  5. Top Tier Technology Partnerships Strong relationships with industry partners leads to high levels of customer satisfaction � Joint customer support agreements � Certified and validated � Ongoing interoperability testing � Best practices guidance � Collaborative design efforts Compellent Confidential, 5

  6. Oracle Compellent Technology Partners � Compellent Technologies: � Oracle PartnerNetwork � Unbreakable Linux � Certified � RHEL 4 & 5, Oracle Enterprise Linux 4 & 5 � Real Application Cluster � Real Application Cluster � Single Instance � Automatic Storage Management � Oracle Clustered File System � EXT3 � Oracle VM Certified � First SAN11g Certified Compellent Confidential, 6

  7. Storage Pain Points Pain Point Business Impact CAPEX Inactive Data 80% of data is managed on high-cost drives Inefficient Storage Utilization Wasted disk drive capacity on empty space Risk of Technology Obsolescence Forklift upgrades, CAPEX wasted, downtime OPEX OPEX Need for Virtual Infrastructure Inefficient use of capital, difficult to manage System Complexity How many people manage storage today? Power, Cooling & Floorspace Costs skyrocketing, run out of power & floorspace AVAILABILITY Disaster Preparedness Expensive, disruptive DR implementation & test System Uptime Outages consume resources, impact production Backup and Recovery Recovery from tape is slow and unreliable Compellent Confidential, 7

  8. Compellent Storage Center Scalable Enterprise-class SAN with the lowest TCO in the industry � Reduce CAPEX by over 74% – Automated Tiered Storage – Thin provisioning � Cut OPEX in half – Less administration: no training required – Reduced bandwidth, power, cooling, rackspace � Ensure continuous data availability � Ensure continuous data availability – Unlimited snapshots without full copies – Replication flexibility for low-cost DR � Supports any open-systems server without agents – Connect via FC, iSCSI or both – Scale from 1TB to over 700 TB – OS Support: Windows, Solaris, HP-UX, Linux, AIX, Netware, Mac OS X, Tru64, Open VMS, VMware � Investment Protection – Seamless growth: no more forklift upgrades Compellent Confidential, 8

  9. Today’s Storage Patchwork Point Products | Complexity | Integration Challenges | Excessive Costs | Dead-Ends Software Solutions Product Scale Technology Choices Information Lifecycle Fibre Channel Management Enterprise iSCSI SAN Management Serial ATA Serial ATA Backup, Replication, Recovery SAS Mid-Range Storage Provisioning Mid-Tier Fibre Channel Virtualization Solid State Entry Level Storage Resource Proprietary Hardware Management Compellent Confidential, 9

  10. Compellent’s Integrated Architecture A single, scalable product that integrates all the functionality Unified ILM Storage Fibre Enterprise Virtualization Channel Virtualization Functions SAN iSCSI Management Management Mid-Tier FC Backup, Replication, Recovery Serial ATA Storage Provisioning All Server Technology OS’s Storage Resource Independence Management Industry Standard NAS Modular Scalability Non-disruptive upgrades Compellent Confidential, 10

  11. Hardware Overview Server and disk drive technology independence — Mix and match any combination Storage Center Controllers • Standards-based hardware • Server and disk connections via PCI cards • Controller clustering for high availability – “Shared nothing” approach • High-speed mirrored, write-back cache • High-speed mirrored, write-back cache Storage Center Disk Enclosures • Scale from 1TB to over 700TB • Expand storage online • FC switched disk enclosures (SBOD) – Drives supported: FC – 10K, 15K • SATA disk enclosures Compellent Confidential, 11

  12. The Compellent Advantage: Dynamic Block Architecture � The only storage solution that manages data inside the volume Dynamic Block Architecture � � Metadata – Creation, Access, and Modification time – Frequency of access – Disk drive type/RAID level – Disk drive type/RAID level � Sophisticated data movement engine � No performance impact � U.S. Patents issued - more pending � Automated Tiered Storage � Thin replication and snapshots Compellent Confidential, 12

