A customer has two Isilon clusters in an Active-Passive setup. The customer has latency sensitive media editing workflows. Most of the media editing work occurs prior to broadcasting between 7:00-8:00, 11:00- 12:00, 17:00-18:00 and 19:00-20:00.
What should be recommended to minimize the risk of including latency to the client workflow?

We have been engaged by a research hospital to help upgrade their Isilon installation. They currently have 12 previous generation Isilon nodes with 200 TB of capacity and run on a 1 Gbps network.
They currently have 6 Illumina Hi-Seq Sequencers and an HPC cluster to process dat
a. They would like to expand Isilon to 2 PB of active data and 1 PB 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.
The customer will add two more Illumina Hi-Seq Sequencers in the next 6 months. Once these are added, what is the total amount of data from all the sequencers they can expect to add per month?

A customer is inquiring about expanding their primary cluster consisting of six S-Series nodes in order to improve performance. They have a second cluster with 11 X-Series nodes. Both clusters leverage 1GbE, but the customer recently installed a 10GbE network that can be utilized.
They also have multiple Fibre Channel SAN arrays in their environment. They have a variety of workloads on each cluster and are in the process of determining which workloads belong on which cluster.
They have discovered that one of the workloads- a SQL database that resides on the X-Series node cluster - is experiencing timeouts due to latency. The database vendor has suggested limiting latency to 5ms or less to eliminate these timeouts.
How do you advise the customer?
