4. A Combat Support Agency 4 Processing & Storage as a Service Concept Acquire capacity as a service provided by vendor partners Pay much like a homeowner pays for utilities, e.g., by CPU-hours or megabytes consumed 439 total orders completed, with a $31.5M annualized value Average delivery timeline of 11 days –14 days for mainframe; 10 for server –113 orders took less than 5 days –208 orders took between 5 – 14 days Processor Orders to date Storage Orders to date 157 Total Orders Completed $9.6M Annualized Value Average delivery timeline of 14 Days – 7 Days for Disk – 11 Days for Network Ports – 24 Days for Tape Slot Capacity Speed, Agility, Utility Pricing, Reduced Overhead & Technology Currency

5. A Combat Support Agency 5 Virtualization Why? Many benefits… –Consolidation – Reduces footprint –Deployment – Eases provisioning of new workloads –Agility – Increases support for changing workload demands and simple failover situations –Protection - Lowers barriers to disaster recovery –Savings – Fewer machines means fewer administrators, less power, floor space, and cooling –Utilization - Enables multiple systems to run on high-performance hardware –Price – Reduces the cost of service delivery and lowers the total cost of ownership Current utilization is 15% - 20%, climbs to > 60% through virtualization Server virtualization standard environments –Windows/Linux – VMware –Solaris 10 Containers –HP-UX virtual server environment

7. A Combat Support Agency 7 The Cloud Whats new? A style of computing where massively scalable (and elastic) IT-related capabilities are provided as a service to external customers using Internet technologies. Acquisition Model: Based on purchasing of services Source: Gartner Business Model: Based on pay for use Access Model: Over the Internet to ANY device Technical Model: Scalable, elastic, dynamic, multi- tenant, & sharable Computing As A Service

10. A Combat Support Agency 10 RACE Drivers…Why Do It Support faster application development/deployment –Reduce hardware provisioning from months to hours –Provide standard platforms to encourage standardization –Developing under security guidelines reduces implementation delays to retrofit security Reduce development and operating cost –Self-service model reduces costs –Standardization reduces support costs –Centralizing resources in the cloud Improve overall security posture –No servers under desks –Secure facilities –Uniform application of security guidelines

11. A Combat Support Agency 11 RACE – The Solution Reduced Cost Pay only for what you need Month-to-month service No annual maintenance fees Increased Speed 24 hour provisioning Online self service Credit card acquisition Reduced Risk No capital $ needed DECC Infrastructure Develop under DoD IA standards Increased Scalability Increase capacity ~ 24 hours Turn On / Turn Off monthly Capacity on demand Computing As A Service
