Innovation Matters
Takeaways● Business demands fuel IT demand
– Still in the first phases of network computing
● Decision point– Mask complexity through people or eliminate
through engineering

Bottom Line● Still in the first phases of networking
– Expect the number of networked things to grow by another factor of 1M
– New value from automating still-manual processes
● Expect radical transformation of SW and systems– Systems, in particular, are at a watershed– Mask complexity through people or eliminate
through engineering

The Emperor Has No Clothes● Network computing is wildly complex:
no discernible economy of scale● 75+% of IT budgets going to people +
operations● 15–20% typical utilization● Out of the $2.4T WW ICT spending only
a tiny fraction goes to HW/SW systems

What Is O/S for This New System?
NOT these!
What Is O/S for This New System?
Grid Computing Today at Sun13,500 CPUs in 3 cities for processor design
22 years compute time/day98% average CPU usage 24/7/365
● SPARC microprocessor design facilities in Sunnyvale, Austin, Burlington
● Sites use a departmental Cluster Grid approach normally
● Workload is distributed across all sites in an Enterprise Grid approach to meet peak load requirements
22
THROUGHPUT COMPUTING ● New design approach for the UltraSPARC®
processor family● Eclipses throughput of today's processors by
a magnitude of up to 15–30x● Quantum reduction in the cost of network
computing—without software disruption
Network Computing Is Thread RichWeb services, JavaTM applications, database transactions, ERP . . .
Moore’s LawA fraction of the die can already build a good processor core; how am I going to use a billion transistors?
Worsening Memory LatencyIt’s approaching 1000sof CPU cycles! Friend or foe?
Forcing a rethinking of processor architecture – modularity, less is more, time-to-market
