Two fundamental types of application workloads
Expect reliability
Back-up everything
HA, Fault tolerance
Admin control recovery
SAP, Oracle, AutoCAD, Exchange
Design for failure
Ephemeral resources
Multi-site redundancy
Self-service recovery
Big Data, HPC, Social, Gaming
Think Server Virtualization Think Amazon Web Services
