Sun's Open Source Strategies
Share
Disrupt locked market-places
Address growth markets
Drive volume
Open source changes the rules of game so fundamentally, and there is no one open source business model, but rather, many.
Firstly, and perhaps of most interest to shareholders, is the monetization of open source, or how are you making money if you're giving your software away for free?. Software is, in a sense, a loss leader. Customers are increasingly reluctant to pay for anything which has no associated unit cost for production. You can fight this and, if you are lucky and your customers really differentiate your offering over that of others (like in music), the problem you are left with is piracy. For the rest of the world, you are more likely to have customers who don't differentiate your offering so highly and will prefer something that's free.
Drive VolumeHowever, if you can establish a large user base on your core technology, they are most likely to buy their hardware and their support from you. How do you establish this base? By being relevant: by attracting a large community of developers and partner companies onto your technology, by seeking ubiquity on hardware and a large ecosystem of applications. That volume drives your value.
Growth MarketsSecond, as we've seen, open source is increasingly in demand from the key growth markets: government and the BRIC region, where the next wave of massive participation will come from.
ShareThird, we SHARE. Just as we want others to find uses for our core technology, so do we contribute to other, best of breed projects, giving our customers high quality standard solutions such as X.org, Mozila and GNOME.
Disrupt Proprietary Markets Lastly, open source has the power to unlock markets which have been stagnating for years. Freeing up these markets with standard solutions will only drive competition, innovation and growth, and Sun is proud to be associated with such projects, whether as a contributor, or as a sponsor.

Cloud Computing and Suns Vision
Everyone is Talking About Clouds
Database as a Service
Utility Computing
Virtualization
Application Hosting
Infrastructure as a Service
Grid Computing
Platform as a Service
Storage as a Service
Software as a Service
Key points:Cloud is a popular current buzzword. Start-ups have cloud terminology in their business plans. All the big players in IT have a cloud program. Pretty much anything that translates to paying less for today's infrastructure is being rolled up under the banner of cloud computing. But cloud means different things to different people. Details:There are two things driving the excitement around cloud computing:1) Controlling costs amplified by today's economy, there is a need to get much more efficient in building next-generation data centers2) An explosion in unstructured data not just what we put into Oracle or MySQL, but click data, behavior data, rich data, tag data. Everything from the terabyte of pictures that go onto Facebook every day to the clickstream data on a wireless network from people who are consuming content on their phones.Unstructured data is forcing us to look at new ways of managing and deriving value from the data.Transition: Cloud computing brings a new level of efficiency to delivering IT resources on demand; and in the process it opens up new business models and market opportunities.
Whats Driving Interest in Clouds
Lower CostsBusiness
AgilityWhat makes it so interesting today: businesses are looking
at Amazon and Google and Yahoo and they're asking themselves --
"why, when I'm looking at what the market pricing is for basic
compute and basic storage, are these web sites being able to
produce such phenomenal cost savings over what I'm able to achieve
in my enterprise?" For example, how much does it take to produce
one hour of computing today. You can get that number from Amazon -
it's about 10 cents per CPU hour, and it's about 15 cents to store
a gigabyte of data per month. Those prices within an IT
organization are maybe 5 to 10 times that. Which means that even
enterprises now are looking at cloud computing and asking what is
it that's going on in cloud computing that can apply to their own
businesses. The big thing is that it's lower in cost. It's also
allowing people to become much more agile in how they're using
computing today.

CentricFlexibilityCost savings are a result of increased
efficiencies, which has always been a feature of Web scale
computing. By getting larger in scale and leveraging technologies
like virtualization, you're able to achieve a much more efficient
use of computing resources. So rather than tying a single
application to a single server, using virtualization techniques
you're able to use multi-tenancy, multiple applications running on
the same server, and therefore you're driving down the cost of
computation. In the public cloud arena, you've also seen a change
in the business model, much more towards a pay-as-you-go model.
where IT really is being delivered as a service. Virtualization is
getting tied together with delivery of services over the internet.
And instead of having a very large capital investment, people are
able to pay just for the computing resources they actually need and
consume. That changes the equation between OPEX and CAPEX. So for
example, in the startup community, you're seeing that many startups
are going immediately to the cloud and aren't building their own
data centers. Another area of increased efficiency is an increased
level of automation, which makes for a much more developer-centric
model. Rather than needing to work through finance and IT for large
procurements, developers are now able to do self provisioning of
compute resources. So if they have an idea for an application they
want to spin up, they can now do that thru the web and thru the use
of APIs -- which leads to much faster deployments and a much
greater degree of flexibility. Now developers can understand how
their applications should perform and be able to express that thru
the code they write, on demand.

