Why Private Cloud?

4

Data Center Challenges

• Cost pressures• Slow Service Delivery• Lack of Flexibility• Lack of Transparency• Too Little Automation

5

Promise of Enterprise Private Cloud Computing

Lower Costs• Reduce upfront capital expense• Automate to reduce ongoing administration

costs

Increased Agility• Dynamic configuration of IT resources• Respond quickly to business demands• Self-service provisioning

Greater Control and Security• Data remains inside the firewall• Standard enterprise security

SUSE Cloud Strategy

7

Computing StrategyPublic Cloud:Broadly deploy SUSE Linux Enterprise Server through SUSE Cloud Service Provider Program

Private Cloud:Deliver cloud infrastructure solution powered by OpenStack

Hybrid Cloud:Tightly integrate SUSE Studio and SUSE Manager with SUSE Cloud to deliver a platform and tools that enable enterprise hybrid clouds

8

Why OpenStack?

• Customer demand for an OpenStack solution

• Has the greatest industry support and most vibrant community among open source cloud software projects

– Essex Release had contributions from 200 developers and 55 companies

• In the long-run the vibrancy of the community will lead to more rapid innovation than competing projects

• The formation of the OpenStack Foundation helps to ensure: – Long-term viability of the project – Project's development goals benefit industry and not one vendor

9

SUSE Participation in the OpenStack Project• Committed to joining the OpenStack Foundation as a

platinum member, which means we will offer: – Financial support – Engineering support – Legal support (helping to draft the bylaws)

• Early technical contributions focused on making OpenStack ready for production

– Hardening and securing the Essex release – Making deployment and ongoing maintenance easier – Improved Xen Hypervisor support

• Starting with the Folsom release, SUSE plans to contribute more features and functionality
