Oracle s Engineered Systems Portfolio NEW! Exadata Exalogic Big Data Appliance SuperCluster Database Appliance Exalytics Oracle Virtual Compute Appliance 7
Virtual Compute Appliance Enables operation of the system as one unit, not many individual servers Adding compute by automatically discovering, installing, and adding individual servers as system resources Web-based central front end mgmt console: Like a laptop in a mainframe End-to-end automation and orchestration Software Defined Networking (SDN) automates set-up (leveraging Oracle Fabric Interconnect) Handles installation, upgrade, and HA behind the scenes Dynamic resource management Uniquely full stack: rapid application deployment with Oracle VM Assemblies Fits easily into existing data centers Run any x86-based OS and application without modifications Use Oracle- or third party storage Easy. 8
Initial User Experience: Hardware Provisioning Ready to create VMs and deploy assemblies in 1 hour Power on the rack(s) Appliance auto-configures and auto-provisions [~45 minutes] Log in to configure management IP/Hostname [~5 minutes] Configure internal storage [~10 minutes] Discover/configure NFS storage Create Oracle VM Storage repository Simple expansion Physically install new compute node and turn it on Appliance auto-provisions new node, making it ready to use Fast. 9
