Virtualization – The Opportunity
“Virtualization – Killer platform for the next-generation data center”
(Merrill Lynch, 22 Oct 2007)
Hardware refresh is key to virtualization efficiencies
 “Improved utilization means fewer physical servers are needed
for a given amount of computing workload”
“The perfect storm of growth drivers”
 x86 server utilization averages only 10%-15% of total capacity
 Virtualization optimizes multi-core processors’ utilization
 Virtualization helps failover, disaster recovery, and reduces
downtime
Virtualization Changes the Game Entirely
with Renewed Level of IT Empowerment

Pool and consolidate – Do more with less
Increase hardware utilization without isolation penalty
Reduce number of servers to cut operating costs
Instantly provision new server on shared resource pool
Scale out, not up – Let the idle be idle
Silo’ed and dedicated deployments result in overprovisioning and under-utilization of multiple servers

Virtual deployments can easily be scaled horizontally so
that steady state deployments are more efficient
Achieve flexibility – Prioritize, decide, control
Infrastructure becomes flexible thru policy-based
automation and dynamic capacity on demand
Manage applications SLAs and not their configurations

BEA and VMware are the Sweet Spot
Virtualization based on industry-standard x86 servers is
growing fast and accelerating
VMware dominate the x86 hypervisor virtualization space
Application servers are the next big growth area for
virtualization
Massive installed base of Enterprise Java applications
which will reap massive TCO benefits from virtualization
BEA has unique technology which will allow customers
to virtualize Enterprise Java with superior efficiency,
reliability and scalability
BEA LiquidVM
First Virtualization-Enabled JVM
WHAT IT IS: Designed to be deployed within a
dedicated virtual machine directly on hypervisorbased virtualization platforms on x86 servers
(Initially VMware Infrastructure)
HOW IT WORKS: Embedded POSIX based *nix
emulation layer runs a single JRockit JVM as
kernel process within virtual machine without
exposing any external non-Java interfaces to user
WHAT IT DOES: Enables deployment of Java
applications and SOA services running within the
JVM as virtualized software appliances with
greater efficiency of memory and CPU utilization

“OS Shim”
WebLogic Server Virtual Edition
First Java Platform for Virtualized Environments
WHAT IT IS: Software appliance containing
WLS Premium with LiquidVM that delivers readyto-run platform for Enterprise Java Apps
optimized out-of-the-box for virtualized
environments
HOW IT WORKS: Pre-configured ISO Image
gets read from shared storage environment and
deployed within virtual machine dynamically
WHAT IT DOES: Unlocks the full utilization
potential of server virtualization for Enterprise
Java Applications by improving overall efficiency
and reducing operations and management costs
WLS-VE

LiquidVM
WebLogic Liquid Operations Control
Governance of Multiple Java Applications
Deployed on Virtualized Resource Pool
WHAT IT IS: Policy-based framework for
automating deployment and governance of
Java applications and services onto
virtualized and non-virtualized hardware
resources
HOW IT WORKS: Agents interface with
remote endpoints to monitor and execute
instructions based on flexible rules and
action framework
WHAT IT DOES: Simplifies management of
multiple Java applications and reduces
overall operating costs
