  23. Value Proposition of the Application Switch • Distributed applications are supported by “integration services” at the points of entry into the network • Application Switching occurs at the network entry as opposed to a remote server resulting in better application performance • Integration services are available to all all entities attached to the network utility • Application developers can focus on business logic and data as opposed to configuring networking functions in the servers • Network-switching functions and application services functions are closely coupled • Application switching can gain the same performance levels as the networking gear

  24. Next Steps • Subject to approval to go head • Team structure • Decision on platforms on which Application Switch is based • Prioritization of activities • Architectural Work • Product Phasing • What to build, What to buy, where to partner, etc
