• Storage represents almost 20% of IT infrastructure spend

• Storage consumption is forecasted to return to over 60% per year

49% of firms will increase spending on storage in 2010

• Labor makes up 60% of the cost of storage

Dell’s point of view: efficient storage

Network storage is key for the Efficient Enterprise

iSCSI / 10GbE is the enabler

Storage optimization will deliver measurable results

Tiered storage gives back up

to 50% of your costs

Intelligent data management will turn data into a strategic asset

Keep more data online while reducing costs

5

So what does a “typical” storage infrastructure look like?

15% of backups and 40% of restores fail

– 70% of backup costs are labor related

• Planned downtime for storage system can take weeks

Only 16% virtualization of workloads

Over 30% direct attached server storage

• FC SANs TCO is 3X iSCSI SANs

Only 3 weeks useful life for unstructured data left on Tier 1 storage

6

What optimized storage can look like with Dell

55% lower TCO with virtualized SAN

50% cost savings with tiered storage

75% faster storage deployments

55% reduced backup times

70% improved recovery times

76% savings on storage network costs by converging on 10GbE iSCSI SANs

• Improved restores with integrated application & VM level protection

We know we can do this for you because

Dell has already done it.

• Seamlessly moved from 12,000 to

82,000 Microsoft Exchange mailboxes using Dell’s iSCSI SAN

• Configured 36 arrays under 1 hour for each data center

• Achieved better utilization of compute & storage resources

Five storage solution areas ready for the efficiency sea change

Storage virtualization and consolidation

Application integration and optimization

Advanced data protection and recovery

Scale storage while maximizing availability, minimizing complexity through automation and keeping capital and operating costs low.

Size and scale storage infrastructure to meet performance, availability and protection requirements of mission-critical applications.

Create data copies that can be simply created, costeffectively stored and quickly recovered to guard against data loss and disaster.

Data tiering, archiving & compliance

Optimize data placement across storage tiers based on performance, retention and regulatory requirements.

Enabling the distributed enterprise

Enable secure access and comprehensive protection of data resources distributed across the enterprise.

We’ve helped many become more efficient

Storage virtualization and consolidation

Application integration and optimization

Advanced data protection and recovery

Data tiering, archiving & compliance

Enabling the distributed enterprise

Saves an estimated

US$29 million on new hardware purchases, reduced space, and power costs with consolidation ratios of up to 20:1

Reduced application deployment time from

45 to 4 days helping

Dell’s business units work better and accelerate product development cycles

Simplified disaster recovery processes through automation, and rigorous testing to shorten failover of some mission-critical systems to minutes

Dell’s EMS Enterprise

Archive™ and Rapid

Archive solutions provide control over retention and deletion policies, & eDiscovery without the risks of data loss

Enabled employees to share knowledge and work together on projects more productively with a centralized SharePoint infrastructure

Achieved a 20% reduction in power consumption and floor space savings by consolidating 25 racks into 9 through SAN consolidation and server virtualization

Delivered world class database performance, reduced deployment time by 30%, consolidated 21 applications and reduced hardware costs by 25%

Deployed recovery site serving multiple environments using IP based SAN replication saves $600,000 annually in co-location hosting fees

Data archiving built on

Virtual SAN & enterprise vault software saves

$200,000 annually in outsourced eDiscovery services

EqualLogic replication in

Intelligent data management

Transform data from a burden into a valuable strategic asset

Manage data growth

Keep more data accessible

What if you could help customers expand their performance and capacity simultaneously and nondisruptively over time?

What if you could help customers have all of their data readily available at a much lower cost profile than their primary storage platform?

Minimize risk

What if you could help customers reduce their dependence on tape backups?
