Appliance Advantages – Specially for Large volume deployments • Low price-point: • The cost of entry for implementing an appliance is relatively low in comparison to traditional Software/hardware stack because of the commodity components used • Total Cost of Ownership: • TCO=Initial purchase price + Time-to-Value+ Cost of maintaining a well performing, stable environment. The Maintenance alone forms 80% of the TCO which is the personnel costs to monitor and tune the system. This is considerably reduced by appliances. • One-stop-shop: • Appliances blend hardware processors and disks and software into a single solution, meaning you get everything from a single vendor • Fast performance: • As the software is specifically optimized to run on the selected hardware, there are dramatically reduced response times for traditionally long-running queries, often from hours to minutes. • Netezza customers have reported a 10-50 times Faster Performance • Quick implementation • As the appliance pre-integrates hardware, software and storage components, there is a lessened management and maintenance burden for IT

Virtualization Virtualization technologies improve IT resource utilization, increases flexibility needed to adapt to changing requirements and workloads. Virtualization plus service-level, policy based automation constitutes a RTI. • Various types of Virtualization • Application Virtualization (app need not have to be designed for shared use) • Data Virtualization (Federation of heterogeneous data through middle layer) • Storage Virtualization (insulated from location and management details) • Desktop Virtualization (workspace and applications run remotely) • Server Virtualization (multiple guest OS on single host) • Clustering (Aggregation) • Grid Computing (Aggregation) • Business Benefits • Business continuity and disaster recovery • Flexibility and agility • Server consolidation and utilization improvement • Reduced downtime • Reduced administration cost
Virtualization Trends • Virtualization has gained good ground with IT owners as one of their key strategy for building next generation IT infrastructure • Virtualization aligns well with ‘Service virtualization’ trends like “SOA”, “Utility Computing”, “SaaS” etc. • Below are some indication of it’s future pervasiveness • Chipset level virtualization support from Intel (VT/Vanderpool) and AMD (Pacifica) • Binary compatible support for Linux on Solaris 10 containers • Microsoft virtual server • Global Grid Forum (in alliance with OASIS, DMTF etc.) leading its effort to build framework for deployment and management of service on Grid • Adoption of web services as the base framework for Grid based systems • Software appliances gaining mindshare • Increasing preference for horizontal scaling with Lintel boxes • Future • With such pervasiveness it is only logical to expect increasing demand for services around virtualization
