  B. Remote Recovery on both servers
  C. Active Memory Expansion on each server
  D. Memory Deduplication between servers
  C. Active Memory Expansion on each server

• Question 100:

  A customer is comparing a Power Systems solution with an x86 solution for big data analytics.

  The IBM Systems Workload Estimator is a web-based sizing tool for IBM Power Systems, System i, System p, System x, IBM Flex Systems, and IBM PureFlex Systems. You can use this tool to size a new system, to size an upgrade to an existing system, or to size a consolidation of several systems. The Workload Estimator (WLE) allows measurement input to best reflect your current workload and provides a variety of built-in workloads to reflect your emerging application requirements. Virtualization can be used to yield a more robust solution. The Workload Estimator will provide current and growth recommendations for processor, memory, and disk that satisfy the overall client performance requirements
