SoftLayer is more than virtualized cloud infrastructure Cloud Capability Shared multi-tenant virtual infrastructure Table stakes for workloads that are rapidly provisioned and released Non-shared single-tenant virtual infrastructure For workloads requiring predictable performance or more stringent security Bare metal (non-virtual) infrastructure For workloads requiring highest performance, security, manageability etc.. Mix virtual and Bare metal infrastructure For flexibility in deployment Virtual Private Cloud Logically isolated section of cloud in a virtual network you define Build your own Hosted Private Cloud Ultimate control configuring and managing bare metal infrastructure Unlimited datacenter-to-datacenter networking Global private network for unlimited replication, backup, failover etc.. Transparency from topology to hardware Bare metal can provide maximum control, security, and compliance IBM SoftLayer 4

IBM SoftLayer Cloud SoftLayer stands apart Cloud providers and many in the market make some core assumptions that mandate that resources are virtualized. resources are shared. With SoftLayer, neither is mandated, opening up cloud computing to new applications and use cases virtualization is a choice with a flexible set of options. resources can be shared, dedicated, or mixed. The client has the ultimate choice! 9
IBM SoftLayer Cloud Virtualization is a choice! SoftLayer debunks the myth that resources must be virtualized and shared. With SoftLayer, virtualization is a choice and resources can be shared, dedicated, or mixed.

Enterprise Hybrid Cloud Barriers to Adoption Inconsistent Platforms Established on premise policies, procedures, machine images, application & network configuration settings often need to adapt to the public cloud provider s platform Steep Learning Curve Public Cloud platforms require the use of unfamiliar Tools, API s and platform and data center architecture Loss of Control Established procedures and control mechanisms to meet Compliance and Governance requirements often require full control over the platform 14
Deeper, global strategic partnership to accelerate enterprise hybrid cloud adoption by enabling customers to easily and securely extend their existing workloads as they are, from on premises data centers to the Cloud. Only IBM Cloud provides Full access to the native VMware stack to manage workloads in the Cloud EXACTLY as you would on premises. VMware clients scale globally with IBM s 46+ Cloud Data Centers and POPs. No modification of: Security Storage Networking Tools NO VM conversion copy & paste No new skills 15

Capabilities of a private cloud A private cloud is a single-tenant cloud consisting of host servers running virtual instances, all deployed in a self-service model with an unmanaged hypervisor. SoftLayer Cloud Physical Server Single-Tenant with (self-managed) Hypervisor Single-tenant Bare Metal Server (physical) Private Highly customizable Hypervisor agnostic* Virtual machines Hypervisor Standard Dedicated Host Server Private Cloud Specialty Dedicated Ex: mass storage * Any desired hypervisor 28
IP addresses in SoftLayer Each SoftLayer server (virtual or bare metal) comes with one primary IPv4 address. Additional IP blocks are available in quantities of one, two, four, eight, 16, or 32. KB on SoftLayer IP Blocks Primary IP Block Static IP Blocks Portable IP Block Global IP Reserved IPs for future server orders Every interface is assigned a Primary IP routed directly to a specific IP available to just one server all IPs in the block can be used Use case is for SSL sites routed to a single VLAN default deployed as Secondary on VLAN optional deployed as Routed to VLAN Static IP address that can be transferred between servers to any datacenter Use case is for DR used for Virtual Environments lose three IPs to Gateway, Network and Broadcast used for HA scenarios all IPs usable 29

Major Benefits: Easy to Obtain: IBM s customers can purchase the VMware software they need to power their deployments on IBM s bare metal hardware infrastructure service in a flexible, cost efficient way. Customers can deploy new, or scale existing VMware technologies based workloads in the IBM Cloud all while taking advantage of existing skill sets, tools and technologies our customers are already familiar with. Licensing with Bare Metal Server fee: Unique and attractive CPU (not RAM) based pay as you go VMware licensing VMware SW Integrated in SoftLayer: All the VMware software catalog is present a la carte in SoftLayer portal. Easy to operate: Existing VMware s customers will find it easy to operate a seamless and consistent cloud that spans hybrid environments. It also means that VMware customers can preserve their investment in existing workloads and solutions while taking advantage of IBM s Cloud global footprint and scale. BYOL (Bring Your Own Licenses): Existing Vmware customers can take advantage of theirs already existing licenses and apply them to a brand new Bare Metal Server*. Integration & Solution Design: VMware will continue to work with other cloud service providers but not with this level of integration, sales or marketing support including joint solutions design. 32