Resulting Benefit
You can map cloud features to benefits. Self provisioning means much faster time-to-market. No need to negotiate long-term contracts. You may not even need permission, all you need is a credit card to get started with a public cloud. Having built-in services means someone else already has figured out how to build a scalable storage system, so you don't have to do that work yourself. The elasticity means you're only using the resources you need when you need them, so you can start off small. If you have an application that grows to be very large, you only need to pay for those increased resources when they're being. It's all on demand. You don't need to build in anticipation of future growth. This really allows a more flexible business model behind the applications being deployed in the cloud today.

Changing IT Relationships
Cloud Feature
Resulting Benefit
Developers
Deployers
Why wont IT support this?Why cant I use the versions
I want?Why cant I get better
availability?How can I pay only for what
I need?How quickly can I get
more servers?
Why do we have so many versions of every package?Where can I cut
costs?How can I do finer grain
provisioning?Where do we enforce
security, regulation and
audit?
This changes the relationship of an IT department to its developers, and that's part of a long-term shift. Since we're providing developers with self-serve capabilities, the relationship between IT and development shifts. Cloud computing provides a way to deploy and access everything from single systems up to massive amounts of IT resources, on demand, in real time, at an affordable cost. It makes massive amounts of compute and storage capabilities available to anyone with a credit card. And since the best cloud strategies build on concepts and tools that developers already know, clouds also have the potential to redefine the relationship between IT and the developers and business units who depend on IT. Developers always want access to the next greatest thing. They want the latest rev of the application. They want to integrate it with the latest stack of middleware. They only want to pay for what they need. They want to very quickly be able to provision the right number of instances of what they want. And generally, they're confused bordering on angry with the IT deplartment for not being able to give that to them quickly.Deployers on the IT department side, every new variation costs them money, coarse-grained provisioning (a dedicated server per application instance) also is expensive, and they're bound by regulatory, security, audit control, access control issues. They can't just transfer everything to a public cloud or an unregulated environment. One of the major things that has changed this relationship is the idea of virtualization being able to package up an application as a machine image and to then hand off the machine image to someone for deployment. Where the machine image is self-contained -- It has the patches, middleware, application instances, and you can spin up as many instances as you need.Cloud computing is gaining traction because it has made life simpler, and has removed some of the tension in the dynamic between developers and deployers.

All Clouds Share Key Traits
One Service Fits AllVirtualized Physical ResourcesSelf ProvisioningElasticityPay per UseProgrammatic ControlClouds share some key traits. They're composed of very simple services. Virtualized basic compute resources such as storage, compute, networking. The cloud model makes it easier to consume these things dynamically and to automate the entire process. Self-provisioning, the self-service model, is an integral part of cloud computing, even if self-service only is for your internal customers. Elasticity has to do with precisely matching compute resources to the load on an application. Pay-per-use is the preferred model in the public space for cloud computing. And most importantly, the long term vision is that we're now exposing APIs that allow programs themselves to have access to these resources. So you can imagine an application, sensing its own environment and that it's being overloaded, the application itself reaching out to provision new resources to load-balance that application to spread it out over a larger number of virtual resources.
BUT
clouds
can also
be quite different
Layers
Public vs Private Clouds
Application Domains
Key points:While they share common elements, there are a variety of ways of looking at clouds.
[NOTE: This is a great starting point for a customer discussion. How do they see their enterprise or their business using clouds?]
Details:What are the different layers at which we might provide cloud services?
What are the business models under which clouds will be operated and used?
What are the different types of applications you want to put in to the cloud?
Transition:Let's look at each of these elements in more detail.

