2 MASSIVELY SCALED INFRASTRUCTURE FOR VERIZON CLOUD COMPUTE AND STORAGE Challenge Create the world s highest performance enterprise class public cloud Provide granular, customized configurations defined by the user Uncompromising security with strict partitioning for every virtual machine Solution SeaMicro SM15000 server (Xeon and Opteron ) Freedom Fabric Storage 5084-L Enclosures Co-develop technology for advanced cloud computing capabilities We reinvented the public cloud from the ground up to specifically address the needs of our enterprise clients. We wanted to give them back control of their infrastructure providing the speed and flexibility of a generic public cloud with the performance and security they expect from an enterprise-grade cloud. Our collaboration with AMD enabled us to develop revolutionary technology, and it represents the backbone of our future plans. John Considine CTO, Verizon Terremark Results Most robust set of SLAs for VM provisioning and availability Customizable configurations with granular processor speed and memory options Guaranteed networking and storage performance with secure, granular traffic control
