists of one hundred cases a day, each including fifty 60MB image files. However, each image will have five-hundred 64kB metadata files associated with it. They currently have six years worth of archived data. They will need to migrate to the new solution and they need to plan for an additional three years of archive capacity.
Which solution would you recommend to fit their capacity needs?
