Deploying a Dynamic Data Center2 Common Options to Start from

Deploy a Custom Dynamic Data Center Pros: Increased flexibility, wider range of systems, multi-architecture Cons: Integration time, multi vendor support, management complexity

Deploy a Dynamic Data Center with ConvergedInfrastructure Systems Pros: Time to market, easy to maintain, lower integration costs Cons: Fewer configuration options, one systems architecture

What Is Data Center Fabric?

Industry Definition A set of compute, storage, memory and

I/O components joined through a fabric interconnect and the software toconfigure and manage them

Oracle’s Data Center Fabric Connecting to any server, any storage

and any network Virtualizes your storage and network

infrastructure by defining connectivityin software

Benefits Reconfigure your resources quickly Reduce infrastructure complexity

(fewer cards, fewer cables, easier management)

Bluelock Needed Adaptable andFaster Infrastructure

Situation

Enterprise cloud hosting provider, one of only a handful of companies certified to offer “VMware vCloud® Datacenter Services”

Clients can fluidly migrate their VMware-based applications to Virtual Datacenters hosted in the public cloud

Clients can get started with projects quickly and enjoy the freedom to change their minds as IT needs evolve

Challenges

Increasing infrastructure complexity: – Every server needed 10 physical

I/O connections

– 50 network devices required to deploy every 500 virtual machines

Evacuation of all the VMs takes hours, limiting the number of VMs that could reside on a single server

Modifications to add new capability or new resources were time consuming


Bluelock Achieved 40X more Usable Bandwidth per Server with Virtualization

VM VM VM

Solutions

Oracle Virtual Networking significantly simplified infrastructure

High throughput server-to-server communications enable faster vMotion event

Configuration changes can be made entirely in software, allowing resources to be re-assigned in minutes

Wire-once environment streamlines disaster recovery services

Results

40X more usable bandwidth per server

17X more VMs per hardware device

8X greater virtual machine capacity

97.5% fewer network devices 66% less I/O cabling Lower power consumption

and improved uptime

Easy, Linear Expansion and Integration

Base configuration: 2 compute nodes for hosting VMs Expand by adding any number of individual

compute nodes – Up to 25 total

No cable hassles: Pre-cabled for all 25 nodes from the factory– IB and Ethernet pulled-up to each rack space whether populated or not

– Easy expansion: Just push-in new compute nodes and connect cables

Easily connects to any existing Ethernet network Expand storage by simplify connecting to any NAS or iSCSI array