Cloud Computing Layers
Applications offered on-demand over
the network (salesforce.com)
Basic storage and compute capabilities offered as a service (Amazon web services)
Developer platform with built-in services (Google App Engine)
Infrastructure as a Service
Platform as a Service
Software as a Service
The simplest way to look at the various layers of cloud computing is through the following three categories. 1) Infrastructure as a Service or as some of the industry analysts are starting to refer to it, Hardware as a Service. Basic storage and compute, offered up on the network as something under programmatic provisioning and control. Amazon's EC2 and S3, Microsoft's Cloud Infrastructure Services, Rackspace's Mosso offering. Gives you the ability to provision a certain number of machine images, and a certain amount of storage, for a certain amount of time, and when you're done using them, you stop paying for them. There are very few constraints on what developers do at this layer.2) Platform as a Service more of a developer-targeted offering, a set of built-in services that provide a starting point for developers to deploy to. Google's App Engine, Microsoft's Azure. However, each one of these comes with a set of constraints. With Microsoft, you're writing in .Net. With App Engine, you're using Big Table and you're writing in Python. If you want to deploy C++ code on top of Oracle, you can't do it on App Engine. You may be able to build a machine image that uses those elements, and take it to an IaaS provider. But you're probably not going to do it at the platform layer.3) Software as a Service software, offered on the network, as a service. We've been talking about this in the industry for a long time. Applications on demand, like salesforce.com, or Google Docs online, where essentially what you're worrying about is the user interface and SLA.[NOTE: What's important here is to identify the layer of abstraction our customers want to get to. Is it to run anything in the cloud? To run a developer-specific set of services? Or to go consume an end point? An ISV will be most interested in how they become a SaaS provider. A customer in the cloud on-ramp space (load balancing, for example) may be interested in how they become a PaaS provider. And a lot of our enterprise customers, and SMBs are interested in simply consuming IaaS.]
Public vs. Private Clouds
Public
Private
Mixed
Pay as you go, multi-tenant applications and services
Cloud computing model run within a company's own datacenter
Mixed usage of public and private clouds according to application
In addition to the 3 different lsyers of clouds, there are 3 different business models. Public Cloud Think Amazon. You don't know who else is on the server, the disk or the network with you. It's a hotel you don't know who was in the room before you. You don't know who's next door to you. You have to live with it. Advantage tends to be lower cost. You don't have to worry about it. You don't see what's happening beneath the layer of abstraction provided. Targets developers, startups, media & SaaS companies needing to serve consumers & businesses. Startups + Social network application developers + Enterprises trying to experiment with disruptive ideas + Niche players. Run by third parties, many customers, apps may be mixed together. Potential for the highest scale and efficiency. The least guarantees. Private Cloud you own everything. Think of it as a data center you have built to a set of cloud standards.You're applying cloud computing principles to your own data center. Of interest to Enterprises and large organizations wanting to service their customers, shape costs and smooth demand. Can make more performance guarantees, but may leave efficiency on the table. Companies looking to shape cost structure, gain control over deployment practices as an option. You own the server, network and disk and decide who gets to run on it with you. You have full control. [NOTE: A lot of our enterprise customers today aren't willing to deal with the regulatory, security, latency, or data transit issues they perceive with public clouds. What they like is the IT agility, the deployment and developer advantages of running their own private cloud.] Hybrid Models you own some, you use some. A great example of this is SmugMug. They own the front-end. Account creation, billing, decoration, SLAs. Everything you see when you go to SmugMug.com. But when it comes to removing red eye, converting video, or storing images, that happens in a public cloud (Amazon EC2 and S3). Being able to use the cloud services means they aren't running an enormously large storage farm. But running their own data center allows them to have very fine-grained control over what the user experience is, and to maintain better control over things they believe must remain secure eg. user information, URLs for private galleries.Transition:Finally, in terms of differentiating clouds, we can look at which applications they are intended for.

Application Domains
Domains Drive Differences in Hardware and Software ArchitectureHPC
Medical
Intelligence
Finance
Analytics
Web
Another dimension is that there will be many clouds, provided by different service providers, to meet different business needs. We can think about this in terms of different application areas. Web: Wants the best throughput at the lowest costHPC and Analytics: Wants maximum performance. Fewer requirements around security and privacy. More around scale and elasticity.Regulated Applications: Medical and financial applications will come with a set of requirements security and privacy requirements HPPA. SEC requirements, etc.
This leads to a range of clouds that will exist in the marketplace and Sun is looking to be a player in all of these.
Adding It All Up
Many clouds catering to different needs
Suns Vision Since 1984
THE NETWORK
is the
Computer
Key points:Suddenly, everyone is talking about cloud computing. At Sun, we've been focused on Network Computing for over 20 years. Sun's vision is as true as it has ever been.If you don't have to know where things are on the network, and you have some trust in the people operating the components to meet your SLAs, then you can gain a much higher degree of flexibility and autonomy over how you're consuming those services by leveraging the cloud.Details:A revolution is sweeping the world fueled by Internet access. Cloud computing.In many ways, Cloud computing is a simply a metaphor for the Internet, the increasing movement of compute and data resources into the Web. But, there is a difference, cloud computing represents a new tipping point for the value of network computing. It delivers higher efficiency, massive scalability, and faster, easier software development. It's about new programming models, new IT infrastructure and the resulting enablement of new business models. Our vision 'The Network is the Computer' inspired us to build the open computing infrastructures for over 20 years. Cloud computing is the latest evolution.

