• Term coined by Clayton Christensen in his book The

Innovator's Dilemma to denote a technology that – aside (or because of) its technical merit has revolutionary economics

• Classic examples:

> Digital photography disrupted film

Disruptive Innovation

> Steamships disrupted sailing ships > Minicomputers disrupted mainframes > EMC (with RAID- & cache-based storage) disrupted IBM in DASD > Linux/x86 disrupted UNIX/RISC

• Often involve a redistribution of margin: lower overall margin

but much higher volume and broader market

• Over time, the value in a storage product has trended from hardware to

software...

• ...but storage hardware has remained unnecessarily custom (i.e.,

expensive and slow)

• Sun has built an appliance out of industry standard components

(servers + JBODs): higher performing, cheaper

Why is the S7000 Series disruptive?

(servers + JBODs): higher performing, cheaper

• ...and because COGS of software is $0.00, Sun need not monetize the

software directly – software development costs can be paid with marginal increase in revenue

• Adds up to disruption: 2X performance at ½ cost
• The 7000 Series would have been disruptive based on these

economics alone, but along came flash memory...

• Flash memory now sits between DRAM and 15K RPM disk in terms of

performance and price:

> Flash is microseconds per op, where DRAM is nanoseconds and disk is

milliseconds

> Flash is tens of dollars per GB, where DRAM is hundreds of dollars per GB and

disk is dollars per GB

The disruptive effects of Flash

• Seeing this trend, we integrated flash into a hybrid storage pool, where

read-optimized flash is used as a cache

• Cache is up to 600GB in currently shipping products, but curves are

steep: headed much higher (and much cheaper!)

• For random-read workloads, flash + 7200 RPM drives yields 4X

performance of 15K RPM drives at ¼ cost!
