Skill Set Dispossession
Required skill set transfer, from mainframe skill sets Very expensive process Took a decade to complete
Early 1990’s
MVS, VM, VSE,VAX/VMS
Unix/RISC

Proposed Dispossession
Compelling low-cost x86 architecture Move to a Windows Server platform Repeat of expensive skill set transformation
Late 1990’s
Unix/RISC Windows Server

Proposed Retention
Take advantage of low-cost x86 platform Retain skill set investment Leverage existing skill-set to lower cost deployment
Early 2000’s

Rapid Rate Catalysts
True enterprise-class support No skill set dispossession Deployment on low-cost commodity infrastructure Higher consolidation vs. Unix/RISC fragmentation True choice in supplier of the O/S and hardware A complete ecosystem around Linux

Problems with IT
Islands of computation– Configured for peak loads– Limited scalability– Availability < 99.x% – Fragmented security
Escalating costs Affects all businesses Decentralized management

GRID
The True Linux Opportunity
© 2004 Oracle Corporation
New Opportunity:Standard Building Blocks
Old Question: What size server does this new application need and what is the best server and O/S combination?
New Question: How many standard building blocks does this new application need?
2 Processor 4 Processor 4 Node Cluster

The True Linux Opportunity
Change the entire deployment model Identification of standards consolidation as a
true cost inhibitor Driving the commoditization of the hardware
platform Delivering a lower operational cost to our
customers
© 2004 Oracle Corporation
Unique Convergence
Low-cost, high performing processors from Intel and AMD
Maturing and development investment in Linux
Clustering product offerings from Oracle Global, enterprise-class support from Oracle New deployment model with opportunity to
provide leadership

Oracle’s Leadership
Oracle Real Application Clusters– Unique clustering technology allowing any
application to scale across a clustered architecture
Linux development and support model– Unique code-level support across the entire
software stack – apps, database and O/S 10g and enterprise grid with grid control
– Automatic provisioning and deployment of compute resources to a specific task
