The Data Centre of the Future Will Grow Increasingly Diverse
Unified Service Management
Service Brokering
Leveraging new disruptive cloud technologies provides an opportunity to further
optimise cost, speed/ agility, and service quality to increase enterprise value.
Applications
Infrastructure
Management
Maximising benefits will involve spreading workloads across a
“Virtual Data Center” footprint, judiciously utilising dedicated
assets, private cloud, and public cloud capabilities.
Placing application workloads on the optimal infrastructure to maximise benefits, yet manage risks due to security, compliance, or availability.
Building out the mission critical private and public cloud infrastructure to broker the right mix of “controlled” infrastructure options in the VDC.
Ensuring that all VDC assets retain the security, manageability, serviceability, reliability, and recoverability attributes required by the enterprise.

• Cloud Computing transforms the economics of IT
enabling cost reduction and increased agility
• Mobile Computing and new end-points
(Wearables, Internet of Things) expand the edge
of the enterprise
• Social Computing enables connection to a new
generation and improves collaboration
• Big Data enables opportunities for real-time
decision making and competitive advantage
• Cybersecurity models must adapt to protect
sensitive data wherever it resides
Creating New Forms of Business Value …
The Business Impact of the Disruptive Trends Enterprise CIOs are facing the most disruptive period in the history of Information Technology
Technology Shifts…
Infrastructural shift to Cloud Computing
Shift to mobility as the “new desktop”
Collaborative shift to social computing
Informational shift to unstructured data and real
time analytics
The Cyber security perimeter is no longer defendable

Fabric Architecture
• Just what is the fabric? The Fabric consists of multiple nodes with granular partitioning enabled by s-Par® , woven together with a high speed secure interconnect.
• Each partition or partition complex hosts an operating system instance supporting customer applications.
• The Fabric Interconnect provides communication pathways between the partitions within and between nodes.
• Management and security are inherent to the fabric infrastructure.
• Stealth technology provides application Communities Of Interest (COIs).
Up to 6 “small” partitions per
platform

Unisys’s Software-Based Fabric Computing Infrastructure
Predictable system performance but inefficient
use of hardware
Provides hardware efficiencies and predictive performance
through secure isolation
Maximized hardware utilization but system
performance not guaranteed
Virtualized Server + Increase workload density =
fewer servers
+ Dynamic capacity allocation with shared resources
+ Good for many “non-critical” workloads
- Performance impacted by workload of other virtual machines.
- Typically oversubscribed

What Problem Does Forward! Solve? Applications that Don’t Play Well with Others
Applications on Dedicated
Server Technology
• Database Applications
• High I/O Solutions
• In-memory Databases (i.e. SAP HANA)
• High Performance Systems
• Secure and Isolated Applications
• UNIX Applications
© 2014 Unisys Corporation. All rights reserved. 14
What Problem Does Forward! Solve? Value Proposition
Reduce the complexity of infrastructure
• Improve infrastructure utilization as propriety Unix apps
can be moved Linux. E.G SAP, PeopleSoft, Oracle
Financial and home grown Apps.
• Reducing costs of managing firewalls
• Reduce network traffic, improved security, drastically
reduce latency and improve performance
• Limit firewalls to the edges
• Improve datacentre network 4 times faster as any
network operating today
• Each operating instance does not need cable to a switch
• Reduce the number of separate networks and subnets
© 2014 Unisys Corporation. All rights reserved. 15
What Problem Does Forward! Solve? Value Proposition
Improve Operating Budget and Cash flow, while improving services
• Waterfall out equipment seamlessly as CAPEX is available
• Reduction in switching costs for data and communication
Infrastructure
• Reduced costs through migration of Propriety Unix apps to Linux.
Such as SAP, PeopleSoft, Oracle Financial and home grown
Apps.
• In a future Forward! release - purchase storage incrementally with
servers and NEVER pay a big CAPEX to achieve this.
• Use common infrastructure for all work by simply deploying in a
manner the business requires.
© 2014 Unisys Corporation. All rights reserved. 16
What Problem Does Forward! Solve? Value Proposition
Improve Deployment Strategy & Agility
• Move Applications to the cloud permanently/temporarily
• Consolidate departments IT use & know exactly what
resources are allocated restricting views to their own services
• Set secure test/development that won’t impact production and
tear it down no infrastructure cost.
• Run existing virtualized environment and still take advantage of
the Fabric Life Style
• In addition provide flexible container sizes to safely allow
applications to expand and contract with workload.

What Problem Does Forward! Solve? Value Proposition
Introduce New Services
• Big Data extremely suited
• GreenPlum
• Hadoop Package
• SAP Hana
• Discrete x86 Appliances can share the infrastructure, avoid
expense of Proprietary Unix
