It Isn’t Easy Being the Keynote for a VMS TUD Meeting…
But I Guess I’ll Drop In and Give It a Try!
My Name is Terry, and I am a VMS Veteran § I first picked up VMS 3. 4 over 20 years ago as a VAX 11/750 system manager. It was a highly addictive experience. § Less than a year later, I wrote “Introduction to VAX/VMS” and well over 150 VMS-related articles, papers, and presentations. § Directed IDC DEC Advisory Service, helped form Illuminata, Inc. § Launched Shannon Knows DEC/Compaq/HPC ten years ago § Aided the VMS effort via customer roadshows, briefings, user group meetings, presentations, and CIO breakfasts worldwide. § And I think the best may be yet to come… – – – VMS comes to Itanium (be careful what you wish for…) VMS remains the GOLD STANDARD for clusters Management enhanced by Open. View VMS expertise will advance UDC and Adaptive Infrastructure Security and disaster tolerance issues: not if, but when VMS is a springboard to ubiquitous mission-critical computing
June 25, 2001: Compaq EOLs Alpha § History will prove that Compaq made the right decision when it decided to cancel EV 8 and transition, over time, all of its enterprise systems from Alpha to Intel’s Itanium Architecture. § And yes, you may quote me on this… Make my day, skeptics!

A Marvel-ous EV 7 Alpha. Server GS 1280
HP Multi-OS Hardware, Circa ~2007 § Note: This slide is based on analysis of current products, announced roadmaps, and public data. As such, it is hypothetical and conjectural. § Goal: develop and deliver The Mother of all Enterprise Servers § SKHPC assessment of product development and attributes – Produced by ~50 -person IPF development section as part of the High Performance Systems Lab (HPSL) in Hardware Systems Technology Division (HSTD). Distributed in SHR, MRO, Colorado, Richardson. § Advanced development team focused on roadmap linkage, definition, architecture, topology, performance work, as well as base technology assessment and proofs of concept § Implementation team to deliver an SPU (system processing unit) consistent with current HSTD development practices including boards, signal integrity, mechanical, power, thermal, utilities, etc. Team will leverage existing HP ASIC’s, CPU’s, diagnostics and IO options. – Design and appearance: Superdome-centric with Alpha attributes § Result: Post-Superdome with additional performance and scalability – The first, true, open-systems alternative to proprietary mainframe and parallel cluster technology. And, a new ability to attack the Main Rival of 2006 -2007: IBM, of course! (Sun isn’t likely to be a factor in 2007)
The Ideal Server in 2007: SKHPC’s Vision § No limit to Moore’s law so CPU speeds in> 6 GHz region § CPU counts to ~256 processors which allows HP deliver SC-like systems in a box partitioned all the way down to individual processes using the continuum of partitioning technologies § An order of magnitude improvement in availability with proactive diagnosis tools that anticipate possible failures and automatically correct through re-configuration or early replacement of failing components § Incredibly large cache and memory sizes allow you to run almost any app in memory at the fastest possible speed § TPC-C numbers of several million (conservative estimate) § HPTC performance so high that HP can model virtually any scientific phenomenon § Easily clustered, interoperable, and a component of the HP Utility Datacenter (Built on inexpensive industry standard components and able to run all HP OSes and the full set of industry applications
HP’s Operating Systems § HP-UX (you’ve heard plenty already!) § Tru 64 UNIX (portions already merged into HP-UX) § Linux (this is the one to watch!) § Windows (too much has been said about this!) § Open. VMS (Dead Meat? I don’t think so…)
And Now The $800, 000 (or 64 -bit) Question: Is HP Serious About the 64 -bit OVMS World? § VMS is NOT Going Away: A Plethora of Proof Points… – – – Decision to maintain VMS was made very early in Clean Room Hundreds of thousands of systems, millions of users High margins and stellar synergy with HP Services 200 dedicated Open. VMS Ambassadors worldwide VMS: far more successful in 25 years than I’ve been in 50 years The gold standard for clustering… and HP has it now! § § All RAS, no FUD-laden futures Underpinnings for Galaxy APMP, future adaptive systems – VMS on IPF: It LIVES! – A bright present, and an even brighter future for VMS § Increasing interoperability and commonality with Unix and Linux § Ironclad security and immunity to worms, viruses, and hackers – A return to growth mode… entirely possible!
VMS: Carly Likes it, Too!….
Open. VMS: The Song Remains the Same
Moving forward: Why Stay With Alpha/VMS? What Alpha/VMS Customers are Asking: Show Us the Business Value § Need compelling business reason (e. g. cost savings, improved ROI) beyond the migration that results in competitive edge in the marketplace § Don’t force us to transition for the sake of technology § Minimize cost of transition for entire IT environment while increasing total TCO savings § Demonstrate why the next generation IT move with HP is better for my business than a move to IBM… or Sun, if they’re still a player in the business! Help Us Take Away the Risk § Ensure application availability § Absolutely no unplanned downtime during introduction of new environment § Minimize impact to IT support staff through training on new environment and “how to” transition guide § New environment becomes a superset of the existing environment to solve next generation business problems § Prove HP’s commitment by delivering on roadmaps; no forced transition; gradual transition with minimum risk
The Alpha Retain. Trust Program HP Will Extend Alpha Viability and Value by… § Building upon 25 years of solid experience § Creating and extending the gold standard of cluster technology § Leveraging experience in 10 -year chip lifecycle transitions § Delivering “virtually unprecedented” levels of guarantees to our Alpha customers § With our partners, providing leadership in key market segments § The Bottom Line: – Alpha remains a safe bet for Alpha customers today!

