Press Release

Aliso Viejo, Calif.—August 28, 2007—3Tera, Inc., the leading innovator of grid computing and utility computing services for web applications, announced today the availability of enterprise licenses for 3Tera's AppLogic grid operating system for enterprise customers.

The new licensing model builds on the strength of 3Tera's AppLogic grid computing technology currently used by hosting providers such as British Telecom (BT) to offer utility computing services. Now, enterprises can leverage AppLogic in their own operations to provide virtual private data centers for individual lines of business or applications. A Virtual Private Data Center has functionally equivalent to a colocation facility, enabling users to define fully custom application infrastructure using just a browser. AppLogic then creates and maintains the infrastructure for the user on the grid. As a result, data center design and operations are greatly simplified. Complex requirements like high availability and disaster recovery become easy and affordable enough to implement for all applications.

Vlad Miloushev, president and CEO, 3Tera said, Many IT organizations are looking to leverage Internet technology to increase the control and scalability of their IT infrastructure. With AppLogic, enterprise users can build their own utility computing services to ease data center design and operations, including business continuity, backup strategies, application design, security, deployment, performance optimization and monitoring."

3Tera's recent benchmarking results proved that Virtual Private Datacenters are a viable solution for enterprise customers running large scale online applications," said Barry X Lynn, 3Tera executive chairman and former CIO of Wells Fargo Bank. As a previous Fortune 500 CIO, I was certainly proud of the IT infrastructure I helped build. While it was the most efficient IT infrastructure in the financial services industry, it would not be able to compete with what we could have created using AppLogic. Enterprises now can build internal utilities, providing IT resources on demand to the different lines of business."

Large enterprises are constantly searching for scalable, easy to manage IT solutions to support business goals," said Robert C. Hamer III, chairman and CEO of Primitive Logic, a leading business consulting and technology services firm that specializes in helping enterprises to adapt emerging technologies. 3Tera's AppLogic utility computing solution enables our clients in the financial services and retail sectors, among others, to reduce IT costs while increasing the flexibility of their information systems to support new applications and handle varying levels of demand."

Availability
The AppLogic License is available starting September 1, 2007 for qualified customers operating applications on 50 or more servers. More information is available at www.3tera.com/utility-computing-in-house.html.

About 3Tera's AppLogic Grid Operating System
The AppLogic grid operating system is the first commercial platform designed specifically to enable true utility computing. The system converts commodity servers into scalable grids on which users can visually operate deploy and scale transactional Web applications without any modification of code. At the heart of the system is 3Tera's disposable infrastructure technology that packages applications with the definition of the infrastructure required to run them into self-contained and portable entities, able to run on any grid anywhere in the world. As a result, applications become completely separated from the hardware infrastructure traditionally needed to run them, allowing users to remotely manage their applications through a Web browser and provision resources as needed.
