We have achieved predictable database (and other critical applications) performance by provisioning on
NPAR based guaranteed I/O partitions. This ensured predictable performance (and thereby Service Levels)
without the need for overprovisioning. Our lab test found significant performance degradation when using a
Network adapter without NPAR based partitioning. I encourage you to read thecomplete whitepaper for
details.

Hopefully, I have convinced you of the need for better I/O control in your IT shop. It goes a long way in achieving
desired service levels, while keeping TCO low. You get the ability to control I/O partitions (NPAR) for free with
QLogic Network Adapters. Although our IT implementation was on VMware, you can implement on any
Hypervisor, even bare metal. Drop me a comment if you have questions.
