4 WHO IS OVH? 2017 Proprietary and Confidential 4

OVH GROUP HIGHLIGHTS OVH is a global, hyper-scale cloud provider that offers our customers maximum performance and value Vertical integration (constructing own servers, data centers) and proprietary

5 OVH GROUP HIGHLIGHTS OVH is a global, hyper-scale cloud provider that offers our customers maximum performance and value Vertical integration (constructing own servers, data centers) and proprietary green water cooling technology allows OVH to save costs and pass savings to customers Named largest hosting & cloud provider in Europe and third largest global hosting provider by Netcraft 5

6 OVH IS A GLOBAL CLOUD LEADER Hosting capacity: 1.3 million physical servers 270,000 already deployed data centers in 5 countries and 4 continents data centers in 11 countries Own 11+ Tbps Network with 32 PoPs data centers Over 1.2 Million Business Clients in 138 Countries 6

7 OVH FOUNDED BY A FAMILY OF ENGINEERS Founded in 1999 by Octave Klaba & his family Left to right: Haline Klaba, Henry Klaba, Octave Klaba (Founder, CEO), Miroslaw Klaba (Founder, SVP Data Centers & Hardware) 7

8 THE OVH HISTORY Octave Klaba borrows francs ($4500 USD) and launches OVH in Paris with ten servers OVH opens its first data center (P19) in Paris The Greenbox is launched -- the first server designed and built by OVH OVH begins use of water-cooling to cool its servers OVH hosts more than 4,000 servers and opens two subsidiaries in Poland and Spain Birth of Roubaix Valley, OVH HQ complex, in northern France -- more than two hectares OVH connects Paris and Roubaix with fiber and commands 33 PoPs, 3 Gbps bandwidth Launch of five new subsidiaries and a new data center, Roubaix OVH focuses on cloud and launches Dedicated Cloud w/vmware tech OVH is recognized as a leading provider in Europe OVH heads to North America with a project to build its largest data center in Canada (BHS) The launch of Gravelines, the largest data center in Europe with a capacity of 500,000 servers OVH enters the world stage with 17 data centers and a global network (7.3 Tbps bandwidth) Network capacity is regularly increased, topping 11 Tbps OVH expands with the acquisition of vcloud Air and new data centers worldwide 8

9 The VMware Cloud, Layer by Layer 2017 Proprietary and Confidential 9

10 Let s start at Layer Proprietary and Confidential 1 0

11 It s the Layer under Layer 1 ;-) 11

12 LAYER 0 All the systems and components that create & enable physical and virtual networks - Buildings & containers - Power & Cooling - Physical Servers - Network Cabling 12

13 OVH OVER-PERFORMS ON POWER USAGE EFFECTIVENESS Legacy 1.8 Average 1.5 Best in class Power Usage Effectiveness = Total Facility Energy IT Equipment Energy 13

14 LAYER 0 OPTIMIZATIONS Layer 4-7 Layer 3 Layer 2 Layer 1 Layer 0 -Own the physical compute layer - Cloud optimized servers manufactured in-house - Supply chain optimizations -Own the network - Globally inter-connected network (Backbone) - 32 Points of Presence & 27 DCs by end of Minimize electrical costs - Servers cooled using water (conduction) vs. air (convection) - Data center building benefits maximized -Minimize overall costs - Don t build net new data centers unless required - Supply chain optimizations -Bare metal cloud advanced capabilities - Deploy ~120s globally 14

15 LAYER 1 OPTIMIZATIONS Layer 4-7 Layer 3 Layer 2 Layer 1 -Plan fiber for the future - Lay down leading class fiber where available - Sign loooooong leases (25yrs+) otherwise - Keep most of it dark, and crank up the light over time - Make it global - 32 Network Access Points (NAP) / Points of Presence (PoPs) Layer 0

16 THE OVH GLOBAL NETWORK vcloud Air Data Centers 16

17 LAYER 2 OPTIMIZATIONS Layer 4-7 Layer 3 Layer 2 Layer 1 Layer 0 -Global Layer 2 adjacency (vrack) - Between similar services globally - Between other OHV cloud types globally VLANs per customer - > 64,000,000,000 interconnectable global customer networks -HCX Layer 2 Extension from On-Premise to Cloud - High throughput optimized - High number of VLANs optimized - vrack -Layer 2 Distributed Firewall / Micro-segmentation (VMware NSX)

18 vrack Private VLAN vrack enables private connectivity between data centers Allows extending Layer 2 networks Interconnects different environment types on the same VLAN: Ex: Dedicated server, Hosted Private Cloud, Public Cloud Instances 18

19 LAYER 3 OPTIMIZATIONS Layer 4-7 Layer 3 Layer 2 Layer 1 -vrack -Distributed logical routing (NSX) -Anti-DDoS - Block IP or subnets based on advanced analysis Layer 0

20 OVH Anti-DDoS Analysis: Detect the attack Vacuum: Reroute traffic Mitigate: Filter illegitimate traffic Side note: OVH Defeats largest DDoS attack on record 20

21 LAYER 4-7 OPTIMIZATIONS Layer 4-7 Layer 3 Layer 2 Layer 1 -WAN Optimization (HCjX) - DR replication traffic - No-downtime migration (vmotion-esque) - Low-downtime migration - Global network capacity and performance visibility - Global services status visibility - Finely-tuned, automated deployment Layer 0
