The Kinetic Open Storage Platform: Preview of Kinetic Lowers TCO Disaggregates storage from compute Improves performance Increases innovation, agility and efficiency
Where object storage fits Object Storage Storage For the Web accessed via APIs/URLs. Images, Videos, Sensor data, IoT data, DB, tweets, FB entries, email Infinitely scalable, ultra reliable. Metered - Pay as you go Self serviced Write once, read occasionally. Language is Puts and Gets over IP File Storage Local FS or NAS, protocols CIFS, NFS mounted, relationship based. Shared files, company-wide access. Scalability, reliability and cost constrained. Great for partial file access, Relational DB, content editing/rendering. Open, Close, Read, Write, Append, Chmod, Chown, Touch, Delete, Copy, Move Block Storage The native language of Hard Disk Drives. No concept of files, Operating systems etc. Antiquated but very standardised. Of no benefit to the higher layers. Private. Need to know Direct Attached and SAN storage, FC, iscsi, SAS, SATA, LUNs, provisioning, snapshot, etc Read, Write, Format, on SCSI (over SAS, iscsi or FC) or SATA https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/fagansbucket/lions.jpg 3
Zettabytes 2020 Capacity requirement exceeds supply Get used to it! 44ZB Amount of data will be created 13ZB Amount of data that will need to be stored 6.5ZB Amount of data that installed capacity will be able to hold 60% in the cloud 6 5 4 90% of the growth is in object storage 3 2 1 0 2000 2005 2010 2015 2020 Demand for Storage Storage Industry Output 4

Market Momentum Open Source Communities STX Kinetic Software Stacks STX Kinetic Systems STX Kinetic Pilot Customers CSPs F1000 Telco OEMs Gov Initial drive product launch in Q4, STX system Q2! Seagate Kinetic Awards 7
Kinetic Value Proposition For Scale Out, Object Storage Architectures as compared to current alternatives Performance up to 4x* faster Rack Density up to 1.5x increase Scalability Infinite Device Innovation up to 2 years faster $$$ Storage Servers up to 100% reduction CAPEX up to 15% reduction OPEX (Power & Staffing) up to 70% reduction TCO up to 40% reduction * Performance characterization still in progress 8
Why now is different Then Phenomenal Capacity growth OEM centric High value Storage stacks HDD guys as servants Channel - afterthought Now Drive clumping to very large pools I.T. is what the CSP does Take cost out of the stack Complexity sprawl, tiering, SDx Channel - central 9
Why now is different HDD Vendors now have significant input into how storage is done now contributing to the discussion and thought leadership taking responsibility to engage further up the stack Seagate is leading the way in these new engagements engaging with all major CSPs and disk users WW redefining the engagement with the rest of the industry Witness Kinetic 10
