- 8. #HybridCloudTour Feature Benefit Triple network architecture, isolating traffic and protecting back-end servers from public internet. Server Isolation from the Internet Potential for dedicated everything, can provide single tenant environment resulting in better security through isolation No Hypervisor exploits, No potential hackers from shared Infrastructure. Data chain-of-custody at disk level Transparency and auditability at all levels, down to being able to identify the serial # of the disk data is on. Immutable audit trail Only Government workloads run in SoftLayer Federal data centers Lessened threat vector from foreign nation rogue hackers Trusted Platform Module/Intel TXT provides “measured launch” and complete server attestation. No Rootkit / Lessened insider threat DOD level disk erasure Ensures data is destroyed during planned or unplanned events – data leaks Security Value Proposition
- 9. #HybridCloudTour Performance Value Proposition Feature Benefit Most bandwidth is free Predictable billing and lower costs Enterprise level 7x24 support is included No surprises. Virtual instances are not over-provisioned resulting in better performance and lower price Consistent performance at a consistent price Higher performance resulting in a lower price No need to over-provision to meet performance requirements as seen in competitor’s shared environments Competitive, granular, hourly and monthly pricing across all bare metal, dedicated, virtual, and shared options Can result in costs that are 50% below the competition Bandwidth free, private WAN and geographically distributed data centers offer site to site replication for secure disaster recovery and COOP No cost, High Bandwidth carrier grade Private Network

- 12. #HybridCloudTour Workload Flexibility Value Proposition Feature Benefit "Lift and Shift" vs. "Migrate" existing workloads to SoftLayer: SoftLayer support of open industry standards like OpenStack allow you to use your own hypervisor (VMWare, others) or deploy onto bare metal directly. Faster, less expensive migration and Hybrid Cloud Run databases like Oracle much less expensively without a hypervisor and without license issues Fewer CPUs/Lower TCO SoftLayer provides an easy-to-use customer portal and robust API for full remote-access of all product and service management options. The APIs provide powerful automation and are very straightforward to call with your existing open source and other tools already used to manage your environments Flexible, customizable platform to interface with existing tools for IaaS, PaaS, or SaaS
