© Cloudmark Inc. | Cloudmark System Messaging Security Application Server Uses MySQL master/slave replication 1 MySQL Master at primary datacenter (22U rack space) 1 MySQL Slave at primary datacenter (8U rack space) 1 MySQL Slave at secondary datacenter (6U rack space) 2 MySQL Slave at tertiary datacenter (12U rack-space) Analysis Server 1 NFS server (3U rack-space)

© Cloudmark Inc. | Challenges Reaction time is one of the most important requirements Spam/Phishing/Virus/Botnets constantly looking for ways around Cloudmark’s filtering, requiring extremely fast response time to new threats (seconds, not minutes) Rapid business and data growth constantly ate up extra performance gained from hardware upgrades and expansion Data growth and performance requirement meant Repeated investments into storage arrays Increased rack-space and floor space Increased operational costs Continual need for technical talent to tune MySQL-based applications (IE, tune the queries)

© Cloudmark Inc. | Architecture Transformed Current (With growth) SJC Master:8U (DL580 G5 + 2x HP MSA70’s) SJC:9U (DL580 G5, 2x DL380 G5, DL360 G5 + 2x 160GB FIO/ea) NJ:4U (2x DL380 G5 + 2x 160GB FIO/ea) SFO2:1U (1x DL360 G5 + 2x 160GB FIO/ea) Total:22U (more space used, but far more performance and system redundancy) Growth is supported without any loss in performance

© Cloudmark Inc. | Cloudmark wins Off the chart performance improvement 5x improvement in replication performance 5x improvement in data analysis performance Dramatic Foot-print reduction 31U of rack-space recovered 180 points of failure (drives) eliminated from the architecture Greatly reduced power and cooling expenses A double-edged sword that cuts the bottleneck from both sides Gain Performance Reduce Operational costs
