17 Transportation Company Inefficient Data Access Customer concerns High MLC cost and 30%+ annual growth rate of MIPS Wanted to move applications off mainframe to reduce MIPS Lesson Learned Many applications access VSAM data on z Some CICS logic moved down to WebLogic (1,000 MIPS), Some CICS logic moved to DB2 store procedure Inefficiency of data access from distributed servers actually increased MIPS DB2 webslogic CICS webslogic DB2 Open Read Read Read VSAM zenterprise Economics April 2011 Open Read Close Open Read Close VSAM 17

18 Government Agency Data Expansion Customer concerns Mainframe too expensive Wanted to move applications from mainframe to Bull (p5 based) servers Lesson Learned Most data in IMS and DB2 on z Unfeasible to move IMS on z to Oracle on UNIX Database expansion from IMS hierarchical to Oracle RDB 2x-3x expansion of database additional 2x-3x CPU for data processing Scalability limitation of Oracle RAC Need to partition large database Round-robin fail-over arrangement of Oracle RAC servers would crippled performance zenterprise Economics April

19 Food Retail Systems Management Costs Customer concerns Mainframe too expensive Approached by Oracle to move Peoplesoft applications to UNIX $14,000,000 $12,000,000 $10,000,000 $8,000,000 $6,000,000 $4,000,000 $2,000,000 Distributed Mainframe Lesson Learned Moving system management tools to distributed servers increases software costs Tools pricing based on the # of cores to be managed For 2 UNIX servers (32 cores), these tools alone would require $8.4M OTC purchase plus $1.8M annual subscription fees $0 OTC Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 zenterprise Economics April

20 Insurance Overlapped Costs for Hardware Refresh Customer concerns TCO Lesson Learned Overlapped distributed server deployment resulted in over 20% overhead Distributed servers are typically leased in 36-month cycle 6 or more months are needed to prepare and deploy new servers, which require a 6-month overlap for each 30-month period, or a 20% overhead Installing and removing distributed servers requires significant resource as well 15 FTE zenterprise Economics April

21 Observed At A Large Financial Services Customer Hardware Generation Lifecycle of Unix Servers Initial Distributed System 6 months provisioning 1 st Technology Refresh 30 months 24 months production 2nd Technology Refresh 3rd Technology Refresh In each 30 month lease there are only 24 months production use. Setup and tear-down time costs 25% more. Plus hours of FTE setup and tear down labor per server = $3075 Lifecycle of Mainframe Generations Hardware Generation 30 months Initial Mainframe System 30 months 1 st Technology Refresh 30 months 2 nd Technology Refresh Weekend upgrades performed by IBM capacity on demand pricing. 1 Weekend upgrading to new hardware and software levels Time 30 months production No need to retire the server, upgrade in place. zenterprise Economics April

22 Automotive Manufacturing Unutilized MIPS Customer concerns Need to deploy a sales incentive application mainframe too expensive Lesson Learned Client does not use VWLC Pricing, existing white space capacity can support the new application, only $0.8M of application tools will be needed In comparison, the distributed solution would cost over $18M zenterprise Economics April

23 Financial Institution No more power Customer concerns The customer needed to add new distributed servers for Oracle applications The local utility company prohibits adding more cables in the metropolitan area Lesson Learned Consolidate 56 HP servers into 4 IFL avoid the power constraint Fewer cores also reduce software license cost zenterprise Economics April

24 Distributed Server Sprawl To Minimize Manufacturing Site Impact with Server Downtime Manufacturing Sites Application: Runs on 80 HP DL360 Servers Communications controllers for 45 manufacturing sites Must operate 24 x 7 Interfaces with Production Mainframe and sends vital data over network If server goes down, manufacturing site is down Customer decided not consolidate to minimize number of sites impacted due to server downtime 80 HP DL360 2 core Servers 3 to 5% Utilization Solution: System z10 Linux Only two IFLs required Lower HW maintenance, software, labor, networking, floor space and power costs Higher reliability, flexibility zenterprise Economics April

25 Why So Many Distributed Servers? De-multiplexing of applications to dedicated servers One application workload per server group Low utilization due to peak-to-average and growth provisioning Batch workload may stress I/O capabilities Separate servers for production, failover, development/test, disaster recovery Processing comparisons Language expansion (CICS/COBOL path lengths are highly optimized) Conversion factor (MIPS to RPE) worsens as I/O rates increase Oracle RAC inefficiencies compared to DB2 This affects Total Cost of Ownership Also 3 to 5 year lifetime for distributed servers requires repurchase And dual environments during migration zenterprise Economics April

26 Why Do People Think Distributed Computing Is Cheaper? Inaccurate charge back! Charge Back Practices Were Improved Over Time at a Large Financial Institution More Accurate Charge Back Can Correct Perceptions of Relative Costs zenterprise Economics April
