Dell XC Series of Web-scale Converged Appliances – Powered by Nutanix Nutanix .NEXT 2015 Dell XC Series of Web-scale Converged Appliances – Powered by Nutanix

Today’s Agenda Overview Dell – Nutanix partnership XC Series v2.0 overview Dell XC Flexible Configurations Why the hardware is important Dell Services Offerings Q&A

Dell and Nutanix Converge on Datacenter Efficiency Dell – Nutanix Partnership June 2014 Partnership and product strategy announced 2013 Initial discussions between Dell and Nutanix execs Nov 2014 First XC appliances ship on 12G server platform Mar. 2015 XC 2.0 flexible configurations on 13G platform begin shipping June 2015 Wave 2 products announced at .NEXT XC Series 2.0 Wave 2 1U/2U Flexible configs Storage node GPU support ESXi, Hyper-V, KVM 2TB 2.5” drives Dell ProSupport 2 generations of Dell PowerEdge servers Didn’t get serious until june 2014 and quickly got to market Dell really believes in this technology and has made a huge investment in this product offering Launched first offering 5 months after based on 12G to meeting initial market demand Expanded the offers in march based on current Haswell Intel technology Will continue to expand the XC portfolio with range of cost-optimized performance and storage capacities to meet an increasing range of workload demands

Dell XC Series Web-scale Converged Appliances Powered by: Bringing simplicity, scale and efficiency to enterprises through web-scale converged infrastructure Dell PowerEdge 13G server platform with Intel® Xeon® processors, SSDs and NICs Latest Nutanix software and updates Dell HW management integrated within Nutanix Prism UI Dell onsite installation & implementation services Joint support through Dell ProSupport w/software assist from Nutanix Reference architectures for end-to-end solutions Best of breed: Server technology – Dell remains No. 1 server offering Dell global services Nutanix SDS Managabillity Consistency with your current Dell enterprise servers in terms of Management Support Cabling Rack and stack Power Parts replacements Its and Dell SERVER!

Dell XC Models – Flexible Configurations Workload Optimization Workload Example XC630-10 Compute Intensive, Performance Intensive VDI, Test & Dev, Private Cloud, Server Virtualization XC730xd-12 Storage Heavy Exchange, SharePoint, Data Warehouse, Big Data XC730xd-24 Performance Intensive SQL and Oracle OLTP XC730-16 (Q3 2015) Graphics Intensive Graphics VDI, Media Dell Factory Installed Hypervisors: - VMware ESXi 5.5u2 - Windows Server 2012 R2 – Standard or Data Center Edition 1 Yr., 2 Yr., 3 Yr. and 5Yr. Co-terminus ProSupport Breadth and range of offering to satisfy a wide range of workloads and computing environments 1U and 2U form factors Enterprise-class server components including advanced power and thermal monitoring and dual redundant PSUs Need slide on Range of Procs and speeds Range of Memory Range of storage Range of Network interfaces Or strategy is to continue to expand these offerings to offering increased flexibility to match customer workloads and use cases

Dell XC Series Use Cases VDI Scale in small increments, pay as you grow Looking to test from pilot to production Performance / user experience issues Low VDI or IT expertise within the team Greenfield VDI project or no previous VDI experience Enterprise Applications (e.g., MSFT Exchange, SQL, Oracle) High performance applications Different resiliency and criticality needs Looking for advanced capacity optimization Versatile back-up or complex DR needs Manage multiple clusters from one location Private cloud Need to provide multiple users clones of production data Scale 10,000+ users with high performance Identify bottlenecks quickly Quickly deploy test/development environments Branch Office Multiple remote offices to deploy and manage Minimal on-site configuration Low IT expertise at branch office Complex DR and back up requirements (1-1, one to many, many to one) Although SDS is not limited to these use cases, these are the predominate use cases in the market today Solution offerings including whitepapers, reference architectures, and best practices

Dell XC Web-scale Converged Appliance for VDI Shorten design and procurement time through easy to order prescriptive configurations Install appliances and broker licenses, deploy hundreds of desktops in less than a day Choose from: Dell - Wyse vWorkspace with Microsoft® Hyper-V® or VMware® vSphere® Citrix® XenDesktop®/XenApp® VMware® View® Persistent desktops with HA, dedupe, compression & tiering Converge all compute and storage resources into a single integrated system Monitor and manage through Nutanix Prism single pane of glass management console Start and scale linearly to thousands of users - add performance and capacity as you grow Three prescriptive configurations for 50 to 150* Standard, Enhanced or Advanced users Time to Value Flexible end to end solution Compute + Storage in one system Predictable Cost to Scale *Actual number of users per appliance depends on the broker and hypervisor selected. Based on the Dell XC Series of Web-Scale Converged Appliances Dell XC630 server + Nutanix® Dell also offers a complete packaged solution for VDI based on the XC appliance. 1-stop shop for the entire solution including support The VDI appliance has been right-sized and performance optimized for VDI workloads. Sizing tools Offers extremely fast time to value Grow as you need The Wyse Datacenter Appliance XC is an Appliance Architecture-guided solution centered around the Dell XC Series of Web-scale Converged Appliances. The appliance architecture provides thin client recommendations and sizing guidance. ???
