3. AGENDA • A New Era Requires Change in the Data Center • Virtualization Technology Takes Hold • Steps Towards Automating the Data Center Data Center Fabric Coordinated Virtual Infrastructure • The Application Fluent Programmable Network • Conclusion

5. UNPRECEDENTED CHANGE IN APPLICATION DELIVERY PUBLIC CLOUD PRIVATE CLOUD Applications VIRTUALIZATION Servers Network Corporate Data Center Site 1 Corporate Data Center Site 2 Data Center New Devices New Technology New Applications

6. FOR TOO LONG, NETWORKS WERE ABOUT THE BIGGEST AND FASTEST

7. VITUALIZATION CAUSES DISRUPTION INFRASTRUCTURE USERS SERVICE DATA APPLICATION VIRTUALIZATION MOBILITY CONSUMERIZATION DATA CENTER APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE ANYWHERE ON ANY DEVICE

8. NOW IT IS ALL ABOUT AUTOMATION NETWORK • Computing is now completely flexible but the data center network is not • The network and the applications are operating effectively in silos • The network today has little awareness of applications • Virtual application control systems are unaware of the network • Any attempt to improve resource utilization likely delivers a suboptimal result GLOBAL CONTROL Applications DISTRIBUTED CONTROL VIRTUAL WORKLOADS MEANS NEW REQUIREMENTS TO ENABLE AUTOMATION

9. NETWORK INVESTMENT HAS ENTERED THE CIO COUNCIL’S TOP 5 PRIORITIES — FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. ADVANCED NETWORKING NOW TOP OF MIND Source: Forrester’s annual CIO Council priorities survey, Q1 2011

10. DATA CENTER NETWORK TRANSFORMATION • COMPUTING as a SERVICE • Elastic, on-demand computing • Application Plug and Play • End-to-end performance • NETWORK • VIRTUALIZATION • Business workload agility • SDN for optimized service • Open DC eco-system • SERVER • VIRTUALIZATION • 10G servers • Low latency • Profile for VM Motion • CLIENT-SERVER • 1 App - 1 server
