Efficient Cloud Computing Through Scalable Networking Solutions
September, 2009 Cloud Computing is IT as a Service
. On demand Compute, storage and applications . Delivered and consumed in real-time over the network . Pay-per-use
© 2009 MELLANOX TECHNOLOGIES 2 IT Centers Spending and Constraints
Data center growth 30M servers currently installed, 4x expected growth in the next 10 years 10x increase in digital records retention and online transactions
Operating and management cost $8 for maintenance for every $1 spend on new infrastructure
Power and cooling costs have doubled since 2000 50¢ for power/cooling for every $1 spend on server hardware
Real-estate restrictions >$1000 per sq ft for construction costs
Server utilization Over 50% of CPU time is wasted on non-application activities
