  2. IBM’s Point of View:Business Continuity is the MOST Critical IT Strategy Trigger Which three of the following statements best describe the most critical IT TRIGGERS driving your IT infrastructure and IT management software strategies? Question: 40% Disruptions to Critical IT Services 61% 53% Business Continuity /Security Requirements 59% 43% Business Application Availability/ Performance 53% 40% IT Ops & Support Too Expensive IT Management Strategy 34% 40% Improve Internal IT Staff Productivity 30% Strategic IT “Triggers” IT Infrastructure Strategy 35% High IT Cap Investment Requirements 29% 18% Integrate New IT Resources form M&A 20% 22% Pressure to Outsource to Third Party 17% 8% Other 4% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% Source: IT Infrastructure and IT Management, North American Adoption, Drivers and Triggers Survey Percentage Based on Actual Respondent Count

  4. Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) E-Mail SAN Integrated Solution Console TSM File Backup & Restore TSM for SAN TSM for Mail Databases ERP TSM for Database TSM for ERP Apps WAS 7x24 Services HSM TSM for Application Servers HSM for Windows TSM for Copy Services

  5. Features that set TSM Apart • A better backup method • “Full” nightly backups are not required • Just backup the changed data (Progressive Backup) • TSM creates a “full” backup from the “changed” data • Dramatically reduces backup times

  6. Features that set TSM Apart con’t • Disk and tape are a single resource • Data is written to disk, automatically overflows to tape • No extra work to: • Copy data to tape • Delete original data on disk • Flexible • Can choose to use only disk • Only tape • A combination of both

  7. Features that set TSM Apart con’t • Faster Restores • Designed to minimize restore times • Features that simplify disaster recovery • Bare Metal Recovery (Christie) • Customizable to fit any customer’s restore needs

  8. Features that set TSM Apart con’t • Inherently secure data • Tapes alone do not reveal the data • Must have tapes and the TSM database to read data • Can also be encrypted (56 or 128 bit) • Automatically recycles media to insure data reliability

  9. TSM Elevator Pitch Are your Disaster Recovery Plans current? Are your data retention policies meeting your current business requirements? Are you consistently meeting your backup windows? Are you following “best practices” in your data management policies? Who to Target: Database Admins, IT Managers, System Architects One liner: IBM Tivoli has a solution for backup and retrieval of critical data to comply with corporate and government regulations and to ensure business continuity in the event of natural disasters or human error.

  10. What is it? TSM – Provide automated, scaleable data protection through backup, archive, space management and bare-metal restore. What does it cost? TSM Extended - $640/100 VU’s TSM (Standard) -$360/100 VU’s Avg. deal size is $10,000 in software revenue Successful sales cycle averages 2 months Target Audience Upper SMB customers with heterogeneous IT environments Mid-Market customers with basic data storage needs Partner Profile & Qualifications: Existing Storage partners Resellers with Database experience Regional / local VARs Partners focused in regulated accounts (Healthcare, Finance, Government etc.) Competency in backup and recovery solutions Who are the key competitors? EMC, CommVault, Symantec, HP, CA The Play for TSM (Std & Ext)

  11. What is it? TSM Express – Provide an easy to use and cost effective data protection tool for SMB Windows users. Disk based backups with automated offsite tape functions. What does it cost? TSM Express - $201/100 VU’s Avg. deal size is $1000 in software revenue Successful sales cycle averages 2 months Target Audience SMB customers with 5 – 20 Windows servers without an easy-to-use, small footprint, backup solution Businesses that store critical data but maintain small IT departments Partner Profile & Qualifications: Existing Storage partners Resellers with Database experience Regional / local VARs Competency in backup and recovery solutions Who are the key competitors? Symantec, HP, CA, Yosemite The Play for TSM Express

  12. Why Clients should buy TSM Complete data recovery and management • Backup, restore & archive data • Built on superior relational database technology • Database and application protection • Hierarchical Space Management • Bare Metal Recovery (Christie)

  13. Why Partners should sell TSM Good Revenue Opportunity • Storage is an ever increasing requirement for policy and regulatory compliance • Relatively inexpensive solution with strong services opportunities. • Storage is a fundamental requirement for businesses – allowing the opportunity to up-sell and cross-sell additional solutions. ie security and monitoring. (get your foot in the door)

  14. Backup: Client Pain Points • Shrinking backup windows • Media reliability and integrity issues • Unrecoverable data on tape media • Unable to identify offsite media for restores • Too many backup applications • One solution for Windows environments • Separate one for Linux • Need for a cost effective DR strategy

  15. Value Statement for TSM • Drastically reduces backup windows • Media reliability and integrity issues • Constant verification identifies tape errors • Offsite media indexed for quick access • A single end to end backup solution • AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris or Windows • Cost Effective Disaster Recovery • Existing tape resources also used for DR • Less expensive and complicated than other solutions • Fully automated DR process
