CALIENT Technologies at a Glance Headquarters in Santa Barbara, CA, U.S.A.
• Atiq Raza (Chairman and CEO) held former roles as CEO of RMI, President and COO of AMD, and CEO of NexGen• Dr. John Bowers (Co-Founder) is Director of the Institute for Energy Efficiency at University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB)
Optical Circuit Switching market leader. >$400M invested to develop & perfect core 3D MEMS optical technology 2013: Started shipping new S-Series Optical Circuit Switch in volume to one of the largest global cloud data centers
• The only Optical Circuit Switch shipping in high volume and tested to rigorous Telcordia GR63 & GR1073 requirements
Data Center applications focus on improving operational efficiency by increasing compute resource utilization High Growth: In 2015 CALIENT ships our entire 2012 volume every 2 weeks. Driven by Data Center shipments

We Improve Data Center Operational Efficiency Reduced OPEX and Improved Customer Satisfaction
• Automation of Fiber Infrastructure speeds new service provisioning, improves customer satisfaction and retention, supports creation of new on-demand services, improves reliability, eliminates truck-rolls, and lowers workforce cost.
Reduced CAPEX & Improved Energy Efficiency• Compute resources can be reallocated and shared at the optical layer, supporting
much improved % utilization of server and storage assets. These represent 85% of the DC electronics cost and almost 70% of the energy consumption.

Compute Resources = 85% of Electronics Cost & 68% of Energy
Problem: Compute Resources are typically less than 40% utilized
Massive CAPEX & Energy Waste

CALIENT Improves DC Compute UtilizationSupports Pooling and Sharing of Expensive Server Resources
Compute Resources are physically shared between PODs in response to Application/Workload demands
Data Centers use convenient POD-based architectures that simplify deployment and maintenance
However PODs restrict resource agility for large workloads and result in poor compute utilization – less than 40%
CALIENT Optical Circuit Switches support physical virtualization allowing compute resources to be shared between PODs for maximum efficiency
Economic Benefit of CALIENT OCS
Model assumes $2B in mega-scale data center spending A server utilization increase of less than 10% is
equivalent to saving the total CAPEX of the entire data center network
Savings is in the $100Ms for a Mega-scale Data Center

Further Benefits of Optical Network Automation Accelerate New Service revenue
• Provision in seconds instead of days• Create and reallocate capacity on demand• Enhance customer satisfaction and retention
Reduce Operational Expense• Reduce on-facility workforce and truck-rolls• Manage connections from a central offsite operations facility• Support automated entry and updating of facility electronic records
Improve Quality of Service • Minimize human-error scenarios• Accelerate fault detection and isolation during service degradations or outages
