Customer Situation
• Software applications are central to business
Wasn’t true decades ago except in a few industries
Now revenue and reputation, not just back-office bean counting,
are “on the line”—because businesses are online
Downtime is more expensive now than ever
• Legacy disaster recovery approaches don’t meet current and
anticipated requirements
Legacy architectures cannot assure business continuity
“Recovery” is what happens after a disaster has already
damaged the business
• The impact of downtime on businesses has risen faster than
DR/BC effectiveness

The ZeroNines Architecture
The Synchronizer restores
applications that have gone
down, by processing
transactions they missed
while offline (as recorded by
the Journal).
The Guaranteed Message
Service ensures that all
messages are received in the
proper sequence between
nodes and switches.
The Journal captures and
logs all transactions and
serves as a source for audit
and recovery purposes.
![Page 47: Founder and CEO [email protected]](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020703/61fb3f2e2e268c58cd5be6f9/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
ZeroNines in Action…
Here’s What Happens:
1. Server calls are originated by
networked clients: computers, email,
PDAs, phones, business software,
databases, etc.
2. Each transaction passes through
the ZeroNines Smart Switch Nodes,
which route it simultaneously to all
virtual servers in a one-to-many
(1:m) session.
3. Processing and storage take place
equally in all servers. All servers and
their apps are hot, and all are active.
There are no primary or secondary
servers.
4. All transactions and data exchanges
are recorded, verified, and subjected to
security measures.
5. Each virtual server sends its
responses back through the Smart
Switch Nodes.
6. The Smart Switch Nodes
cooperatively eliminate duplicate
responses and return a single response
to the client that originated it.

Design Principles
1:m transactions
Nodes (servers) process each transaction request completely, independently, simultaneously and return the result to the switch (requestor).
Duplicate replies are filtered on the switch so a single result is returned to the requesting application.
Journaling feature tracks and records every transaction for audit, security, and automatic server rebuild.
Server hierarchy is eliminated
No primary vs. secondary—not even first-among-equals. All servers are hot, all apps are active.
Eliminates single points of failure
No failover. Ever. Failover has been “designed out.”
Always Available architecture is application, OS, and platform agnostic, accommodating your
existing equipment and vendor-specific products and services.
54
Confidential – Not for Distribution. ©ZeroNines Technology, Inc. – Contact: [email protected] – Visit: www.ZeroNines.com
Diverse OS, applications, hardware, and product sets are accommodated
Agnostic regarding applications, OS, hardware, and platform
Integrates seamlessly with existing infrastructure and systems despite differing speeds, capacities, networks, applications, OS, hardware, vendors, etc.
Server sites are geographically diverse
Distance
Federal Working Paper suggests hundreds of miles
AlwaysAvailable™ supports thousands of miles
Distinct utilities & transportation
Logical resources
Anti-virus? Staff procedures?

Cloud Computing Observations
and the
Value of CloudNines™
![Page 60: Founder and CEO [email protected]](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020703/61fb3f2e2e268c58cd5be6f9/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Cloud computing ≈ utility computing on the Internet (or intranet)
• Processing and storage as a service
– “Computing plant” physically distant from users
• Aggregates demand from wide geographic area
• Enabled by commercially ubiquitous broadband networking
• Relatively inexpensive real estate and electricity
• Elasticity in resource utilization and pricing
– No premium for scale-up or discount for scale-down
• 1,000 servers x 1 hour = 1,000 hours x 1 server
– Apparently-infinite resource expansion for all but largest users
• Utility-like pricing & reliability requirements
– Security is a key issue still being addressed
– So is reliability, measured as uptime % (“availability”)
• ZeroNines enables utility-like application availability
– Unlimited-distance Transaction MultiSynch™ compliments intra-center elasticity of
cloud providers, both public and private

Key technology: digital networking
• Broadband now
commercially ubiquitous
• Price:performance up 2.7x
in 5 years
• CPU improvement is main
enabler of virtualization on
low-end hardware
![Page 62: Founder and CEO [email protected]](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020703/61fb3f2e2e268c58cd5be6f9/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Key technology: virtualization, especially for server consolidation
• Business case irresistible in
F100 in recent years
– when unadjusted for changes
in catastrophic risk
• Asset consistency drives
opex savings today
– Volume discounts are
overwhelming at cloud utility
scale
• Electricity rates drive long-
term expense advantages

Long-term, Cloud utilities offer more experience less expensively than all
but the best and busiest IT organizations
• Key technologies already available
• Providers with competitive pricing get first chance at experience,
especially in a budget-bruised financial-crisis world
– Cloud providers command purchase discounts of immense scale
• Asset consistency anchors discounts of 80% vs. medium-size data centers—a
big advantage now
– Cloud providers can locate “anywhere” that electricity and land are cheap and
broadband is available—an even bigger advantage later
• ZeroNines’ unlimited-distance feature is a powerful enabler for private and
public cloud providers
• Experience accrues to IT teams with the most challenges per year
– Teams at even modest –size hosting providers get more experience each year
than most medium and small businesses
• Specialization and quality of scope
• Utility transition will require decades, but the writing is on the wall

Z9: cloud providers will provide superior uptime minutes/$, particularly of
“commodity” apps, compared to all but the best and busiest IT shops
• Long-term, public cloud providers outperform most U.S. business IT functions in “uptime minutes / $”
• Amazon’s SLA already > 80% of SMB’s
• Amazon’s cloud computing SLA (for example) : 99.5% availability
• Good; not enough for AlwaysAvailable™ customers
• US Census: 80% of U.S. businesses < 500 headcount
• Z9: Their IT resources are disproportionately lower, so their uptime is disproportionately lower than in the IDC survey
• IDC Survey: 99% availability in firms averaging 3,298 headcount

But 99.5% isn’t adequate for many applications. Downtime cost is easy to
underestimate, because it hits revenue (1x) and reputation (12x).

Server consolidation increases catastrophic risk exponentially.
![Page 68: Founder and CEO [email protected]](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020703/61fb3f2e2e268c58cd5be6f9/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Server hardware availability improvements can’t keep up with that
exponential growth in catastrophic risk, so better architecture is needed.
![Page 69: Founder and CEO [email protected]](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020703/61fb3f2e2e268c58cd5be6f9/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
“Failover” architecture is failure waiting to happen. Diligence can’t fix it.
