  1. Business and Technology Scenario Growth Rate for Enterprise Data

  2. Business and Technology Scenario • World is moving toward e-Business, not just e-commerce • Evolution of e-Business is driving new needs for data management • Rapid growth is straining IT’s ability to manage DB infrastructure • Licensing costs becoming key concern with tightening IT budgets Database technologies today must be scalable and manageable to meet ever growing e-Business needs

  3. Critical Issues Database TechnologyMust Address Going Forward • Advanced Data Handling • Demand For Security • Manageability • Scalability • High Availability • Licensing Cost/TCO

  4. Database Infrastructure Must HandleDatatypes to Meet e-Business Needs Managing Infrastructure Complexity • Infrastructure must supporte-Business integration (IEI) • XML Support • EDI Support • Object portability is the trend of programming in the e-Business future • Java • Com A strong infrastructure planning process and organizationis the key to a successful strategic infrastructure

  5. Security is Critical to thee-Business Environment • Security must span across all layers of the infrastructure, including the database • With the externalization of data, security is as critical at the database layer as it is on the application layer Leading practice organizations are building security services that are unified across platform layers and the applications that use them

  6. Security is Critical to thee-Business Environment Strong Security Across All Levels

  7. Growing Complexity Makes DBMSManageability a Critical Factor • Number and size of databases increasing, number of skilledDBAs decreasing • Organizations must balance shrinking business cycleswith time to implementation • e-Business is forcing organizations to rapidly make changesto existing database infrastructure Planning application functionality, without taking into consideration database complexity tradeoffs up front, slows deployment and increases risk

  8. DBMS Platforms Must Deal WithUnprecedented Need for Scalability • Externalization, ERP & CRM applications driving explosive information capture • Customer expectationsfor fast 7x24 business information access Growth Rate for Enterprise Data 80% of global 2000 companies will be managing over 1 TB of raw business data by 2003-2004

  9. DBMS Platforms Must Address theGrowing Need for 24x365 Availability • Partner connections • Impact of failure within the supply chain • Mobility of the workforce • Impact on productivity • Recentralization • Increases impact if central site has an outage • Increasing self-service • End customer is exposed Availability is now a mass market issue — failing to meet expectations will impact market share, valuation

  10. DBMS Platforms Must Address theGrowing Need for 24x365 Availability

  11. DBMS Licensing and Maintenance Fees Must be Flexible and Competitive • IT Departments must granularly justify licensing costs • Components of TCO are initial licensing fee, maintenance and manageability • DBMS licensing model must balance between flexibilityand utility Failing to negotiate a successful pricing model increases project cost and diverts unnecessary budget from other key IT functions

  12. Establish a Strategic DatabaseInfrastructure Development Discipline Bottom Line • Infrastructure Planners must map business needs to DBMS platform technology solutions that best meet those needs today and 5+ years in the future • Evaluate Platform Costs - Initial licensing costs effects not only up-front costs, but maintenance and TCO going forward Business Impact: The business of IT has changed from point database solutions to overall database infrastructure development
