Physical devices are increasingly irrelevant.

2009 was a cross-over year: 7m physical servers; 7m+ virtual servers

The Strategic Goal: Evolve Virtual Infrastructure to an IT Service Delivery Platform

“The average virtualization rate is moving from 20-40% today to 60-80% by 2015”

Initial Virtualization Deployments

Virtualizing the first 20-30% of server infrastructure is

easy.

Getting to 60-80% and achieving the promised agility and cost savings

requires modernizing and automating service-level

processes.

IT Budget Challenge? How? Who?

Server Costs

Reduce server capex/opex costs through consolidation and automated provisioning.

Server virtualization

Storage Costs

Reduce the cost of storage :

Server virtualization increases storage requirements by 2x – 8x (Gartner)

Storage virtualization with deduplication everywhere

ComplexityVirtualization requires new approaches to service-level management.

Single set of tools and processes across physical and virtual

Virtualization Risk Challenge? How? Who?

Data Protection

Automated recovery for virtual apps and data.

Modernized recovery architecture.

SecurityProtect virtual infrastructure against rapidly changing threats.

Protection optimized for virtual infrastructure.

High Availability

HA/DR for virtualizing more business-critical applications.

Modernized HA/DR application monitoring and recovery.

Are we getting the cost savings? • How are we dealing with the 2x-8x

storage growth challenge?• Have we virtualized our storage? • Do we know our actual utilization

rates?• Are we using deduplication

everywhere?• Are we leveraging common

management tools across physical and virtual?

Are we managing the risks?• Have we updated our DR plans?• Are we automating backup for

every virtual server we have?• Are we ready for the next

generation of security threats? • Can we virtualize business-critical

applications? • Can we manage the performance

challenges of virtual desktops?

Where Do You Stand Today?

Virtualization Storage Challenge


• Virtualization increases storage costs……“2x-8x” –Gartner 2010

• Storage is the largest capex component of new virtualization projects

… “34-40%” –TechAlpha

• Virtualization increases storage complexity

• Performance suffers at scale

“Save on servers but then spend it on storage?”

Disrupting the Economics of NAS Under VMWare

• Use any storage• Lower-cost alternative to

proprietary controllers• Scale with non-disruptive

elasticity• Reduce storage for virtual

desktops by 70-80%• Automate VM provisioning • Eliminate the “boot storm”

15

The Data Protection Challenge


• Virtualization means more data to protect

• Full recoverability requires protecting physical and virtual

• Optimizing performance with the right architecture is critical

• Need fast recovery options…files, apps, data centers

16

Data Protection Optimized for Virtualization

Deduplication at the source or the target

Virtual aware data protection, management,

and deduplication

Reduce storage consumption with single

backup, two recovery options

17

The Virtualization Security Challenge


• Threat landscape evolving

• Virtualization increases complexity

• Traditional perimeter-based security controls inadequate

18

Symantec Endpoint Protection and Compliance for Virtual Environments

• Optimized malware, firewall, and intrusion prevention for virtual environments

– VMWare , Microsoft Virtual Server 2000, Hyper-V

• Optimized performance– Randomized scanning and updates minimize

performance impact

• Scanning of offline VMs

• Server hardening– Conform to VMWare hardening guidelines

and Symantec security best practices

19

Symantec Endpoint Protection Virtualization

The Endpoint Challenge


• Mobility and changing workforce expectations creating new demands on IT

• Traditional desktop management model is labor-intensive and doesn’t work for all user populations

• End user license compliance is challenging and error-prone

Virtualization High Availability Challenges


1. Source: IDC, October 2009. Choosing Storage for Virtualized Servers. For companies with > 1,000 employees.

Today’s Solutions are Not Enough

• Protection for physical, not application failures

• Workarounds are manual and error-prone and don’t leverage virtualization
