1 Data Center Networking Evolution To The Cloud Jim Morin Product Line Director

2 Ciena Introduction A global supplier serving 18 of the world s 25 largest network operators 2, leading enterprises and mission-critical government networks Technology leadership Global leader in high-capacity (40G and 100G) networking Global leader in network/service automation and mesh switching Emerging leader in Carrier Ethernet Market leadership #1 share in optical in North America 1 and #3 share worldwide 1 17% of the global long-haul WDM segment 1 17% of the global metro WDM segment 1 Approx. 800 customers worldwide 1 Dell Oro optical market share estimates Ciena analysis based on network operator annual revenue

3 Enterprise Networking Challenges Highly valuable information Large information volumes TB to multiple PetaBytes Remote storage replication High-capacity transaction processing Advanced distributed computing HD Video Data Center A miles ( km) 1000s of miles Data Center C Data Center B Enterprise Business Segments Financials Healthcare Manufacturing Retail Transportation Government Content Providers Communications Utilities Typical enterprise network: inter-connecting servers and storage networks in 3+ metro/regional locations

4 Data Center Networking Requirements Data Center tiers each have different networking requirements Core Data Centers (Tier 1) WDM, Carrier Ethernet, SONET Cloud Services Requirements Major Offices (Tier 2) Branch Offices, SOHO (Tier 3) MPLS, Carrier Ethernet, SONET Internet, VPN Bandwidth service Network control Topology Applications Latency Availability Management SLA

5 Data Center Networking Benefits Resource networking enables meeting changing needs for computing, storage and bandwidth Efficiently transport varying bandwidth traffic patterns Manage and quickly troubleshoot issues Lower costs Accommodate new applications, Moves/adds/changes, Acquisitions Provide geographic deployment diversity and resiliency

6 Data Center Networking Business Requirements Data center consolidation Business Continuity/ Disaster Recovery Storage & bandwidth growth Scalability 51% say critical/high priority 46% say critical /high priority 77% have 3 or more data centers 50% have more than 1 Pbyte storage in primary data center 50% have over 5 Gbps data center network WAN 68% think they will need to upgrade WAN within 18 months Workload balancing 39% anticipate using live migration with server virtualization Cloud services Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) services cloud interest Source: Enterprise surveys, The Future of Data Center Wide-Area Networking, Forrester Research 5/10

7 Enterprises & Service Providers Are Meeting At The Cloud Enterprises Enterprises increasingly augmenting data center capacity with cloud-based services Service Providers Service providers leveraging more flexible core infrastructure to offer cloud services public and hybrid Private Cloud Hybrid Cloud Public Cloud

8 Data Center Architecture Evolution Mainframe Client/Server Cloud Resource Location I/O Glass house Channel end/ device end Data center(s) Desktop/LAN/Internet FICON command chaining Fibre Channel P (SCSI) iscsi Virtual FICON zhpf TCW Distributed cache oe/cee Network Circuit 3-tier, packet On-demand Capacity Data movement To 45 Mbps, 155 Mbps Terminal screen Printer, etc. Host file transfer Tape, DASD To 1G, 10G Server to PC PC to internet Server file transfer Storage replication ` 10G, 40G, 100G Virtual Machine (VM) Server to server VM load balancing Storage replication

9 Ciena s Network Virtualization Architecture Ciena s virtualization competence is extending into enabling broader cloud applications Fiber Wavelength Client Network Multiple wavelengths per fiber Multiple slots within a wavelength Multiple clients per physical port Virtual Optical WAN for the cloud Virtualization Dependencies

10 Ciena s Dynamic Cloud Networking Ciena s Layer 1/2 architecture provides flatter design architecture to lower costs with more scalable performance Provides flexible, scalable, dynamic bandwidth for high performance cloud requirements Ciena Carrier Ethernet and WDM for L1/2 user access Ciena on-demand bandwidth for Virtual Machine and storage workload balancing, migrations User Access ` ` Access Network Metro Network Core Network Cloud Service Provider ` ` Enterprise Data Center

11 Virtual Machine Movement Use Cases Bulk VM Migration Move to new data center for geographic re-location Workload balancing of hot spot to less used capacity Application migration to higher capacity server ~ 500 GB, 20 TB storage = 25 TB Amount of Data Time Frequent, Periodic VM Migration Take advantage of processing power for follow sun/moon locations End of period, peak load level need Burst capacity need ~ GB, 10 TB storage = 10.5 TB Unplanned VM Move Disaster avoidance Reached server capacity limit, need immediate offload Immediate new project ~ 50 5 GB, 1 TB storage = 1.25 TB Occasional VM Move Change hardware platform (e.g. Sun to HP) ~ 10 2 GB, 500 GB storage =.52 TB

12 Virtual Machine Movement Use Cases Largest job takes days even with fast networks Value of fast network to quickly respond to urgent needs Bulk VM Migration + Amount of Data Time Frequent, Periodic VM Migration + Unplanned VM Move + + Occasional VM Move Small job still needs Mbps network to get done in less than two days Note: assuming 80% of rated speed, no bw degradation

13 Ciena Accelerated vmotion Demonstration 200 km distance simulation Disk I/O ~ 50 MB/sec VM move takes ~ 10 minutes Disk I/O drops to ~ 1-2 MB/sec reaching across network Results without Ciena and EMC Datacenter A Datacenter B Ethernet Ethernet ESOM Network ESOM 200 Km

14 Ciena Accelerated vmotion Demonstration EMC VPLEX improves I/O to ~ 70 MB/sec Storage data active:active in both locations Ciena Accelerated vmotion VM move takes ~ 1 minute No impact on disk I/O Results with Ciena and EMC Datacenter A Datacenter B Ethernet Ethernet ESOM Network ESOM 200 Km

15 Data Center Networking To The Cloud 1 Understand what business requirements drive your networking challenges and growth demands 2 Look for opportunities to consolidate and aggregate traffic on more efficient platforms to better address the root cause 3 Provide end-to-end management visibility and data to monitor SLA performance 4 Transform your data center networking beyond bandwidth into the clouds with Ciena
