Traditional Computing Environments Silos of hardware, storage, software & applications Oracle Corporation © Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Departmental Application Inflexible Application Silos The current status quo… Fueled by promise of “low cost” commodity hardware Extended by OS and virtualization advancements … is not sustainable for the future Sized for individual peak loads Expensive to manage No vendor accountability Can’t meet changing business needs

Optimizing the Entire Infrastructure Stack Reducing server sprawl, increasing quality of service Faster, more efficient hardware and software Improved RAS features, increased security Employ more mature deployment models Vertical Integration Virtualize & Consolidate New Technologies Oracle Corporation © Hardware and Software Engineered to Work Together

Modernize, Consolidate and Virtualize Server Refresh and Virtualization for maximum benefits Oracle Corporation © Virtualize & Consolidate Server Refresh Benefits Replaces older servers with faster, more efficient technology Meet new application needs Virtualization Benefits Reduces total server footprint Provides quick datacenter optimization payoff

Server Virtualization Benefits Reduce costs, improve service levels Improved server utilization and efficiency – Lower acquisition, licensing, service, power, space, cooling costs Improved capacity and response time – Newer and faster processors, interconnects, and I/O Increased flexibility – Faster time to deployment of new applications Oracle Corporation © Average Utilization=19.8% Avg=34.2% Avg=16.6% Average Utilization=70.6 % Assumes comparable performance across all servers

Greater Benefits: Virtualizing Older Systems 18:1 Consolidation to Sun Fire X4470 M2 affords redundancy Source: Intel’s '“Performance + Reliability + Security = Intel Xeon Processor Formula for Mission-Critical Computing “; base on Intel measurements as of March 2011 of Xeon E and dual 4-socket systems.

The only fully certified VM for Oracle software products – Faster deployments, faster problem resolution, less expensive downtime Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder for rapid, error-free deployment Full testing and integration across Oracle software stack, leading to better performance Integrated management reduces costs High availability and scalability included “The move to Oracle VM significantly improved performance of our Oracle eBusiness Suite environment while reducing our IT support costs by tens of thousands of dollars annually valuable savings for a company in today’s building materials market.” – Jim Thomas, Pella Corporation Oracle VM Server for x86 Enables delivering of complete solution infrastructure Oracle Corporation ©

Oracle Solaris Containers Built-in virtualization on any Oracle Solaris system Simple, lowest overhead, highest performance – Ideally suited to leverage multithreading hardware Same virtualization for all SPARC and x86 systems reduces training, management costs Mission-critical deployments – Largest financial, telco customers run Oracle Solaris Containers Ideal for a variety of scenarios – Dynamic production environments with resource sharing – Container cloning/migration/instant restart – Rapid prototyping, Lightweight test environments “We estimate that Solaris Containers have been able to give us the equivalent memory and processing power of ten virtual servers on every physical server. That’s resulted in an 80% reduction in space requirements and 65% savings in energy costs.” – Brad Forrester, Siteworx, Inc Oracle Corporation ©
