5 . to the dynamic infrastructure Computing Platform Focus Infrastructure Abstraction Storage Network The draw is saving money, but after a year or so, surveys show that adopters believe the key is agility. Tom Bittman, Gartner Fast Flexible Dynamic The building block for the datacenter 5

6 . to the private cloud! Highly efficient Simplified mgmt thru abstraction On-demand scale The private cloud is the best place to run any existing application 6

7 Private clouds, the best place to run tier 1 app s Consolidation Decrease infrastructure cost for Server HW Save space and energy in the datacenter Archive consolidation ratios of 5:1 to 10:1 Scale physical infrastructure on demand Availability Minimize planned downtime Reduce recovery timer for server failure down to zero Build cross site disaster recovery solutions Increase overall availability Use redundant infrastructure immediately 7

8 Private clouds, the best place to run tier 1 app s Manageability Scale infrastructure as needed Gain flexibility through workload mobility Move Apps during hardware maintenance Reduce management cost per app Quality of Service Ensure appropriate resource assignment Continuously monitor SLAs React proactive and fast to issues Dynamic scale resource as application needs grow 8
