Compute Network Storage Virtualization – Increased availability, flexibility and utilization. Logical networks – Defined in minutes and bound to workloads. Built for virtualization. Reduce cost and complexity – increase performance and scaling. Management & Orchestration

New Container - VM Virtualized Resource Pool Nothing above or below the hypervisor knows anything changed

Top Virtualization Issues #1 – Application performance (57%) #2 – Capital cost of storage (38%) #3 – Storage complexity (36%) Gridstore Survey, May 2013, ESG Report 2013, Taneja Report 2013

Complexity Manage LUNs not VMs. Bloated data services. Costs Explode Overprovision servers, storage, data services. Poor Performance Unpredictable. No visibility. No Resolution. many-to-one
