2 2 But First

3 Let s take a trip on the to RAID invented at UC Berkeley

4 Let s take a trip on the to Fibre Channel becomes ANSI standard Microsoft releases Windows NT Client/Server era takes off! 4

5 Let s take a trip on the to Worlds first Network Attached Storage device for Open Systems released by EMC

6 Let s take a trip on the to Storage Area Networks hit the market and a new acronym SAN is introduced to IT professionals. 6

7 Let s take a trip on the to VMware ESX is Born! 7

8 Let s take a trip on the to VMware acquired for $625 million USD 8

9 Let s take a trip on the to VI 3.0 released along with killer feature DRS 9

10 What s next for the data center? Invisible 10

11 Legacy Infrastructure Is Not Invisible 1. Inherent Complexity 2. Inefficient Silos 3. Forklift Scaling 11

12 12 Web-Scale Datacenters Are Simple, Scalable & Invisible

13 13 Web-Scale Datacenters Are Simple, Scalable & Invisible

14 Design Principles For Invisible Infrastructure Design Principles Unbranded x86 servers: fail-fast systems No special purpose appliances All intelligence and services in software Extensive automation and rich analytics Distributed everything Benefits Linear, predictable scale-out Always-on systems Fast innovation in software Operational simplicity Lower TCO 14

15 A brief history of the data center RAID was invented (UCAL Berkeley) 1993 Fibre Channel approved as ANSI standard 1993 Microsoft releases Windows NT Client/Server era takes off! 1995 EMC invents first Network Attached Storage Google was founded 1999 The term SAN becomes the latest TLA in IT s alphabet soup 2001 VMware ESX was born! 2003 vmotion was released GAME CHANGER! 2003 EMC purchased the majority of VMware for $625 million 2003 Google File System (GFS) introduced to the public 2006 DRS is introduced as killer app in VI

16 The Next Wave of IT DISTRIBUTED FILE SYSTEM (NDFS) Apache Zookeeper Paxos Algorithms 16

17 Ingredients for Invisible Infrastructure Massive and linear Single- Node Scale-Out Architecture with Truly Distributed Data and Control Plane No Reliance on: Hypervisor components, 3 rd Party Management, or Proprietary Hardware Data-Locality, Optimized for Performance and No Hotspots, Support Central Storage Functions (HA,DRS) Independent Upgrade and Hardware Refresh Cycles, No More Forklift Upgrades 17

18 A brief history of the data center The final chapter RAID was invented (UCAL Berkeley) 1993 Fibre Channel approved as ANSI standard 1993 Microsoft releases Windows NT Client/Server era takes off! 1995 EMC invents first Network Attached Storage Google was founded 1999 The term SAN becomes the latest TLA in IT s alphabet soup 2001 VMware ESX was born! 2003 vmotion was released GAME CHANGER! 2003 EMC purchased the majority of VMware for $625 million 2003 Google File System (GFS) introduced to the public 2006 DRS is introduced as killer app in VI Nutanix Founded by lead GFS Developers 18
