rent VS buy - the car analogy Buy vs. Rent $50/day 4x - 5x cheaper than rent ($10/day) Just pay daily High cost to acquire (pay upfront) High time to acquire (days/weeks) Quick (In minutes or hours) Typically fixed location (home base) Can be rented at almost any location No maintenance cost (operator Need to maintain (User maintains) maintains) Personalized (You pick color etc) Reuse & public (Part of public fleet) 2009 CommunityOne Conference: WEST | developers.sun.com/events/communityone 8

Cloud or Data center Yes No Is your demand reasonably constant? Data center Cloud Can you pretty accurately predict Data center Cloud growth? Can scaling be planned over a period of Data center Cloud time? Is your service delivered to globally Cloud Data center dispersed audience? Is application responsiveness a main Cloud Data center concern? 2009 CommunityOne Conference: WEST | developers.sun.com/events/communityone 10

Need for hybrid Hybrid Part of my demand is Is your demand reasonably constant? constant. There are also sudden spikes I can predict user growth but Can you pretty accurately predict growth? want to plan for spikes and valleys Can scaling be planned over a period of No time? Many of my services need Is your service delivered to globally central compute but needs to dispersed audience? be delivered to a global audience Is application responsiveness a main Yes. Many cases where I need concern? to control hardware types 2009 CommunityOne Conference: WEST | developers.sun.com/events/communityone 11

Why Applications Don’t Perform Waiting for Data • Today’s Multi-Core, Multi-Socket application server design are increasingly held back by slow storage • When requesting data, the server spends most of it’s time waiting for storage • Application performance remain sluggish regardless of the Server CPU horsepower • The traditional remedy of adding more expensive DRAM may no longer suffice as data sets double ever 2 years 2009 CommunityOne Conference: WEST | developers.sun.com/events/communityone 16
