Problems with IT

• Islands of computation
• Configured for peak loads
• Limited scalability
• Availability lt 99.x
• Fragmented security
• Escalating costs
• Affects all businesses
• Decentralized management

Skill Set Dispossession
Early 1990s
MVS, VM, VSE, VAX/VMS
Unix/RISC

• Required skill set transfer, from mainframe skill
  sets
• Very expensive process
• Took a decade to complete

High Availability Approach - Redundancy
10
Redundancy eliminates Single Points Of Failure
(SPOF) Reduces cost of planned and unplanned
outages
11
Auto detect Failures (hardware, network,
applications) Automatic Recovery from failures
(no human intervention)Managed failover to
standby systems, components

The Next Step for Linux?

• Linux is fulfilling the original goal of Unix
• Provide a highly commoditized operating system,
  built on open standards
• Intel is delivering a commoditized server
  infrastructure
• Blade Server Architecture
• Customers are achieving excellent TCO with Linux
  on Intel
• What technology trend will follow Linux?

14
Enterprise Linux

• Enhancing Enterprise Linux Stability
  Reliability
• World-class Community of Enterprise Linux
  Partners

New OpportunityStandard Building Blocks
Old Question What size server does this new
application need and what is the best server and
O/S combination?
New Question How many standard building blocks
does this new application need?
2 Processor
4 Processor
4 Node Cluster
18
The True Linux Opportunity
Change the entire deployment model Identification
of standards consolidation as a true cost
inhibitor Driving the commoditization of the
hardware platform Delivering a lower operational
cost to our customers
19
Unique Convergence
Low-cost, high performing processors from Intel
and AMD Maturing and development investment in
Linux Clustering product offerings from
Oracle Global, enterprise-class support from
Oracle New deployment model with opportunity to
provide leadership
