4. Workloads: Application growth in the cloud


As organizations progress in cloud maturity, the types of workloads they deploy in the cloud broaden
beyond the usual dev., test and customer facing applications
More than 50% of organizations that are cloud-focused are also running internal web apps, batch
processing and mobile apps in the cloud

8. The Ethernet enabled data center is the
“services bus”
Data Center Networking

35% penetration of Ethernet switching in the datacenter by 20163
Outsourcing to Increase

Internal data center spend and spending on companies' own data center
infrastructures will fall from 80% of spending to 65% of spending by 20161
Virtualization Dominates

By 2016, 71% of server workloads will be virtualized, up from 46% in 2011 1
Increasing Cloud Workloads


By 2016, nearly 2/3rds of all workloads will be processed in the cloud2
Over 20% of new enterprise workloads (including cloud) will end up in multi-tenant
data centers by 2015, up from 10-12% today1

12. The CoreSite Mesh- What is it?
 CoreSite initiative to build interconnection and network density
 Strategic accounts from four key ecosystems




Internet and Peering
Private Network WAN – MPLS, Ethernet and fiber
Mobility
Cloud and IT Services – Hybrid and multi-cloud architectures in the cloud
 Provides network diversity, vendor choice, and increased competition for
customers
The Mesh is the magnet that brings other
organizations into the community

13. The cloud marketplace
A Growing Opportunity

• Enterprise storage-as-a-service provider that creates
NAS and SANs in the cloud.
• Specializes in highly available, low latency toleration
workloads- digital asset management, Asynchronous
replication, etc.
• Coresite’s LA campus contains large ecosystem of
studios, production houses, CDNs and content providers.
• CS and Zadara work jointly to provide solutions.

19. Partner deployment Success
• XO is an integrated communications providers who
delivers voice, data and cloud solutions.
• XO looked for a neutral partner to offer their enterprise
cloud, cloud vault and cloud drive offerings, while
allowing client to take advantage of using XO’s WAN
offering for private connections.
• They view the Open Cloud exchange as an innovative
business model to reach customers of both network and
cloud.

20. Recommendations
•
All of you are erudite, IT/Cloud professionals so just 1 recommendation..
• Don’t build your network around your cloud,
build your clouds around your network.
