7 Industry Trends The State of the Data Centre

8 Data Centre Expenses The Virtualization Expense Spending (US$B) $300 $250 $200 $150 $100 $50 $0 Power and cooling costs Server mgmt. and admin. costs New server spending *Source: IDC, CIO Strategies to Build the Next Gen Data Center, DOC#DR2007_5VT, Feb Management Equation $1 Capital = $7 Management AVOCENT CORPORATION Millions Logical server installed base: Physical server installed base: Management Gap

9 Key Issues and Concerns IT Management Business Continuity Resource Utilization Service levels Managing Operational Expenses Security Concerns Regulatory Compliance IT Staff Need to be in more than one place at one time Balancing daily firefighting with strategic mission Have to learn and develop expertise in a variety of environments and applications Juggle management of physical and virtual servers Asked to do more with less 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

10 Total I.T. Management. Reinvented! Old Multiple vendors solutions & infrastructure Proprietary infrastructure High deployment and maintenance costs Network dependent Fix problems New Single management interface Common infrastructure, cross platform Easy to deploy and maintain High availability Protection/Control Deliver SLAs 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

11 Avocent Solution Strategy Automate Maintain Policy & Process Executive Dashboard Configuration Templates Audit & Reporting Functions Configure Monitor Manage & Protect Asset Management Provisioning Capability Log/Monitor/Alert AV & Patch Management Problem Resolution Tactics Bridge Connect Access & Control In-Band & Out-of-Band Server & Serial Management Power Management Service Processors Management Servers Blades VM s Network Desktops Mobile

12 Challenges in Data Center Maintain & Maximize Service Level

13 I.T. s a Complex World System Administrator Causes of Server Downtime Monitor & Control IT Asset Outage 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

14 IT Infrastructure Definition Physical Forces IT Infrastructure Sprawl Audit and Compliance Requirements Power / Cooling Physical Security Storage Growth Physical IT Infrastructure Physical Device Infrastructure Operational Efficiency Pressure Doing more with Less Physical Compute Infrastructure Logical Forces Applications Sprawl Virtualization Audit and Compliance Requirements Security Threats Workload Growth Storage Capacity and Management Operational Efficiency Pressure Doing more with Less Logical IT Infrastructure Hypervisors Microsoft Virtual Server Operating Systems Application s 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

15 The New IT Paradigm Logical Virtual Environment Physical Environment 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

16 What s Driving Virtualization? More efficient use of server hardware Overcome space, energy, cooling limits Cheap redundancy More flexible response to production and development requirements Don t want to be left out!

17 Virtualization Advantages Use the excess capacity in servers Reduces the number of hardware servers to provide new applications Better utilizes the power and cooling tax you are already paying Reduces complexity and cost to install a new server Tools can enable more cost effective disaster recovery or high availability options

18 Virtualization Disadvantages By itself, will decrease the availability of applications and services Breaks the physical association of applications/ servers from the hardware Reduces complexity and cost to install a new server Adds another layer of infrastructure to manage Software licensing Must be careful in configuration Cannot virtualize every application Not all applications Work and play well with others

19 No one is going 100% virtual! Virtual servers will always co-exist with un-virtualized machines (Physical servers) Implementation is gradual Some apps don t lend themselves to it The more you do it the harder it gets

20 Management challenges 1) Those arising from the nature of virtualization itself 2) Those arising from the fact that virtual servers have to be managed in conjunction with un-virtualized or physical servers

21 Management challenges Virtualization Challenges Administering access rights Maintaining those rights as virtual servers get moved around the data center Providing administrators access to virtual servers Protecting multiple virtual servers from the failure of any single physical component Managing virtual machines across different VirtualCenters

22 Management challenges Managing both Physical and Virtual Servers Accessing both types of servers in a similar manner Administering access to both types of servers Collecting events from both types of servers Auditing access to both types of servers Managing the physical machine that hosts the virtual servers

23 IDC Comment Most IT organizations want an integrated view between virtual and physical environments; visions are often ahead of existing product capabilities. - Stephen Elliot, IDC analyst

24 Avocent solves the problem Access all resources from a single pick-list Administer access in a common manner Insulation from virtual server moves Consolidate alarms Consolidate auditing Out-of-band access Better security

25 Big Benefits Lower cost of virtual server ownership Faster/easier response to change Reduced risk Ability to more widely deploy virtualization

26 Centralizing for success Access Anytime Anywhere

27 Remote Server Management Avocent DSR Appliance Remote Access & Control Support multi-platform servers Managed directly or through DSView 3 software Execute remote file transfers, application, OS patches, or diagnostic testing from a CD/USB device Integrated server and power management Independent control (power on/off/cycle) Launch Virtual media USB Device Cyclades PM Intelligent Power Distribution Management 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

31 Managing heterogeneous environments Physical Logical Connections OS Power Service Processor Mobile Network Storage Telco Embedded 2007 AVOCENT CORPORATION

32 VMWare Infrastructure VMware Infrastructure allows users to create a virtual data center that is centrally managed by management servers and can be controlled through a wide selection of interfaces. A typical VMware Infrastructure data center consists of basic physical building blocks such as x86 computing servers (ESX Servers), storage networks and arrays, IP networks, a management server (VirtualCenter) and desktop clients (VI Client).
