  1. The Power to Change

  2. Improved IT eficiency IT has become more eficient by virtualizing compute, storage and networking of traditional infrastructure.

  3. Driving IT transformation: Agility According to a Gartner Data Center Poll on Private Cloud Computing Drivers, 58% of respondents indicate agility and speed as the most important driver in moving to private clouds.

  4. Driving IT transformation: Cloud IT e‰ciency is continually improving at a rapid rate, specifically in the following areas: automation 1. Optimized Resource Utilization Automated workflows allow for resources to easily and e‰ciently be maximized. 2. Accelerated Service Delivery Virtualization cuts delivery time even further, from days down to minutes. 1 2 3 4 3. Reduced Complexity via Standardization The complication of delivering and accessing resources is nearly eliminated. 4. Improved Operational E‰ciency With automated resource reclamation, new resources are delivered quickly, boosting productivity and reducing lengthy tasks.

  5. Driving IT transformation: Self-service cloud A customized self-service approach enables faster delivery times and allows IT executives to maintain control over the cloud experience.

  6. Cloud technologies driving operational change New data from the VMware 2013 CloudOps Transformation Benchmark Survey revealed that automation is the #1 most substantially impactful transformation for IT. This is ahead of: Horizontal scaling Hybrid environments Vertical resource scaling Service orientation On-demand provisioning

  7. Automating cloud management Automation enables IT to: Accelerate service delivery times Reduce cost Improve operational e‰ciency Ease deployment and management Optimize resource utilization

  8. Reduce cost Private cloud cost savings are much easier to quantify. Improvements in IT e‰ciency are the foundation for the enhancements in agility and speed necessary to improve productivity and address new business opportunities.

  9. Improve operational e ciency Cloud automation should support both private and hybrid clouds, optimizing horizontal and vertical scaling. Hybrid environments Vertical resource scaling Horizontal scaling 10

  10. Ease deployment and management Automating your cloud accelerates deployment times and cuts overall management costs. Enforce governance with policies, not people Automated resource reclamation 10

  11. Optimize resource utilization Most companies assume a percentage of their resources will be wasted because the costs to control and reclaim manually is greater than the savings. However, it can account for between 15 to 25% of company resources. Leverage tiered service levels Reclaim and reuse inactive resources Reduce over-provisioning 11

  12. Cloudsyntrix Goals Improve operational e‰ciency Optimize resource utilization Accelerate VM deployments 12

  13. Cloudsyntrix Goals Private cloud cost savings are much easier to quantify and justify. Improvements in IT e‰ciency are foundational for the enhancements in agility and speed necessary to improve productivity and address new business opportunities. Business Requirements: Cloud Automation Provided: Improve operational e ciency Increase VM count by 20% with minimal CapEx 80% improvement in operational e‰ciency Reduce System Admins provisioning and reconfiguration task time $132K in operational savings System Admin availability to focus on new business opportunities Optimize resource utilization Reduce over-provisioned VMs $106K resource reclamation Reclaim inactive VM capacity $49K reclamation e‰ciency $261K total resource e‰ciency Accelerate VM deployments Improve service delivery times to meet increased demand Improved service delivery from days to minutes

  14. Cloudsyntrix Goals “With VMware, we have reduced the time needed to deploy virtual machines, as well as the e¦ort of individuals required to focus on manual steps to provision. This is saving money by refocusing towards strategic activities rather than building servers.” Implementing cloud automation resulted in the following ROI: Accelerated service delivery 98% | 4 days to 1.5 hrs. Lowered operational costs 80% | $132K in savings Optimized resource utilization 20% | $261K Savings
