2 Today s Datacenter Not Yet A Private Cloud Hypervisor Compute challenge largely resolved Hardware abstracted and pooled Dynamic provisioning Self-service / automation through APIs + vrealize Automation, Openstack,.. Snapshot Replication Encryption Device Mgmt. Device Mgmt. SAN NAS All-flash Device Mgmt. Storage still an inhibitor: Storage costs major share of overall datacenter spend 41% YoY data growth Maintaining SLAs (performance, troubleshooting) Supporting dynamic provisioning, selfservice, (slow / cumbersome LUN model)

3 Hot-Edge / Cold-Core Hot Edge CPU/Memory-bound Low Latency Dominated by flash Hybrid All-SSD All-Flash x86 Servers Cold Core Capacity-centric Increasing commodity hardware Scale-out, multi-geo Extends into cloud Scale-Out Cloud Storage Object Storage 3

4 Hot-Edge What Does The Future Look Like? SAN / NAS with abstraction (VVOL, ViPR + Cinder) Hyper-converged storage (VSAN, Nutanix, Simplivity) Commodity storage tier (Ceph, ScaleIO) DAS, non-shared Today (KVM / AWS model for non-persistent disks) Hypervisor Storage abstraction (VVOL, ViPR) Hypervisor + storage SW Shared Datastore Hypervisor Shared Datastore Next-gen apps x86 + Direct- Attached Storage x86, hyperconverged systems SAN / NAS SAN / NAS x86, large scale storage tier

5 Hot-Edge VMware Virtual SAN, Where Does It Fit? Radically simple hypervisor-converged storage The Basics vsphere + Virtual SAN Software-defined storage embedded in vsphere Pools HDD/flash into a shared distributed datastore Runs on any standard x86 server SSD HDD SSD HDD SSD HDD Highly resilient - zero data loss in the event of hardware failures Virtual SAN Shared Datastore High performance through flash cache acceleration Elastically scalable Managed through Storage Policy-Based Management Deeply integrated with the VMware stack 5

6 Cold core Capacity Centric Storage Assumptions Performance not a factor Use cases: Write-once/Read many, Unstructured data, Big data Questions What type of data do you consider as capacity tier (Backup/Archival, Traditional Files, Hadoop/Big data) What type of storage do you use for your capacity tier (NAS, Object, etc)? Is on-premise object storage replacing traditional NAS for capacity tier? Have you considered cloud storage for your capacity Is cloud file sharing replacing NAS? 6

7 Next-gen Applications What type of storage do you use for next-gen applications? Is server virtualization considered for these applications? Who maintains the infrastructure (DevOps?)? Is Linux container/docker being considered? 7
