ORACLE OPTIMIZED SOLUTION FOR ORACLE SECURE BACKUP

Elevator Pitch

These solutions using Oracle Secure Backup deliver next-generation data protection for Oracle Engineered Systems including: Exadata, SPARC
SuperCluster, and Oracle Optimized Solutions heterogeneous environments with near no single point of failure high availability and the security
of encryption. The flexible, multitier architecture provides accelerated data protection processing and virtually unlimited scalability with central
management and end-to-end data protection across heterogeneous technologies. These solutions complement Exadata and SPARC SuperCluster
backup solutions to the ZFS Storage Appliance by offering cost effective long-term storage on tape technologies.

Key Messages
Completes your solution, simplifies sales and expedites closes, shortens sales cycle
Lock competitors out of the sales opportunity, eliminate the need for lengthy backup and recovery POCs
Single Vendor Total Solution, strengthen account control
Oracle Secure Backup reduces licensing costs and maintenance costs by about 75% over comparable products

Competitive
MAIN COMPETITORS (see full oos collateral for substantiation)
Solution EMC Data domain De-duplication is best for replicating backups of solutions that do
not have replication built in. Oracle replicates data much more
intelligently at the database level and ZFSSA levels so we dont
need expensive de-duplication technologies.

Winning the Customer/Objection Handling


Customers need this solution to simplify their backup and recovery of Engineered Systems and Oracle Optimized Solutions.

C-Level Top Concerns

Oracle Secure Backup is immature compared to other products.

Oracle Secure Backup is the most integrated backup and recovery software with Oracle Database and applications in the industry.

Mid-Level and Datacenter Manager Concerns

Oracle Secure Backup does not have all the features our existing solution has and does not seem to be a viable solution to provide data
protection for the entire datacenter.

Oracle Secure Backup does not have many features other solutions have, but it does not require many of them as many of those
features are included in our software stack in much more intelligent positions. De-duplication does not work well with EHCC or
HCC for example and replication is done higher in the solution stack than a third party solution.
