  1. NetApp Manageability Software Family Sales Training Presentation

  2. Sales Training Content • Objectives • Why should you care? • Value proposition • Capabilities • Competition • Resources • Summary

  3. Manageability Software Objectives & Strategies • Objectives: • Deliver highest productivity and flexibility to IT workflows for data as well as storage management. • Establish industry recognition for manageability software. • Strategies: • Innovative and easy-to-use tools that solve major IT challenges. • Integrate with key partner (App. and SRM, Sys. Mgt.) solutions. • Participate in key standards.

  4. Why Should You Care? • For Prospective Opportunities:  • NetApp Manageability Software Family provides a substantial value over the competition, which leads to:  • A higher winning percentage • A faster sales cycle • Less need to discount. • For Existing Customers: • NetApp Manageability Software Family enables customers to realize major benefits, which leads to: • Higher retention - users build their processes around these tools so switching out NetApp is harder.

  5. Who to call on? & What to look for? • Target Audience: • IT Director Operations / Infrastructure and their teams (managers and admins) • Especially dedicated storage teams (buying center where there is one) • Customers with: • NetApp storage solutions • Productivity challenges in data centers • Need to improve application service levels • Large data centers and mixed storage • Opportunity: • Enables new deals. Make this a part of all your deals. • Uplifts deal size. This is money on the table. $10K to $150K and higher. • Win with industry’s best App. integration • Eg: Only vendor who can manage out of Oracle ASM • For deals such as Exchange with 50K to 400K seat. • New approach gives you an edge to overcome EMC FUD. (NetApp management of large number of systems) • (Help you make your quota)

  6. NetApp Manageability Software Focus: • To deliver the highest productivity and flexibility to IT operations Approach: • Deliver best in class data and storage management • Integrate with partner solutions • Actively support key standards

  7. IT Customer’s Manageability Challenges “I need to reduce IT costs and improve service levels to users” CIO “I need to improve efficiency, utilization and data availability” IT Manager “I need to enhance application service levels and reduce interdependencies with other admins” Apps Admin “I need to quickly provision storage without the need to learn storage skills” Server Admin “I need to reduce interruptions and be able to focus on asset utilization, performance and RPO & RTO” Storage Admin

  8. Traditional Approach – Ineffective in Solving Challenges Application Admin Server Admin Storage Admin Centralized Management Storage Services

  9. NetApp’s Approach - Dramatically Simplify IT Operations Integrated Data Management (IDM) significantly improves IT productivity & flexibility Application Based Manageability Integration & Automation Server Based Manageability Datasets & Policies Storage Manageability Virtualization, Snapshots, Clones, Remote Mirror, etc.

  10. Traditional Storage Mgt. - Focused on what? Manual mapping of data to storage? Recovering lost files? Acting as a help desk??? Too many drive letter mappings? Trouble shooting? 80% of time spent on tasks with 20% of Value Competitor’s Storage Manageability 20 % Of time spent on tasks with 80% of the value • Storage Consolidation • Data Migration • Storage Utilization DR Planning Data Protection Availability Management Load balancing Performance Optimization Storage Tiering Regulatory Compliance Data Archiving STORAGE OPTIMIZATION BUSINESS CONTINUITY PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT DATA LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT Spending more time on high-value activities

  13. Provisioning The Easy Way Traditional Way NetApp Way • Need More table space • Check for more space on the File System • Contact Sys admin • Create a new data file • Expand the table space App Admin • Need More table space • Check for more space on the server • Contact storage admin • Inform the server that new storage is available • Expand the volume group • Expand the file system • Contact App admin • Check for more space on the File System • Provision more space based on pre-set policies using a wizard Server Admin • Provision New RAID group • Provision new LUN(s) for application • Assign the LUN(s) to the application server HBA(s) • Adjust LUN security • Find available target for point-in-time • Find available target for remote copy • Match source / target pairs • Contact sys admin Storage Admin Total time in a year to provision 10 servers each week 17 hours 260 hours

  14. Cloning for Test & Development Traditional Approach NetApp Approach DBA • Prepare target system volumes for the database files and database file system • Shutdown source database or put database into online backup mode • Copy Data file to the target system volumes • Repeat step 2 for each data file • Restart the source database • Copy the database file system to the target system • Configure the target system database server • Restart the new target database server • Roll forward redo logs if required • Select the source clone • Select target system • Few clicks to submission Server Admin Storage Admin Total time every year for cloning 10 production systems 9 hours 728 hours