  13. SSD � NAND vs NOR random access � Single Level Cell vs Multi Level Cell Compellent Confidential, 13

  14. � Nano or micro seconds latency � 2.000 – 45.000 IOPS per disk Compellent Confidential, 14

  15. Automated Management of Inactive Data The ONLY SAN to automate ILM inside the volume Benefits Data Progression Advantage � Patented technology automatically moves inactive data to lower tiers � Eliminates RAID 5 write penalty write penalty � 74% less disk costs � Reduced power, cooling and floorspace � Automatically move snapshots to lower tiers Traditional Approach to Tiered Storage � No server side agents required � Entire Volume movement ONLY � Manual data movement � Manual data classification � Extra software on each server Compellent Confidential, 15

  16. Reduced System Complexity Block-level virtualization improves asset utilization and performance Virtualization Benefits Compellent Advantage Compellent Traditional SAN � Optimized data placement Drive type/speed Multiple One � All volumes span all drives RAID type Multiple One � Higher performance Drive capacity Any One Change RAID level Any time Downtime required � Change RAID levels � Change RAID levels Performance tuning Automatic Manual anytime Auto re-striping Yes No � No performance tuning � Simplified capacity planning Compellent Confidential, 16

  17. The real discussion is about useable capacity unused empty 60 GB Raid 10 20% active 60 GB 500GB Volume used Data 240 GB 80% inactive Raid 5 300 GB 27 GB CML Total = 387 GB CML Total = 387 GB RAID 500GB RAID 10 overhead Legacy SAN total = 1TB FC Disks ( $ $ $ ) FibreChannel Disks SATA Disks ( $ ) ( $ $ $ ) Compellent Confidential, 17

  18. Rapid Data Recovery Industry’s most advanced snapshots reduce downtime and save time Data Instant Replay Benefits Data Instant Replay Advantage � Readable and writeable Replays Traditional instantly Snapshots Compellent Mount by any Yes No � Space efficient – freeze Approach server pointers Recovery time Seconds Hours– Cloning required Cloning required � No space pre-allocation 8:00 Writeable Yes No � Integration with common 8:15 Boot volume Yes No applications Maximum Unlimited Limited 8-12 8:30 allowed � Reduce dependence Pre-allocation None 20-50% on tape 8:45 required Copy-on-write No Yes � Patented technology Drive type used Any– Same as active user defines volume Compellent Confidential, 18

  19. Boot From SAN Lower server costs by more than $100,000 for every 25 servers The Complete Boot From SAN Solution Boot from SAN Benefits � Diskless servers � Thin provisioned boot volumes � Less power, cooling and � Less power, cooling and floorspace � “Spawning” of boot images � Replace failed servers in less than 15 minutes � Easy to replicate boot images for DR Compellent Confidential, 19

  20. Simplified, Low-cost Disaster Recovery Live testing anytime, fast recovery minimizes outage time Thin Replication Benefits Remote Instant Replay Advantage Quality of M-F M-F Sat 8:00 – 17:00 – 0:00 – � Anytime DR validation Service 17:00 5:00 24:00 Oracle 45% 10% 30% New York London � Significant reduction in Exchange 45% 10% 30% bandwidth and File servers 10% 80% 40% management costs � No space pre-allocation � Integrated IP & FC – No extra hardware to buy � Replication in 6 clicks Orlando � One button, automated restore � Patented technology Thin Provisioned Replay Volume Schedule Compellent Confidential, 20

  21. Site Recovery Manager Storage Adapter � Accelerate Recovery – Ensures you meet your recovery time objectives with failover automation � Non-Disruptive Testing – Ability to execute non-disruptive tests in isolated environments � Simplified Recovery – Simplified and centralized process for recovery. Easier to manage and update. – But…limited to 2 sites and the storage doesn’t “follow” the server failover automatically. Compellent Confidential, 21

  22. Traditional Disaster Recovery – Manual Effort Step 1: Remote site recovery Step 2: Primary site restore • Stop replication • Initiate restore process • Start recovery process • Re-start replication • View volumes • View volumes • Map volumes • Map volumes • Restart applications • Restart applications 1.
