Chart shows percentage of survey responses to a question about primary brand of network storage attached to virtual servers. N=311 “ For virtual servers, networked storage solutions are more heavily weighted toward EMC storage . In previous years, storage attached to virtual servers was highly captive relative to the server hardware purchase.” Source: IDC’s Server Virtualization 2007 Multiclient Study, Dec 2007 * EMC and VMware were sponsors of this study

Information Protection – Disaster Recovery Virtual Infrastructure Requires Flexibility in Data Replication Solutions VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM) Simplifies planning and execution of BC/DR processes Integrates with and inherits characteristics of storage replication solutions DR infrastructure needs to support both virtual and traditional deployment Enable transition from physical to virtual EMC Delivers Best-in-breed data replication solutions Array-based All WAN topologies (IP, Layer 2, DWDM) Fabric-based Compression and heterogeneous configurations Host-based Critical in many physical to virtual scenarios Application integrated Upgrade to app-consistent replication for all Tier 1 apps (Exchange, SQL Server, Oracle, SAP) PRODUCTION RECOVERY APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS APP OS
- 8. Information Protection – Backup Built for VMware Impact to existing process Virtualization reduces or spare CPU/IO resources Virtualization consolidates backup workloads Virtualized systems have a significant amount of redundant data 90% of data in VM’s is duplicate (C:\) Need more efficient method of backing-up in a virtualized environment Integrated data-de-duplication and backup-to-disk solution Tremendous backup process improvements 90% reduction in VMDK backup storage requirements 10x improvement in backup times De-dupe at source enables higher consolidation Available as a Virtual Appliance EMC delivers Virtualization enables new backup choices Traditional Full and incremental backup: move 150–200% of data/week Hardware Disk NIC Memory CPU VMware ESX Server Built for VMware Efficient VMware backup: move 2–7% of data/week Hardware VMware ESX Server Disk NIC Memory CPU
- 9. Managing the VMware-Enabled Data Center Need to Manage Physical and Virtual Environments End-to-End Traditional view of resources change Virtual servers, networks One application per server becomes many to one Flexibility of virtualization enables relationships to change frequently VMotion, DRS, Storage VMotion EMC Delivers Management Tools Built for VMware Simple views of virtual-physical relationships for IO (network and storage) Dependency-driven configuration and problem management Simplified planning and management of virtual infrastructure 100% integrated with VMware APIs
- 10. VMware and Tier 1 Applications Accelerate Deployments While Reducing Risk Need confidence that components from multiple vendors work together Understand the nuances of deploying mission-critical applications with VMware EMC Delivers Joint HCL/eLab interoperability testing Ensure the virtual and physical work together Weekly calls with the VMware HCL team Joint VMware EMC Reference Architectures for Tier 1 Applications Oracle 11 g /10 g SQL Server 2005 Exchange 2007 SAP All at enterprise scale More than 450 ESX 3.5 Servers at Joint VMware/EMC Solution Center
