Oracle and Sun: Systems Overview White Paper

Software. Hardware. Complete.

John Fowler Executive Vice President, Systems Safe Harbor Statement

• Statements in this presentation relating to Oracle's future plans, expectations, intentions and prospects are "forward-looking statements" and are subject to material risks and uncertainties. Many factors could affect our current expectations and our actual results, and could cause actual results to differ materially. We presently consider the following to be among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations: (1) Economic, political and market conditions, including the recent global economic and financial crisis, could adversely affect our business, operating results or financial condition, including our revenue growth and profitability, through reductions in customer IT budgets and expenditures and through the general tightening of access to credit. (2) We may fail to achieve our financial forecasts due to such factors as delays or size reductions in transactions, fewer large transactions in a particular quarter, unanticipated fluctuations in currency exchange rates, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for software license updates and product support. (3) Our entrance into the hardware systems business may not be successful, and we may fail to achieve our financial forecasts with respect to this new business. (4) We have an active acquisition program and our acquisitions, including our acquisition of Sun Microsystems, may not be successful, may involve unanticipated costs or other integration issues or may disrupt our existing operations. (5) Our international sales and operations subject us to additional risks that can adversely affect our operating results, including risks relating to foreign currency gains and losses and risks relating to compliance with international and U.S. laws that apply to our international operations. (6) Intense competitive forces demand rapid technological advances and frequent new product introductions and could require us to reduce prices or cause us to lose customers. (7) We cannot assure market acceptance of new products or services or new versions of existing or acquired products or services. A detailed discussion of these factors and other risks that affect our business is contained in our SEC filings, including our most recent reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, particularly under the heading "Risk Factors." Copies of these filings are available online from the SEC or by contacting Oracle Corporation's Investor Relations Department at (650) 506-4073 or by clicking on SEC Filings on Oracle’s Investor Relations website at http://www.oracle.com/investor. All information set forth in this presentation is current as of April 26, 2010. Oracle undertakes no duty to update any statement in light of new information or future events.

Performance Consolidation “With the Sun SPARC Enterprise M9000 “We were looking for scalability, but we server, we enjoy unparalleled response also need to be very considerate of costs... times, the highest ratios of security, We want to keep the costs of goods down performance and flexibility, and costs for our clients so we can offer them a low that are nearly 50% less...” subscription price.” Carlos Lafitte, Jeremy Bauer, Advisor, IT Space Vice President of IT, (technology subsidiary of Grupo Villar Mir) Success Factors

Reliability Binary Compatibility “By going with the Sun M Series servers, “...the binary compatibility of the Sun we are able to meet our SLAs with faster, SPARC Enterprise servers running the better, and smaller servers. We were Solaris 10 Operating System helped able to increase our capacity and saved UniSIM time and money because actually reduce our footprint and costs.” the university's applications didn't need Bimal Doshi, to be recompiled.” Vice President of Operations, Gary Teo, Core Services Sr. Mgr of Educational Technology and Production, UniSIM

Oracle Database 11g R2 Delivers Oracle Database Acceleration • 2x OLTP throughput Sun M-Series Servers and Sun FlashFire • 2x faster transactional response times • Up to 6x less power and up to 8x less floor space

Scalability Efficiency “As a result of going to Sun, we improved our “As the world's largest mobile phone operator response time and we’re sitting at less than ten ranked by number of subscribers, we ran extensive percent system utilization with five times the testing on the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server business we had nine months ago. We have a running Oracle databases and it's been truly scalable server and storage platform that can provide amazing. We were able to double our performance air cover for our sales team, and reports we get from on the 4RU Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 server our enterprise customers say that there’s nothing compared to our existing 40RU, 64 CPU system and faster out there. ” also cut CPU utilization by over 50%. We have never seen so much mid-range computing power in such David Simon, Chairman, SearchForce, Inc. a small box while also dramatically reducing space and power consumption.” Mr. Wangxin, Director, China Mobile

One is just the base reliability of the operating system with storage, things like retrying I/Os. But on top of that there’s two key technologies that, frankly, you can’t get anywhere else… That’s MPXIO for multipath I/O and the other is ZFS.” Jason Williams, CTO

“We estimate that Solaris Containers have been able to give us the equivalent memory and processing power of ten virtual servers on every physical server. That’s resulted in an 80% reduction in space requirements and 65% savings in energy costs.” Brad Forrester, Systems Operations Manager

All rights reserved. 40 “In 11 years of managing storage arrays, I've never had so much detailed information about exactly what is going on inside the storage system aside from how many IOPS. I've worked with almost all of the big names on some very high-end systems (EMC Symmetrix & Clariion, Hitachi 9900, NetApp & StorageTek) and DTrace Analytics is several orders of magnitude better than any other storage management software or debugging tool I've ever worked with. Good job!” David Robillard UNIX team leader & Oracle DBA, Notarius

“We were trying to understand why performance isn’t where we need it to be. And with the analytics, it’s right there. It’s on the screen, point and click and you can dive into whatever level of detail you need. And I’ve just not seen anything else out there like that. So that’s been the number one win for us, the analytics.” Mark Niedzielski Infrastructure Manager, OurStage, Inc..

“It’s a delight to use. We spend less time reacting to the performance of the system and more time planning and supporting company strategy – overall administration time has fallen by 50%. From the team’s perspective, it means we can demonstrate the value of the investment to senior managers and prove our worth to the company.” Magnus Befwe Manager of IT Operations and Infrastructure,Elanders, AB
