The Trend Is Clear % of customers running apps in production on VMware 56% 53% 50% 36% 41% 34% 24% 27% MS Exchange MS SQL MS SharePoint Oracle Middleware Oracle Source: VMware customer survey, September 2008, sample size 1038 Data: Within subset of VMware customers running a specific app, % that have at least one instance of that app in production in a VM DB IBM WebSphere IBM DB2 SAP In a recent Gartner poll, 73% of customers claimed to use x86 virtualization for mission critical applications in production Source: Gartner IOM Conference (June 2008) Linux and Windows Server Virtualization Is Picking Up Steam (ID Number: G00161702) 23
Yes You Can! Debunking Common Objections for Tier 1 Apps Performance Virtual Machines run the most demanding apps 8 vcpus and 255 GB of memory Small overhead (typically 2% to 10%) Scale apps better on large multicore servers Double server capacity for Exchange 2007 ISV Support / Licensing Majority of large ISVs support VMware Microsoft, SAP and IBM provide full support Oracle in grey zone has support statement Licensing costs often reduced with virtualization Per vcpu licensing: pay only for what you use Physical processor licensing: consolidate multiple licenses on shared cluster 24
Apps Run Better on the Private Cloud Consolidation Cut Infrastructure and Software License Costs Achieve 5X - 10X server consolidation for large apps Increase utilization of software licenses App Lifecycle Accelerate App Lifecycle from Dev to Production Reduce provisioning times from weeks to minutes Self-service provisioning Quality of Service Guarantee Application Quality of Service Policy-driven Service Level assurance Provide cost-effective HA and simple Disaster Recovery 25
Automated DR for all apps with vcenter Site Recovery Management Site Recovery Manager leverages vsphere to deliver advanced disaster recovery management Simple and automation and efficient Disaster Recovery Disaster Recovery for ALL applications vcenter Site Recovery Manager Simplifies and automates disaster recovery workflows: setup, test, failover Turns manual disaster recovery runbooks into automated plans Centralized management of recovery plans from the vsphere client 26

vstorage API Overview vstorage API currently includes: 1. vstorage API for Site Recovery Manager 2. vstorage API for Data Protection 3. vstorage API for Multipathing New VMware technologies will include: 4. vstorage API for Array Integration (VAAI) Offloads tasks to storage array Improves performance of ESX host Demonstrates tight integration with vsphere 43
3 API components being implemented 1. Hardware-Accelerated Locking = 10-100x better metadata scaling Replace LUN level locking with block level locking for better performance Reduce number of lock operations required by using one efficient SCSI command to perform pre-lock, lock, and post-lock operations Significantly increases locking efficiency and I/O performance 2. Hardware-Accelerated Zero = 2-10x lower number of IO operations Eliminate redundant and repetitive host-based write commands with optimized internal array commands 3. Hardware-Accelerated Copy = 2-10x better data movement Leverage native array Copy capability to move blocks 44
Hardware-Accelerated Locking Without API Reserves the complete LUN so that it could obtain a lock Required several SCSI commands LUN level locks affect adjacent hosts With API Locks occur at a block level One efficient SCSI command - SCSI Compare and Swap (CAS) Block level locks have no effect on adjacent hosts. Use Cases Bigger clusters with more VMs View, Lab Manager, Project Redwood More & Faster VM Snapshotting 45
Hardware-Accelerated Zero Without API SCSI Write - Many identical small blocks of zeroes moved from host to array for MANY VMware IO operations Extra zeros can be removed after the fact by zero reclaim (EMC and others) New Guest IO to VMDK is pre-zeroed With API SCSI Write Same - One giant block of zeroes moved from host to array and repeatedly written en masse Extra zeros can be not written at all when array is thin provisioned (pre zero reclaim ) VMDK Use Cases Time to create VMs, particularly FT-enabled VMs. Reduced extra IO when writing to new blocks in the VMDK for any VM 46
Hardware-Accelerated Copy Without API SCSI Read (Data moved from array to host) SCSI Write (Data moved from host to array) Repeat Huge periods of large VMFS level IO, done via millions of small block operations With API SCSI Extended Copy (Data moved within array) Repeat Order of magnitude reduction in IO operations Order of magnitude reduction in array IOps Use Cases Storage vmotion VM Creation from Template 47
Let s review Vision: EMC s journey to the private cloud will transform IT EMC Advantage: EMC storage is simple, efficient and, ultimately, invisible VMware Integration: EMC integration with VMware is the BEST in the industry 48
