Storage Sales Academy EMC FUD #1: Ding Dong! The DS 8000 is Dead DS 8000 sales are declining and there are no future investment planned. IBM’s acquisition of Grid XIV Enterprise Disk confirms the DS 8000’s imminent demise. §IBM Response: ► ► 10 DMX growth is declining ● Too costly and complex, service and support degrading CX 4 announcement looks to overlay DMX sales ● Much more Enterprise storage functionality ● Over twice the scalability of CX 3 DS 8000 has product roadmap until 2011 (three year plan) ● Significant new capabilities, performance and scalability XIV complements DS 8000 ● DS 8000 has higher maximum capacity, z and i support ● XIV is optimized for ease of management IBM Software © 2008 IBM Corporation IBM Confidential
Storage Sales Academy EMC FUD #2: IBM Innovation That Doesn’t Matter The DMX-4 offers: thin provisioning, SSD flash drives, 1 TB SATA-II disks, i. SCSI or Gb. E channels, and 4 Gbps disk connectivity. The DS 8000 offers none of these innovations. §IBM Response: ► ► ► 11 Vendor feature leapfrog occurs, based on development priorities ● DS 8000 offers unique capabilities: ARC and AMP cache algorithms, 3 -tier processor design, first to market with switched FC back end … IBM focuses on the features that offer most client benefit ● IBM Server synergy features (System i, p, z) ● z/OS DFSMS has managed storage cost effectively for >20 years DS 8000 has native thin provisioning, flash drives, 1 TB SATA-II disks on the roadmap for 2009 ● SVC can provide free thin provisioning today for the DS 8000 et al ● SVC “Quick. Silver” shows more flash drive promise IBM offers N series Gateways for i. SCSI, NAS or Gb. E connectivity 4 Gbps disk pathing delivers negligible performance improvement IBM Software © 2008 IBM Corporation IBM Confidential
Storage Sales Academy EMC FUD #3: “DS 8000 is a CLARii. ON in Disguise” The IBM DS 8100 is a similar architecture to that of the EMC CLARii. ON, in that it is built on a dual-controller p 570 cluster for processing. Additional processing power can only be achieved by adding more independent DS 8100 systems and building separate storage pools. §IBM Response: ► ► 12 DS 8000 has a 3 -tier processor design (CLARii. ON is single tier) ● Top tier: up to 64 host adapter Power. PC processors plus ASICs ● Central tier: 2 x Power 5+ 2 - or 4 -way SMP processor complexes ● Bottom tier: up to 32 disk adapter Power. PC processors plus ASICs No comparison: scalability is irrelevant without linear performance ● DMX-4 cannot support average access density with maximum disks A more reasonable comparison is a CX 4 and a DS 5000 ● CX 4 still doesn’t measure up in terms of DS 5000 I/O per TB Customer Question: what can you compare CX 4 performance to? ● EMC fearful of SPC benchmark; but Net. App did the CX 3 IBM Software © 2008 IBM Corporation IBM Confidential

Storage Sales Academy IBM Winning Sales Tactics § Focus on EMC’s Weaknesses ► ► ► DS 8000 synergies and unique functions for System z, p and IBM i IBM Encryption strategy (disk and tape) vs. Power. Path/RSA ► Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manger consolidated key management SAN Volume Controller Disk Virtualization vs. Invista GTS / LAB services: extensive added value portfolio: assess, implement, manage Tivoli Storage Manager vs. Legato “Xtenders” § Does it really matter? What real benefit does this provide? ► ► EMC will distract the client with dozens of seemingly critical, unique DMX-4 functions ● Many are not implemented well or easy to use, and are of little value Evaluate and quantify the real benefit of these proposed DMX-4 features ● Compare and quantify the business value of proposed DS 8000 features § Ensure EMC includes all necessary software ► 23 Many necessary software licenses may be missing ● Ensure apples-to-apples software functionality in proposal IBM Software © 2008 IBM Corporation IBM Confidential
Storage Sales Academy Four EMC Silver Bullets § Affordable to Buy, but Expensive to Run ► ► Complicated to manage and maintain ● Forces mandatory services, slower provisioning, error-prone EMC charges up to $450 K/year for Technical Residents ● Configuration changes typically $5 K/each (modify BIN file) § Less Effective Replication Services ► Synchronous: shorter distance, slower response times ► Asynchronous: more bandwidth, cache, no safety copy, longer RPOs ► Unproven mainframe D/R automation solutions (GDPS vs. GDDR) § Sub-par and Late IBM Server Synergies ► System z functions late and with lower capability (e. g. FICON, PAV …) ► Non-compliant on many new IBM i advanced external storage functions § Declining EMC Service ► ► 24 Free service and support, on-site EMC SE(s) less common today Frustrating for customers who need help with day-to-day operations IBM Software © 2008 IBM Corporation IBM Confidential
