The Mission – “Make the Plumbing Disappear!” “Make the plumbing disappear – in the Datacenter, in the Cloud, on the Desktop…” “How can I extend my server and storage investment?” “How can I deploy new services faster and with less effort/training?” “How can I make my applications, esp. email, more available?” “How can my backups be faster and more predictable?” “How can I stop worrying about daily IT operations and plan for the future?”

Recent CIO Surveys Agree: Virtualization is the Top CIO Priority in a Tough Economic Environment Source: Merrill Lynch CIO Survey, Oct 28 th, 2008 Source: Goldman Sachs IT Spending Survey, Nov 2nd, 2008 “The current environment has moved virtualization toward the top of the priority list for CIOs.” “Total cost of ownership (TCO) reductions will be a key driver of the acceleration in server virtualization deployments as CIOs are forced to cut capital spending and reign in management, administrative and power/ cooling costs.”

Hardwa re Virtualized World Physical World What is Virtualization? Traditional x86 Architecture Legacy rule: Run only one application per server because single application crashes result in OS or server failure Typical hardware utilization under 8% Virtualization: New rule: Run multiple applications per server because OS/applications are isolated from one another Typical hardware utilization 80%

23 Meet Service Levels Efficiently Using VMware virtual infrastructure, we can offer the same levels of service and more flexibility for up to 40 percent lower server and operating costs.” Rob Jones, Director of Technology, ALSTOM Reduce Costs “Using VMware software has brought a huge cost benefit to IT - avoiding costs by $1.1 million is fantastic. For every production virtual machine, we estimate a $7,500 cost avoidance per server. We multiply 150 applications by $7,500 and estimate a $1.1 million cost avoidance. Barry Naber, Technology Manager at International Truck and Engine Corporation Customer Testimonials Simplify Management The net impact of utility computing with VMware Infrastructure 3 for the business is higher service levels, for IT - it is simplified and easier to manage infrastructure.

The Good News when there is Bad News Increase Productivity, Operational Flexibility and Responsiveness 3 Reduce Datacenter Operating Cost 2 Reduce Physical Infrastructure Cost 1 Less physical servers at both your production and disaster recovery site Free up servers for use as additional recovery resources Fewer servers to maintain means your IT staff can spend more time innovating Centralized, electronic DR plans are simpler and more cost-effective Automated DR means faster and more reliable recovery Non-disruptive DR testing Reduced risk of an expensive outage
