But There are Challenges in Your Network

Network topology is closely tied to server I/O provisioning and physical network layout

– Physical, manual server connection for each network inhibits scalability

Static and complex configurations limit flexibility & scalability– Networking is still statically tied not only to MAC addresses but also

physical ports (ACLs, VLANs, and QoS policies, etc.)

– Switch-side policies tedious to maintain in dynamic environments

– Hard to automate due to lack of standardized APIs across vendors

VLAN scalability is reaching its limits– Before server virtualization, VMs, and storage over IP networking, 4096

VLANs per L2 network seemed reasonable but no longer

Needs to scale more easily and be less complex to operate


Taking Network Admin to the Next PhaseSeparation of Administration of physical- vs. virtual resources

Cloud API


The Network Needs to be Virtualized

Define the network environment – based on virtual adapters and switches - in software

– Decouple from the underlying network hardware

Network hardware becomes a generalized pool of network bandwidth

Virtualized network creation and management via cloud APIs

– Along with VMs and storage allocation

Networking becomes Software Defined & Agile

Key Investment Area: Software Defined Networking

Oracle is investing to make your entire infrastructure…– Easier to deploy

– Easier to manage

– Easier to support

Software defined networking capabilities will increase operational agility and efficiency of the entire infrastructure

Key investments:– Acquisition of Xsigo Systems: Xsigo Data Center Fabric

– Soon: Planned integration of Open vSwitch in up-coming Oracle VM

Beyond Server Virtualization to Software Defined Infrastructure


Oracle Xsigo Product Portfolio Xsigo Data Center Fabric for Network Virtualization Includes the Following Components Fabric Directors

• Dynamically connect servers to all cloud resources instead of manually connecting servers to multiple network and storage devices resulting in fewer switches, cards and cables

• High performance, low latency connectivity • Over 100Gbps connectivity to each server• Scalable with up to 15 I/O modules per chassis

Fabric Accelerator• Fabric Accelerator dynamically connects VMs and servers to networks,

storage and other VMs through software-defined links between resources

Fabric Manager• Fabric Manager interface allows the creation, monitoring and

management of network and storage connections across all servers from a single management point

Oracle Virtualization: Enterprise Management for the Enterprise Cloud –

Sudip Datta


Enterprise Manager supports cloud based on Oracle VM for x86 or SPARC Enterprise Manager automates key operations (provisioning, scale up) via the

underlying Oracle VM Manager– Easier for customers to adopt, scale up and diagnose

Enterprise Manager creates additional value on top of native Oracle VM Manager based operations

– Assembly Provisioning

– Policy based capacity on demand

– Metering and Chargeback

– Incident and Configuration Management ….

The new architecture enables faster support for new versions– Oracle VM 3.1.1 was supported within a week of release

Several customer implementations active or in progress

Enterprise Manager support for Oracle VM: Highlights

2. Build, Test & Deploy Appson the Cloud• Packaging apps as assemblies• Testing applications• Self-service provisioning

3. Manage & Monitor the Cloud• Auto-scaling• Full stack management• End-user, business-

level, app monitoring

4. Meter, Charge, Optimize• Metering resource utilization• Chargeback/Showback• Optimize performance,

capacity, QoS
