Forward looking statements
Flash Memory Summit 2014Santa Clara, CA 1
During our meeting today we may make forward-looking statements.
Any statement that refers to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances is a forward-looking statement, including those relating to market position, market growth, product sales, industry trends, supply chain, future memory technology, production capacity, production costs, technology transitions and future products. This presentation contains information from third parties, which reflect their projections as of the date of issuance.
Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements due to factors detailed under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the documents we file from time to time with the SEC, including our annual and quarterly reports.
We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.

In 2020: 30B interconnected things, effecting every IT vendor*
*IDC 3rd Platform & Predictions report, Gartner Nexus Predictions
Data creation & In Motion
50% of IT Spend & 100% of IT growth driven by* ..Mobile, Social, Cloud, Big Data /Analytics
Data creation & At Rest
154 Exabyte's by 2016
Traditional Technologies Simply Fail!
Flash Memory Summit 2014Santa Clara, CA 5
HDD direction not addressing the problem
Larger disks, longer the rebuild time
Cloud drives, spin-down – poor performance
High redundancy still required
HDD challenges
Must Design for Failure & Inefficiencies
Forces massive redundancy in
operations
Creates more copies of data than
needed
Slows response times
It’s Time to Shift to a New Platform that Accelerates Innovation
The Hybrid
Petabyte Capacity Flash is Inevitable

Market Drivers–All Flash Arrays
Challenges
• Affordability & Cost of Ops
• Reliability
• Complexity creep
• Efficiency
• Quality of Service
• Works at Scale
Capacity & Performance
HDD = Gasoline, FLASH = Battery, Storage System = Car
ExaScale Requires..

Performance On-Demand
Scale-out Capacity + High Density
EfficiencyLow operating Cost
(low power, low cooling)
Simplicity (Self-serve simple administration)

Large containers for long periods with on-demand rapid access
Mixed Media container, Active-archiving, Backup, Locality of data
Content Repository
Hadoop, NoSQL
Massive Read Intensive operations
Time-to-Value & Time-to-Insight
Big Data Analytics
High read intensive access from billions of edge devices
Hi-def video driving even greater demand for Capacity + Performance
Media Streaming
Building Solutions for Massive DataSoftware-Defined Storage & Open Source
• Multi-protocol access to a common storage substrate
• Block, Object and File interfaces
• Configurable Data Protection level• Local synchronous replication• Remove asynchronous replication• Erasure Coding• Natively understands physical failure
domains
• No single point of failure
• Supports heterogeneous HW nodes
Flash Memory Summit 2014Santa Clara, CA 10
• By 2017 30% of all storage will be under openstack & 70% of all storage deployed will be on standard x86 hardware*
• openstack can be the API for the Data Center operating system
• Vibrant community of contributors, supporters, consultants, add-ons, …
• Wide-spread adoption, and at very large scale (10,000+ nodes)
• Expanding beyond service providers into enterprises
* Gartner,
Perspective for Consideration
Cloud & Hyperscale Applications driving unprecedented data growth in both Structured and Unstructured data, demands a new approach to storage -- Everything as a service with a service level objective
1) Cost-optimize Capacity, Reliability and Performance • Favor scale-out over scale-up techniques • Simple, regular infrastructure leverages volume purchasing,
2) Must consider Real-World TCO not just $/GB - The Math is Compelling
3) Open-Source Software often has the highest rate of innovation, ride-it & contribute.
It is Your Right & Your Applications Right to have unprecedented QoS @Scale
