COMPUTING – SERVERS<br />
Big Iron Mainframes<br />
Rack Servers<br />
• Millions of dollars<br />
• High OPEX<br />
• Single vendor supply chain<br />
• Shortage of expertise<br />
• Just under $2000<br />
• Lower power, easy<br />
to manage<br />
• Distributed supply chain<br />
• Large pool of expertise<br />

EMERGING UTILITY NETWORKING – SWITCHES<br />
Big Iron Chassis Switch<br />
Fixed TOR Switches<br />
• Higher CAPEX<br />
• High OPEX<br />
• Vertical, single vendor<br />
supply chain<br />
• Shortage of expertise<br />
• Lower CAPEX<br />
