The
Competitors
- IBM
- SUN
- HP
- MicroSoft
- Dell
Looks sound from
business and finance
perspective
IBM
Has good balance of
services and products
Is undermining current
product set with Linux
play, risky...
A proprietary giant,
won’t fly long term 
5
Looks less than sound
from business and
finance perspective
Sun
Has a single product
line and is building a
second
Is confused how to
respond to Linux,
embrace I guess….
Likely target for takeover 
6
Looks sound from
business and finance
perspective
HP
Has large diverse
product and services
portfolio
Is embracing multi-OS
play with IPF
Is integrating into the
new HP, quite the
challenge 
7
Looks very sound from
business and finance
perspective
MicroSoft
Has large diverse
software product
portfolio
Has near monopoly in
primary markets, but is
struggling to become an
IBM or HP
Need to diversify out of
just software into
services.

Dell
No IP….
(maybe they
could buy Sun)

Computing
Trends
- Hardware
- OS Software
- Middleware and apps
10
Hardware trends
Proprietary CPUs will be replaced by commodity
devices- most likely IPF or derivatives of
Hardware vendors will becomes platform vendors that
differentiate themselves by integration of H/W and S/W
components into a platform- e.g App servers
Hardware will becomes less dependent on any single
OSOS agnostic and/or multi-OS
Specialized market slots will open up for optimized
solutions based on specialist hardware
Hardware will continue to becomes less expensive as
the IPF commoditizes servers
11
OS Software trends
Linux will continue to grow and improve it’s market
share at low end
Proprietary UNIX vendors will increase their value by
improving the integration and amount of built in
components
Microsoft will continue to move against Linux at the low
end and UNIX at the mid and high-end
Linux will replace Solaris as the the development
platform of choice
Software will get more complex and management and
deployment systems will continue to lag behind
undermining the improvements to software
12
Middleware and Apps trends
Middleware components e.g apps server, AAA servers
and Ldap servers will all be integrated into the OS
software.
H/W vendors will try and lock middleware and apps onto
their platform
Applications will start to move towards Linux as an
exploratory step toward acceptance into the enterprise
e.g SAP, Oracle and BEA
Application vendors will loose their sense of humour at
20 cents on the dollar for Linux products
Middleware and applications will continue to have UNIX
and not Linux as there primary focus
Microsoft will slowly consume any middleware and
applications that look like they have value

Interesting
Technology
- Partitioning
- Clustering
- Multi-OS
What is Partitioning
At the most
granular level, it is
the ability to divide
a single CPU and
it’s associated
resources
amongst various
tasks to guarantee
QOS levels
On a server basis
it is the ability to
support multiple
instances of the
operating system,
thus facilitating
isolation and
optimization of
operating
environment
At the
infrastructure level
it is the ability to
share and move
resources and
tasks to maximize
utilization and
hence ROI of
computing systems
Partitioning Concepts
There are four basic concepts of computer partitioning
that need to be understood and grasped to effectively
interpret the product offerings of the 4 main vendors.
The concepts are:
- Processor virtualization
- Process affinity
- Hard partitioning
- Software partitioning
16
Partitioning Definitions
Name
Description
• Processor virtualization
Is the complete virtualization of the execution
environment I.e. the execution environment
executes on “virtual CPU"
• Processor Affinity
Is the association of a physical CPU with the
execution environment I.e. the execution
environment executes on a really CPU.
• Hard partitions
Electrical isolation of groups of CPU and
associated components and execution
environment
• Soft partitions
Programmatic isolation of group of CPU and
associated component

Processor virtualization verses processor affinity
• Processor virtualization
Is the complete virtualization of the execution
environment I.e. the execution environment
executes on “virtual CPU environment
• Upside:
You can have many more virtual executin environment than
you have CPUs
• Down side:
You loose up to 25% of the power of the machine to the
partitioning virtualization system.
• Processor Affinity
Is the association of a physical CPUs with
the execution environment I.e. the execution
environment executes on a really CPU.
• Upside:
There is little or no penalty for the partition system.
• Down side:
You can only have as many partitions as you have
physical CPUs.

23
What is Clustering
Most common is
HA clustering.
Clustering to make
sure your
application is kept
running even if the
hosting system
fails, via switch
over
Least understood
is clustering for
scalability or
performance. The
nature of clustering
is such that in
theory it is possible
to add another
node and thus
capacity in minutes
This is most
important aspect of
clustering as it
reduces
management by
treating every node
the same. Cluster
management also
