The Evolution of Utility Services
Water, Power, Telco…and now the Cloud
– The Cloud will be a Utility
– Massive Scale, Lower Cost, Right Sized
and Modular
New Data Center Models
– SMB
– Hybrid Enterprise Data Center
– Hyper-Scale Service Providers
New Lego Building Blocks for the Cloud
– New SMB Network Edge
– New Data Center Container
Network Optimized Delivery – (Compute,
Apps, I/O, Storage)
– Fat Pipes
– Multi-Gb Wireless drives massive mobility
Connecting the New Utility to the New Data
Centers
– Ethernet Continues to Scale and Grab
Share
– Latency continues to be reduced

Trends Driving the Cloud
New Server Deployment Models
– New Server Access Tier (VDI/Mobile)
– SSD (Slow RAM-Fast Cache/Storage)
– Technology traditionally deployed @
campus/branch being now consolidating in
data center
Emergence of “The Other x86 Market”
– Large XSPs are blurring lines between the
enterprise & telecom providers
Fatter Cores with Thinner Edge Computing
– Network Optimized Delivery – Adapters,
WAN Tools, Closet Gear, Appliances
Cloud Optimized Clients
(VDI/Mobile) & Networking
– Increase spend for software and networking
of remote access from campus/branches
– VDI, software-as-a-service (SaaS), WAN
Content Delivery Networks (CDN),
Application Optimized Controllers (AOC),
Network Performance Delivery (NPD)
– Contextual Computing
Green, Commoditization & Consolidation
– Consolidation at every data center tier
– Liquid cooling vs. AC
– DC vs. AC power
