First topic - what the hell is cloud?
This video is disturbing
Cloud is a mystery?
How many "aaS" are there?
The "cloud" is the "matrix" is the "cloud"
Your mind is a dumb terminal
85 countries represented
7th vmworld
2004 - 1400 guests
12500 guests in 2009
2010 - goal is 14K, attendance is 17021!
Compellent is platinum sponsor
Vmworld is running on n.america hybrid cloud
100K vms deployed, released during vmworld 2010
VMUG gets some props!
3 stage journey of virtualization
1. IT production virtualization (benefit is cost savings)
2. Business production (achieve reliability with tier 1 apps - oracle, exchange, sharepoint)
3. IT agility (lends itself to business agility) - IT as a service, via cloud both public and private.
Most customers are stage 2.
Interop - standards based model is key
OVF is now an ANSI standard for portable VMs
vCloud API standard is gaining momentum (distributed mgmt taskforce)
IT as a service = optimizing it production for business consumption
Optimization is key
Optimizing business consumption of IT services is where Vmware is focused right now.
PM - has dropped the white shirts for the more mainstream blue oxford
Sleeves still rolled up
This is a decade-long journey
In 2009, apps deployed on virtualized infrastructure passed number of apps deployed on physical infrastructure (IDC)
2010 - 10 million virtual machines deployed
28% growth of number of deployed VMs per year
190K customers,
50K VCPs
25K partners
"Then New Infrastructure"
MS powerpoint with smartart 2007 being used as part of the vmworld keynote
Security is enhanced in virtual infrastructure
Integrated security model that addresses logical boundaries and not physical boundarries
For every dollar spent on hardware, 6 to 8 spent on ops
Virtual data center (collection of apps and services that share common set of policies)
The new 4 elements
Compute
Storage
Network
Security
We now have a choice in how infrastructure is purchased (and blending is possible).
It is important to be able to "get out" of the cloud
Secure hybrid cloud will happen with or without vmware
Application architecture has to change/evolve along with the infrastructure on which it runs
Real Time
Scalable
Agility
And we've arrived at the springsource message
