Presentation Notes

The network has been the last holdout of proprietary technology in the infrastructure, but market forces are changing that. Seeing the gains made in compute environments with industry standard server architectures and virtualization, organizations are demanding more from their networks. CUSTOMER PAIN POINTS How to manage increasing costs and complexity with legacy networks How to accelerate innovation and the offering of new services in a timely manner How to reduce on-going operational and support complexity with proprietary tools and applications Customers are looking for Programmability & automation - for innovation & agility Networking independent of HW, location & topology – for flexibility Open – for lower CAPEX Simplify IT – for lower OPEX Why change the networking status quo? Attribute Servers Networking Provisioning time Minutes Days / weeks Cost Cost-effective Expensive Open & Choice Yes Not really Management Easy /simple Complex / hard HW Abstraction Yes (e.g. VMware ESX) None / primitive

Dell and Nuage Networks scalable cloud solution An integrated network virtualization solution that:

• Delivers automated instantiation of network services making the data center network as dynamic and consumable as the compute infrastructure

• Separates and simplifies the definition of network service requirements and policies

• Scales to meet the demands of thousands of tenants with unique application requirements, distinct security policies and committed service levels

• Provides seamless connectivity across the data center network incorporating both virtualized and non-virtualized compute environments

• Compute set-up is automated

• VM available in minutes

• Network is complex, manual

• Configuration can take days/weeks

• Services like load-balancers, firewalls can be the most tedious, error-prone

So let’s take a closer look at the provisioning…. To be fair, each functional group can do it relatively quickly, but huge dysfunction across these groups Network manual: different vendors, CLI, etc. -> learn from server virt, stop config the HW and do it in soft

Presentation Notes

Network abstraction Orchestration talk to VSD not Net admin….. Design your network policies/templates & Nuage VSP translates this into network config independently of the Network HW underneath Same networking skills, same complexity to build these policies

50% Reduction in operational expense

10x Improvement in turn-up response time, Reduction in configuration errors

40% Increase in asset utilization & flexibility

Bottom Line for the CIO

“The overlay network market currently has three dominating vendors (Nuage Networks, Cisco &VMware) with a number of smaller tertiary vendors or startups…”

- Georg Fritsch

- Gartner clients can access report or enquire with Gartner representatives Nuage Networks does not own sharing or posting rights to this analysis. research note

Dell & Nuage momentum: The industry takes notice

“Dell has emerged as a top four player in the data center networking space measured by port shipments. It has also been the most-innovative and most-disruptive mainstream data center networking vendor in the market over the past 12 months.”

Gartner “Vendor Rating: Dell” April 2015

• Networks should follow at speed of cloud apps

• SDN = abstraction + automation • (& its principles really can drive more agility & less lock-in)

• Policy-driven auto-instantiation in lieu of device-by-device configuration

• (like mobile networks)

• Peering without boundaries, inclusive of branches • (like the internet & VPNs)

• Benefits must extend across all assets • (virtualized & bare metal, as many of your critical apps require)

Key takeaways

SUMMARY As cloud networks evolve, SDN policy-based automation will drive business agility by delivering applications and services on-demand with greater IT efficiency

Together Dell and Nuage Networks are helping companies realize agility and application awareness