While Compaq Wanted to Virtualize Disks and CPUs, HP Decided to Go A Bit Farther… § Deal with all of the problems of today’s data centers § Extend Compaq’s Adaptive Infrastructure strategy § Employ all key HP Oses, including Open. VMS § Deploy future IT centers as Utility Data Centers – – Wire your data center once Virtualize all of your resources and assets Let management software do all the heavy lifting And the network will be the system § Open. VMS will play a strong role in UDC and AE § IT as a utility was first envisioned by Ken Olsen nearly 20 years ago.
Why UDC and Adaptive Enterprise? Increased Volume of Change Business challenges § Improve business performance, quality and ROI, while reducing costs § Minimize risk associated with change § Drive new business models and direction § Shorten time-to-market § Enable mergers, acquisitions and divestitures Ability to Adapt Quickly IT IT imperatives § Link business and IT § Reduce costs, ensure stability and flexibility § Reduce complexity § Optimize assets today and tomorrow § Extend value and reach of the enterprise § Reduce headcount
The Downsides of Today’s Data Centers Very Expensive to Operate Requires manual, labor-intensive deployments for even minor changes to IT environments • Inefficient asset utilization because of lack of data center-wide load balancing capability • Development, support and use of home-grown management applications is cumbersome • Inflexible and Complex Vendor provides a fixed, inflexible architecture to each customer regardless of specific needs • • Highly complex overall architecture is required to accommodate each user’s and app’s needs Difficult to scale because of evolutionary growth or react rapidly to spikes in demand • Error Prone and Unreliable Human intervention accompanies every change request and implementation • Introduction of new infrastructures is invariably slow, costly, and disruptive. • No data center-wide high availability threatens critical or irreplaceable data. • No integrated management view of all services and operational environment •

SKHPC’s Top 5 Open. VMS Predictions § Here are some Key Open. VMS Predictions § Many of these will be reality by the next TUD
Prediction Number 1 § First VMS Industry Standard 64 SDK Today – Open. VMS on IPF, aka Open. VMS Industry Standard 64 – Open. VMS on an industry-standard platform? Be careful what you wish for, sometimes you get it! § Targets include Key ISVs, Partners, Early Adopter § Contents of Open. VMS V 8. 0 “Mako” – Monitor Utility – DECnet Phase IV, TCP/IP – Development Tools § Cross Linker, Librarian § Compilers – C, C++, BLISS, FORTRAN, IMACRO
Prediction Number 2 § Second VMS/IPF SDK before end of year § Target Audience: Key ISVs, Partners, Early Adopters § Contents of Open. VMS V 8. 1 “Jaws” – Limited cluster functionality (4 nodes) – Native Compilers § C, C++, BLISS, FORTRAN, IMACRO, Pascal, BASIC, COBOL – Additional Layered Products § § § Networks, Data Serving Security e. Business Integration Application Development
Prediction Number 3 § Production VMS Industry Standard 64 in 2004 § Candidate Components for Open. VMS 8. 2 “Topaz” – System & I/O Performance Enhancements – Cluster Interconnect Enhancements – Fibre/SAN enhanced support including Disaster Tolerance Enhancements – Continued Security Enhancements – More updates for e-Business and Integration – Alpha Compatibility with Open. VMS Itanium release, including Clusters – More UNIX Portability features
Prediction Number 4 § Continued VMS/Itanium ISV Attraction – New ports announced almost daily – VMS/UNIX interoperability aids porting effort – HP is increasing focus on Itanium ports § Former customers returning to VMS – Success of IPF port is the causative factor – Windows penetration of enterprise is slow – Clustering, RAS, Disaster Tolerance are boosting VMS acceptance § Potential licensing changes may reduce entry price for VMS (variation on HP-UX model)
Prediction Number 5 § VMS/Itanium will proliferate § Gating factor: low-cost Itanium desktops – Not a near-term development – SKHPC estimates 4 -5 years for low-cost systems § VMS on Itanium Laptops? – Definitely, when the price is right (desktops much sooner) § VMS on non-HP Itanium systems? – Almost certainly – Any Itanium system that “plays by the rules” is a potential VMS host § VMS port to another 64 -bit architecture? – Not currently planned – But not beyond the realm of possibility
IT Will Be a Two Horse Race Well, he always ran best In the mud….
