3 Today s Enterprise Requires a Modern Network Bandwidth needs continue to grow Evolving workloads create east-west traffic jams Organizations are planning for softwaredefined networks Multiple vendors chipsets now exceed proprietary designs Networking functionality is increasing in Linux 3

4 Then: Compute Paradigm Shift Disaggregated server model changed the server landscape Mainframe model Proprietary architectures & mgmt tools X86 servers model Orchestration/automation for distributed computing Digital Sun HP UX IBM Limited apps Proprietary OS (e.g., Solaris, HP-UX, Ultrix) Dell HP Application ecosystem Standard OS hypervisors VMware Windows Server System RedHat Linux Suse Proprietary CPUs (e.g., SPARC, PA-RISC, Alpha) Industry standard (X86 CPU) Intel AMD 4

5 Now: Networking Paradigm Shift Leverage open, innovative and best-of-breed solutions for the data center Traditional networking Proprietary architectures & mgmt tools Hundreds of protocols Proprietary networking OS (e.g., Cisco IOS, Juniper OS) Proprietary ASICs Future of networking Standard orchestration & automation tools Optional 3 rd party SDN/NVO controller Any networking OS Open standard hardware Merchant silicon Proven OS that meets enterprise needs Dell Networking OS Dell Networking switches for data center Merchant Silicon Big Switch, Cumulus, Pluribus or IP Infusion Open hardware with enterprise-class features 5

6 Open Networking the foundation of Dell EMS Vision in the Data Center Dell Software-Defined Networking Operating System Solutions Network Overlay Solutions Control Plane Solutions Switching Software Switching Hardware Virtual Networking Physical Networking Forwarding Plane Control Plane Dell Open Networking Disaggregating the building blocks of networking 6

7 Recognition for our Vision and Execution 2016 Data Center Networking Dell continues to strongly push its open strategy, with noticeable growth in sales that include partner software solutions Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Center Networking, May 2016

8 Why Open Networking? Array of Choices Several options to choose the right OS for your workload Open Architecture A scale-out leaf-spine software-defined architecture instead of 3-tier traditional networks Re-purpose HW & SW HW can be replaced to take advantage of merchant silicon inventions keeping the same SW. SW can be replaced keeping the same HW. Standardize HW Opportunity to standardize on HW not requiring fork-lift upgrade $ Lower TCO Reduced CapEx and OpEx compared to traditional Incumbent infrastructure Investment Protection Open and agile scale-out deployment to address future growth 8
