  3. IT Consolidation Solution Overview

  4. Business Drivers for IT Consolidation How virtualization improves your business • Capital Expense • Overbuilt infrastructure is obvious place to save money • Redundant servers, storage, and network • Underutilized resources • Operations Expense • Redundant assets create unnecessary expense • Inefficient use of space and power • IT resources to manage redundant assets • IT Management Efficiency • Businesses need to expand services without increasing infrastructure • Pressure by investors on IT to do more with less • Physical space and power limitations 5

  5. IT Consolidation Key Components • IT consolidation enables businesses to reduce costs and improve business agility by: • Consolidating existing hardware resources based on virtualization • Optimizing physical and human resource requirements, and simplifying physical environment Server Consolidation Storage Consolidation Physical/Virtual Management ManagementConsoles Management console Physical/Virtual Management Fibre Channel Switch Fabric / IP Network Consolidated Servers VHD Consolidated Storage 6

  6. Server Consolidation Equal or increased capacity with less hardware 6% utilization 10% utilization • Server utilization • Number of physical servers • Power usage • Floor space 9% utilization 11% utilization 14% utilization 50% utilization 7

  7. Storage Consolidation • Storage consolidation optimizes storage implementation for a virtualized environment based on consolidated, shared, and virtualized storage, saving cost, and improving business agility. • Storage utilization • Business agility • Number of physical storage • Power usage • Floor space • Energy for cooling • Provisioning VHD Shared Storage 8

  8. Physical/Virtual Management • Effectively managing physical and virtual entities is critical to improving efficiency of time, cost, and resources. • IT efficiency • Resource utilization • Management complexity Physical/Virtual Management Consolidated Servers VHD Consolidated Storage 9

  9. Microsoft IT Consolidation Solution

  10. Microsoft Virtualization Solutions Not just a product, but an end-to-end offering Microsoft Products and Technologies Microsoft Partner Hardware, Software, and Services Joint Reference Architecture and Deployment Resources 11

  11. Microsoft IT Consolidation Dynamic, reliable, and scalable virtualization platform Comprehensive solutions for a data center to maximize resource utilization with longer-term vision of integrated virtualization technology Server Consolidation Partner Solutions Storage infrastructure and storage management Storage Consolidation Flexible integration with storage devices of industry leading partners and support of efficient storage utilization Physical/Virtual Management Unified integrated solution for managing entire environment – both physical and virtual assets, and both server and desktop resources 12

  13. Microsoft Server Consolidation Server Consolidation Amplify savings and value with Microsoft’s platform approach to virtualization. Improve Hardware Utilization • Microsoft has extensive experience in server consolidation–practices, tools, and OS support • Windows Server® 2008 Hyper-V™ based virtualization dramatically improves hardware utilization Storage Consolidation Reduce Operating Costs • Requires less space, less cooling, and fewer kilowatt hours of power • No extra software required–power management is a feature of Microsoft® Windows Server® 2008 Physical/Virtual Mgmt. • “We liked the fact that Hyper-V™ was built into Windows Server® 2008. With Hyper-V™, we don’t need separate drivers for the hypervisor, and we don’t pay additional licensing fees.” • Bart Roels, Operations Manager, Hostbasket 14

  14. Microsoft Server Consolidation (continued) Server Consolidation Business Agility Network Load Balancing • Quick/Live migration provides fast recovery and minimizes downtime • Assets always available via high availability features of OS • Improved performance and security (64-bit environment) • Fast server provisioning for new business requirements VHD Storage Consolidation Clustering Broad Array of Device Support Management Efficiency Physical/Virtual Mgmt. • Single solution for managing the entire IT • Server and desktop resources • Virtual and physical assets Broad OS Support • Slough Borough Council cuts the average time to provision a new server from 16 hours to just three minutes, which translates to $23,700 annual savings in deployment costs. 15

  15. Storage Consolidation for Virtualization Server Consolidation Comprehensive, integrated, and well supported Microsoft Solutions and Technologies Microsoft Partner Hardware Software and Services Windows Server® 2008 and Hyper-V™ Storage Infrastructure Storage Consolidation • Fully integrated virtualization technology and storage support • Flexible support for all popular storage types • High performance support • Mature built-in high availability • Strong support from industry leading storage vendors: EMC®, NetApp®, HDS®, Compellent, HP, and Dell® • Broad compatibility with diverse storage devices Physical/Virtual Mgmt.

  17. End-to-end Physical/Virtual Management Server Consolidation A centralized, end-to-end integrated solution for managing an entire environment Fully support physical and virtual management across Microsoft and VMware ® infrastructure Virtual Environment Storage Consolidation Physical Environment Physical/Virtual Mgmt. Familiar interface and tools means minimal re-tooling of IT resources Physical/Virtual Management 18

  18. Physical/Virtual ManagementWhat satisfied customers are saying Server Consolidation Virtual, Physical, and Cross-Hypervisor Management • “…if my central console can manage both my Microsoft virtual machines and my VMware® virtual machines with an interface that is familiar and easy for my Microsoft certified staff, that's a big plus.” • Brent Register, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Storage Consolidation Disaster Recovery with System Center “Doing this on physical hardware takes a couple of hours; with virtual machines, it takes minutes.” Robert McShinsky Senior Systems Administrator, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center Physical/Virtual Mgmt. System Center Application Virtualization Deployment • “Now we can deploy both virtualized and installed applications using the same procedure.” • Arne Bertgen, IT administrator for Tuv Nord 19
