Today With AppZero
• Running an unsupported Operating • A migration path!
System:
• Running your app on newer Operating
• Solaris 2.6, 7, 8
Systems - Solaris 10
• Old OS not supported on new hardware
• Running on power efficient hardware
• Old hardware falling apart. Poor reliability
• 100% mobility
• Into a maintenance contract for hardware
resuscitation • Physical, Virtual, Datacenter
• Not being able to leverage any kind of • Able to consolidate

Approaches for creating a VAA:
Physical 1. Learn mode
2. Fresh Install on empty VAA
Data Center VAA
3. Whole HD capture
13. What type of application can I put on a VAA?
• It can be:
– Custom and proprietary applications
– Of the shelf applications.
VAA – A simple “hello world” type of application
– To a Java stack
application (s) – To multiple Oracle DBs
– To a complex Baan or SAP setup
appzero – you name it!
• What about apps with kernel drivers?
Do I have to change or
NO
recompile my app?

19. The AppZero Virtualization
The AppZero solution provides a virtual
environment in which:
§ An Appliance (VAA) contains all the elements required by the
application to run:
– Executables, libraries, services, scripts, configuration files, network identity, host identity.
.
§ A VAA is protected and isolated from the UOS and other VAAs.
§ A VAA sees a configurable and merged view of its own files and
the UOS files
§ The VAAs can be managed independently and run without
conflict.
§ An old app can be migrated and consolidated
