Editor's Notes
- #6 The answer is that we differentiate our solutions along two business-critical dimensions:Unparalleled performance to the end user: through our enterprise IP, TCP acceleration and CDN services, we ensure that your online applications and websites deliver the best possible end-user experience. Complete IT platform flexibility: with IT deployment platform options ranging from colocation and managed hosting to private and public cloud services, we give enterprises the flexibility to meet all their distinctive IT needs.
- #8 VMware is the fastest growing software company that continues to grow and lead the market based on a compelling value proposition to a broad set of IT customers, from small to large global enterprises. The pioneer in x86 virtualization, VMware continues to redefine the scope of virtualization for the new era of Cloud Computing.
- #9 In today’s marketplace, businesses face economic and market changes that often prove difficult if not impossible to forecast. This leaves companies vulnerable to swings in demand and either under-investment or over-investment in IT. Underestimating demand can lead to missed opportunities, or even outages and other major disruptions to your business. Overestimating demand, on the other hand, can result in write-offs for unused capacity and facilities.As you learn more about the application demand pattern, you can rapidly make economical decisions such as moving applications out to a public cloud or taking them back in-house. With cloud computing, you pay only for the IT resources you useCustomer quotes2x DC for the future 2 yr project – over investQuote “With cloud computing, if you underestimate, you can borrow from the cloud; if you overestimate, you can give back to the cloud—not just in aggregate across the company but also in specific areas. You could be correct in sales and trading, but wrong in finance, but either way, you‘re covered.”
- #11 We know cloud computing adoption is maturing. Often, cost reduction is talked about as the benefit for cloud computing but to put that in context, according to the IDG survey for VMware and most industry experts, the benefits for business agility are far greater.The top driver for cloud computing is Business Agility at 75%. Reducing IT investment is secondary at 56%.
- #14 The characteristics of enterprise hybrid cloud emerge:business agility for quick procurement and consumption of cloud resources, high performance by eliminating “noisy neighbor” problem, [click]multi-tier security that meets enterprise security criteria,industry and corporate compliance audits and,[click]infrastructure compatibility that allows easy and no-rework application portability, unparalleled choice of payment models and service providers.
- #15 Key points:1) We have a comprehensive solution for private cloud2) We build on the same core platform (vSphere, vShield, vCloud Director) for our public cloud offerings3) We focus heavily on compatibility between the public and private, so that apps are portal, management is based on common interfaces4) We enable 3rd party partners to connect via the vCloud APIvCloud Powered services are built on the same architecture as your VMware virtualized infrastructure and/or private cloud deployment. They support application mobility and portability between private and public cloud environments.A key point is that you don’t have to have already deployed a private cloud internally (e.g. with vCloud Director) to make use of a vCloud Powered service. You can simply take a workload in the Open Virtualization Format (OVF) and deploy it to a service that’s vCloud powered.
- #16 Our enterprise cloud solutions include flexible private cloud and public cloud services to address your different use cases and requirements. Internap’s cloud services offer enterprises unmatched flexibility, with the ability to choose VMware hypervisors for enterprise-class features and reliability or open source hypervisors for superior cost profiles. This approach also allows customers to “future-proof” cloud investments, enabling the transition from one cloud platform to another as priorities and business needs shift over time.Available today, our private cloudsolution enables organizations to maintain the levels of control and security inherent in a dedicated platform. A VMware-based service, our private cloud provides a seamless next step for enterprises that are already using VMware internally for server consolidation.Our public cloud service will be generally available at the end of the third quarter. Built on the open source OpenStack platform and supporting both VMware and Xen hypervisors, Internap’s public cloud will provide the flexibility and performance inherent in our other solutions.Our cloud storage service provides unlimited storage capacity, on-demand access and utility billing.[The OpenStack™ open source platform was developed by an international community to promote interoperability and eliminate vendor “lock-in.”]
