Datacenters Are Evolving Utility cost model Partial control Self-service Fully elastic Unknown security Cloud Enterprise Datacenter Fixed cost Full control IT dependent Fixed capacity Known security Cloud Agility and Scale 1.Transforming Infrastructure into a shared service 2.Cloud-scale performance – unmatched entity scaling 3.Accelerating Web 2.0 and video in the cloud 4.Supporting easy migration and management of app infrastructure 5.Bringing enterprise SLAs to the cloud

Growing Web Application Complexity  User volume increasing  More dynamic content Video, voice, Flash, XML Interactive media, embedded applets  More application-specific policies Acceleration, Compression, Caching, Security  Rise in web app security threats Web apps connect directly to most sensitive data 300% increase in web application attacks in past year (FBI) Requires wire-speed inspection for application-layer attacks  More secure transactions requiring encryption Requires massive app-layer transactions/sec (HTTP/SSL)

The Impact of Next Generation Web Apps Rich Web Apps Load Web App Once RIA Agent & Server exchange data In the background AJAX FLEX Silverlight 1 2 Frameworks: XMLtextJSON SOAPREST DOM, JavaScript, CSS Atom/RSS HTTP Browser RIA agent  More apps  More users  More connections  More verbose content  More protocols  More formats  More unknowns

Trends in Next-Gen Data Centers  More Dynamic Modularity: rapid adoption to new Complex Web apps (SOA, Web 2.0, rich media-10X in processing) Extensibility: provide a wide variety of app delivery services for any application need Flexibility: deliver all types of applications with common infrastructure  Virtualization Decouple application services from physical infrastructure elements Dynamically shift back-end resources with no application disruption or change “On the fly” provisioning and allocation of servers  Enterprise operations utilize most features Concurrent use of App F/W, compression, SSL VPN, XML Security, caching, content switching, GSLB  Shift to 10 Gigabit infrastructure build-outs Less network segmentation “Wire-speed” throughput  Green computing: cutting power/cooling demands; smaller form factors  Flexible “pay as you grow” appliance options Excess capacity for future feature support
