Fivekey essential characteristics of cloud ‘as a Service’ Consumer concerns are abstracted from provider concerns through service interfaces On-demand scalability adds or removes resources as needed, Scalable & Elastic flexible contracting (short term, ease of exit) Multi-tenant Shared resources allow economies of scale Services are tracked with usage metrics to enable multiple Metered billing payment models Internet Services are delivered through use of standardized identifiers, Technologies formats, and protocols 4 © 2010 SunGard. | www.sungard.co.uk

Editor's Notes
- #2 The following presentation presents a high-level vision for SunGard Availability Services in the arena of cloud services.
- #5 This slide describes the characteristics of cloud. Service, Scalable, Elastic, multi-tenant based infrastructure, metered billing delivered through Internet technologies interfaces.
- #6 This slide describes the three services models in the context of cloud computing.
- #12 Dual Site (active- active)
- #14 Local cloud presence in Europe, USA and Canada.
- #16 These risks are already addressed within an existing IT infrastructure. Hence, the Cloud will also need to mitigate these risks.
- #17 Multi-tenancy & Virtualization – Is Virtualization secure and will one customers be truly not overlap with another customer on the same system? Customers are often concerned that regulatory reasons might need them to stay on a dedicated system – however there is a risk/reward tradeoff to deal with. Data Governance – Customers are concerned that they don’t have direct visibility into where their data will reside or who will interact with it and how. Hence. this is ultimately about information lifecycle management Application Integration – As part of the Cloud adoption, Customers are not willing to rewrite their entire application – While the Cloud is ideal for new projects that can be contained within the Cloud, in the short term they are looking to leverage as much of their existing assets as possible (including hardware and software) to protect their current investment. This requires a hybrid approach that leverages the Cloud for part of the overall application – requiring integration with the customers datacenter or their colo footprint Monitoring – Customers who ran their own cloud are used to keeping track of the various thresholds of their environment for managing the health of their applications proactively. In the Cloud, customers are concerned about being in the dark about the health of their virtual assets but also the health of the overall platform – they want to know whether there is someone truly taking care of the platform as a whole Oracle - the last major issue on every CXOs mind is whether they can get Oracle to run on the virtual environment or how their apps can still run leveraging the cloud and not breaking any contract definitions Manageability – none of the previous issues can truly be addressed without any clear form of SLAs – its these SLAs that actually serve to reduce the risk for the customer. SLAs however come in varying sizes and shapes and require a deeper understanding from the customer
- #20 Well, a holistic solution is comprised of SunGard's Recover Anywhere solution and Workplace Recovery centres as illustrated in this conceptual diagram. All of which are seamlessly connected to create one resilient recovery environment comprised of three components 1 Physical Workplace Recovery Centres 2 Virtualised desktop and softphone technology a 3 Multi-site connectivity Together the help to mitigate denial of access disruptions and disruptions that prevent people from journeying to work.

- #24 Main Point: There are three types of patterns – some of which come with the system and others, including a broad range of ISV applications, that are available via an easy online catalog. Speaker Notes: Patterns of expertise come in three types: Infrastructure patterns bridge the base system infrastructure elements like servers, storage, network, virtualization and management. Platform patterns bring into play the middleware in addition to the system infrastructure. Application patterns then bring in expertise at the business application level. Many patterns are built-in the system directly out of the box. Still more are available in a catalog for you to easily purchase and download.
