2. Company overview
The Elastic Server platform launched in February 2007 as the industry’s
first automated, web-based quot;factoryquot; for creating, deploying and
managing custom, multi-sourced assemblies comprised of horizontal,
open source and third-party software components.
Custom servers and appliances can be assembled in minutes and
deployed to the cloud or virtual environment.
More than 3,300 registered users have created 7,500+ Elastic Servers
We enable individual developers and teams of developers to assemble, 20 Cloud Computing

3. The “more of everything” problem
has created serious complexity
Multiple...
• Operating Systems
• Components
• Integration Modules
• Virtualization Formats
• (and now) Clouds

4. Server Configuration: magic files in
magic formats put in magic locations
Server “assembly” costs are THE
Enterprise IT cost
- 20-year journey from single file
deployment to homogenous architecture
(the “C” program on Unix) to single file
deployment on heterogeneous
architecture (the VM to everywhere)
The rate of M&A activity in the IT
industry almost guarantees more
complexity

The Elastic Server Platform - Real-time server
assembly
- Our automated Elastic Server factory helps ISVs, individual
developers and teams assemble, deploy and manage individual
servers for the cloud or virtual environment.
- Acts as repository for virtual server’s “bill-of-materials”; can be
redeployed as often and to as many different virtualization
formats as desired
“Cubed” Solutions
- Enterprise-Cubed
- “Your infrastructure, in the clouds, in your control”
- ISV-Cubed
- “Your solution, virtualization-ready, cloud-ready”
- VPN Cubed - Cloud security and control
- “Your virtual machines, in the virtual network you control”
- Customer-controlled overlay network that provides a security perimeter within a cloud, across
clouds or connecting private infrastructure to the clouds
- VPN-Cubed™, is a complement to our automated platform

6. CFT’s on-boarding solution the ElasticServer Platform
A repository or ‘forge’ of your multi-sourced software components;
commercial, open source infrastructure and your own proprietary code.
This allows you to catalogue, share, control and monitor the components
available to and used by your development teams and operations
organizations.
A manufacturing plant for building tried and tested application stacks
(Elastic Servers) on demand; simply select your approved components
from menu-based portals and click to build. Configuration and build takes
place in minutes. The Elastic Severs are injected with management
interfaces and made available for download or deployment to online and
virtual computing infrastructures.
A content management system for component assemblies providing
application stack lifecycle management and rapid provisioning; also
recording each servers unique history, enabling monitoring and patch
management. In the data center you can then manage unique software
servers just like other devices - each manageable, portable and
maintainable.
