3. In the beginning
―Hello everybody out there using minix —
I’m doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won’t be big and
professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones..‖
-Linus Torvalds
Free Unix!
―Starting this Thanksgiving I am going to write a complete Unix-compatible
software system called GNU (for Gnu's Not Unix), and give it away free(1)
to everyone who can use it. Contributions of time, money, programs and
equipment are greatly needed‖.
-Richard Stallman

17. Open Compute – The Who
Facebook Tier 1’s Financial
Synnex Tier 2’s Life Sciences
Emulex VAR’s Oil and Gas
Scale out Web
Anyone that would benefit from an open spec, increased data center
efficiency and a simplified supply chain management process!
18. The New World 1.0
Interfaces / API’s Interfaces / API’s
Still in the days of big mainframes / Solaris 2It’s all about lock in – certified stacks
Lots of free softwareLamp running everywhereMysql takes offOracle 9i still revolutionary
The bubble bursts and no longer can we order dogfood online and have it shipped to our door.But something happened – enterprises realized that they relied on technology that could one day go out of business
Enterprises adopt a new Strategy – one that supports flexibility and agility in softwareHow many people remember the first open source deployment they were a part of?Who installed some variation of Lamp?
The Rise of X86 in the data center:Vertically scaled stacks were being replaced with commodity X86 hardware
Massive amount of data, massive data center utilization1 to 1 workloads
Discuss new challenges, management domainsMany to 1 but no orchestrationDifferent hypervisors did different things
Nist definition of cloud:DynamicOrchestratedMeasureableOn Demand Self Service
Still in the days of big mainframes / Solaris 2It’s all about lock in – certified stacks
Lots and lots of data, lots and lots of infrastructure powered in part by lots and lots of open source software.

Still in the days of big mainframes / Solaris 2Not only did you have
Vendor lock in at an end.API’s are the new standard anti vendor lock in toolCompanies will compete on supportability and features
What if software could deterministically power up/down infrastructureWhat if hardware could self replicate compute / storage based on software thresholds?This is DCaaS, this is the future