Suns View
Many CloudsPublic and PrivateOpen and Compatible
There will be many clouds, both public and private. We want them to be open and compatible. One of the things driving cloud computing is that because of the wide availability of open source software and components, people can now rapidly assemble applications out of open source components and run them in the cloud. And of course, we want these clouds to be powered by Sun technology.
Suns Strategy
Develop the core technologies for
Sun's Open Cloud Platform Offer Services through Sun's public
cloud service the Sun CloudWork with service providers and
enterprises to build their own cloudsDevelop open standardsBuild
partnerships and communities
What is Sun's strategy in going after this area? One, developing core technologies for building both public and private clouds. Two, offering a public cloud for the developer community. So developers on Sun technology will be able to come in and develop their applications in the public arena. Three, working with SPs and enterprises to build their own clouds. We're a firm believer in open standards to win in this space. So we're looking to push our APIs and other technologies developed in the cloud into the open arena. Lastly, fostering an ecosystem of partners, developers and others, because cloud computing can be successful only if you can leverage maximum reuse of others technologies and components.

Introducing the Sun Cloud
So our initial focus is on Infrastructure as a Service - you'll see a very basic compute and storage cloud coming out from Sun later this year (CYQ2). Our first data center is in the US, with follow-on in data centers in multiple geos. It is focused on developers and startups.Next steps - working with partners, the ecosystem, to bring their technologies into that cloud. Offering cloud infrastructure as a product for service providers and enterprises. And expanding globally with partners.

Customer Benefit
Scalable, highly available storage without big hardware investments
The very first service that will be going out will be a storage service. This service will provide on-demand, API-driven, general purpose storage of information in the cloud. You'll be able to store and retrieve objects, using a REST API, but also with an Amazon S3-like interface, for compatibility purposes, which will allow you to store named objects. Similarly, Web DAV will be used as one of the API interfaces so that many Web DAV clients that are available today will be able to allow individuals to store and retrieve information from the cloud.
Compute Service
What It Is
On-demand, scalable computing infrastructure accessed via APIs or unique Virtual Datacenter (VDC) UI model
Features
On-demand provisioning of virtual machines of industry-standard operating systems including Linux, Windows and OpenSolaris

Creation of custom VMIs and access to pre-configured VMIs
in the cloud
Support for persistent and non-persistent virtual machines
Customer Benefit
Affordable access to highly scalable computing infrastructure
Always available
The compute service will be modeled on this very unique capability we have around the virtual data center. You'll be able to create a virtual data center, and within that virtual data center, you'll be able to import virtual machines, whether that be for Solaris, Linux or Windows. You'll be able to spin up virtual machines , virtual storage units and networking components, from which you'll be able to craft your own virtual data center within Sun's cloud. We think this approach will be very attractive to customers because it builds upon what Amazon has been doing with EC2 in providing the very base level configuration capabilities for individual instances, but at the same time adds this data center model around that, where a team now can work to develop system architectures. The other thing to think about in virtual data centers is that what we're emphasizing here is that the strength of the application is based on the system architecture as well as the code. So customers will be able to take, for example, one view of what a three tier architecture might look like as a design pattern, and import that as the basis for their application. We think this capability is an important differentiator for Sun.

In the future, what we expect to see is a series of other kinds of services and applications building up on top of those core components. Database services. Queuing and messaging services. Monitoring services. Identity services. All of these services will be rolling out at a rather fast clip over time, so that we'll have a very rich environment of services available for any developer that wants them.
Roadmap
First public cloud will rollout
starting this in Q2 2009
(see next slide)
Additional services will begin
