Consolidation Virtualization Technology
Priorities center around:
– Cost cutting
– Efficiency / Optimization
– Business needs
– Server hardware savings
– Power cooling costs
– Real estate / floor space
– Computing is changing
– Moore’ Law
– Industry consolidation

Convergence – Not an Island
Convergence is aligned with huge growth in CPU performance and technology / market dynamics
2005 – 2010• CPU performance 15x• I/O bandwidth only 2.5x
I/O needs to be balanced to maintain performance and efficiency

Data Center Needs
Data Center managers are looking to• Consolidate IO hardware to reduce power and cabling
cost• Provide dedicated bandwidth to VMs and Applications• Reduce IO emulation overhead by directly assigning
IO hardware to VMs• Conserve IO slots by virtualizing IO hardware

SAN Deployment and Management Processes
• Install servers, HBAs and storage• Cable servers, switches, storage• Assign LANs/SANs to installed servers
Later, when needed• Add new storage
– Create SAN connection/zoning– Provision Storage on host
• Create new LUNs– Get SAN connection/create Zoning– Provision Storage on host
• Add virtual machine– Provision host– Get SAN connection/create Zoning– Get SAN connection– Create LUNs on Storage system– Provision LUN on host system

Challenge:• Increasing SWD sales with Converged

Perception:Virtual Connect delivers unique value, but the price is too high
Tactical Solution – what often happens:
• Remove Virtual Connect, replace with a lower cost SAN
• Level the price position – but lose the HP value
• HP solution now similar to IBM and Dell bundles
