• Scalability &
Efficiency
The burden of “keeping the lights on” uses 77% of IT resources
IDC studies show23%
of your IT budget is
left to support business innovation
Fragmented Infrastructure
Datacenters have lost the ability to be nimble, as the result of the number of previous IT initiatives.
Explosion of Data
The above phenomena has been exacerbated by data explosion of today.
The Cloud
An additional complication is the “location” challenge – the cloud is only one of the solution options.
Scarcity of IT Resources
Oracle databases and AIX are complicated and tedious to support.
Time To Value
All of the above can lead to an excessive time required to design and provision hardware.
Tactically Focused IT
Plagued by database performance, system, and network monitoring issues.
Worldwide Integrated Systems 2014-2017 Forecast
• Five year CAGR of 32.8% to 14.3B by 2017 – up from 5.4B in 2013
• 14.6% of infrastructure (server, storage, net) will be sold as an Integrated System
• 22.1% of storage / 11.6% of server / 8.3% of network all by 2017

The Situation:
• Running Oracle on Unix Servers. • New Server Project with
Accelerated Deadline.
• IT Estimates 6-month Schedule to Provision & Bring Required Environment Online.
• Walgreens Forced to Look for faster, easier solution.
The Outcome:
• Selected an appliance
to meet projected timeline.
• Fast & successful launch frees up IT team for other projects.
• Ease of setup and ownership leads to further investment. • Walgreens company now owns
over 100 appliances.
While current available appliances do reduce deployment
times, these tools lack in other areas:
Most importantly, for faster deployment on these appliances, customers
must sacrifice performance.
• Expensive
• Require Additional Hardware
(i.e. Real Application Clusters (RAC) • Onsite Setup Still Necessary
• Inefficient Use of Rack Space • Poor Reliability
• Migration to a New Hardware Platform
• Inability to Easily Scale to the Enterprise Environment
“Exa” High Performance = Not What Customers Need Instead, Markets Demand Rapid Deployment Capabilities Of 10K Oracle Engineered Systems Sold, Aprox. 8.5K = ODA
Walgreens Buys ODA for Speed of deployment & Shadow IT Implications
Vendita sees opportunity for a perfect marriage of rapid
deployment AND high
performance, achievable with…

• P8 per-core performance continues to dominate over Intel. • Over the past 3 server generations POWER® has increased per
core throughput by 63% & single-thread performance by 47%. Intel x86 has decreased in both.
• Lower SW licensing costs for SW running on P8, even considering POWER®’s higher core factor multiplier of 1.0
• Analysis of hardware cost & the cost of licensing 15 & 24 cores of P8 on an s824, without RAC is demonstrated on the chart.

• Over-prescribed as a necessary “one-size-fits all” solution. • No clear deployment guidelines.
• Touted as universal, but really only <20% acceptance
among Oracle users.
• The horizontal scaling benefit is complex & rarely utilized. • Vertical expansion requires purchasing
additional/new hardware.
• Hardware configurations required are expensive. • There are too many single points of failure.
• Network configurations are complex.
• Not designed to work with Oracle’s Disaster Recovery &
Backup tools.
A Few Drawbacks of RAC Include:
