3 IT is one of the major drivers for change and an important enabler to improve productivity, growth and profitability both in enterprises and in society as a whole IT trends promise more cloud to come As digitalisation of society advances, we are witnessing a radical change in consumer behaviour and needs. Consumers expect new and innovative services faster and with great user experience, available at any time on every device. Today, IT is one of the major drivers for change and is becoming an important enabler to improve productivity, growth and profitability both in enterprises and in society as a whole. According to several leading analyst companies, the worldwide IT services market is facing a major shift during the present decade. The big picture illustrates the market trends and major market shift in IT and outsourcing - moving from traditional offerings and legacy systems towards cloud-based services. The forecast shows that approximately 40 per cent of the IT services will be new, emerging types of cloud-based services and offerings. Share of New or emerging types of service by 2020 Share of Traditional offerings by 2020 Cloud offerings (as-a-service): Software-aaS Platform-aaS Data-aaS Infrastructure-aaS Complementing services: Implementation and consulting Integration and orchestration Product development Traditional standard offerings: IT consulting Systems integrations Outsourcing Tieto Corporation 3

4 This means there s a need to innovate future-driven services. Speed, flexibility and simplicity are the key features that will take cloud further. Consumerisation of IT is a reality, and it will set the scene for a new type of service approach - built on advanced but easy self-service. It s important to rethink and innovate to make complex issues easy to buy for the customers - and easy to utilise for the end users. So, they want it easy, they want it yesterday, and they want it nicely packaged. The future capacity services will be clearly driven by business needs and consumption-based. In addition to this, companies want to get the best out of ecosystems and seamless integration of legacy and public/private clouds. This universal trend is visible across all organizational levels, covering roles from IT management and project managers to business process owners and the boardroom Tieto Corporation 4

5 The old model is failing to meet the efficiency, agility, scalability and speed requirements of today s businesses. Challenging the oldschool capacity services Different types of cloud services have been available on the market for many years already. Market penetration has been growing steadily and cloud has taken share from legacy systems, but still the majority of the capacity action takes place in the traditional managed services delivery model. As business demands and requirements are changing, the old model is failing to meet the efficiency, agility, scalability and speed requirements of today s businesses. Adding value to business operations and processes requires an understanding of complex interdependencies between processes, applications and services. This means that the market craves innovative thinking that can effectively and successfully challenge the old-school capacity service problems. The pain points below are familiar to all capacity users: Pain points in old-school capacity services Ordering process = too complicated. If ordering processes for production or server testing have several steps and take up the majority of the IT manager s time, it ends up too focused on routines and can never be effective. Delivery = too slow. If the server order process takes two weeks - and encompasses a large amount of specifications, paperwork, uncertain delivery times and most likely serious delays - it simply cannot support the business targets. Integration = simply missing. If the new capacity cannot be integrated to the customer s existing networks, it will be nothing but a standalone capacity, most likely causing problems at some point that require separate actions, monitoring and plenty of IT management time. Scalability = simply non-existent. Care = simply missing. If there s nobody to assist when there s a technical problem, this will mean potential business losses when applied to businesscritical systems - and who is going to solve the capacity problem within the organization in this case? Management and billing = too costly. If managing the billing processes of capacity bought from several sources will require dedicated staff, it means unnecessary and hidden admin costs that will effectively reduce the overall IT development budget Tieto Corporation 5

6 Tieto as a capacity services innovator We re committed to making enterprise cloud simple for our customers. Tieto is the leading IT services company in northern Europe. With several decades of experience providing services supporting legacy systems, and a wide customer base representing most industries, the company has had a strong role as a service innovator in capacity-as-a-service and cloud overall. In 2012, the company launched its Tieto Cloud Server, as a result of a dedicated service development program to solve the pain points that customers were facing with capacity services. Tieto Cloud server now serves over 50 customers in the Nordics, delivering secure cloud capacity rapidly and easily from Nordic data centres, with care features and smooth integration with existing networks. Since it was introduced, Tieto Cloud Server has been developed continuously. One part of the offering, Tieto Cloud Server On-site, is a service created for organisations in need of a multi-site on-premise platform for critical systems with large amounts of data. Tieto Cloud Server Worldwide, on the other hand, was developed to serve the capacity needs of global customers in an agile and simple way, via data centres in Atlanta and Singapore. It is self-evident that customers today are looking for flexible, dynamic and cost-efficient infrastructure services, instead of having their own hardware or fixed-term capacity contracts that are similar to a lease. At the same time, customers require advanced security and business continuity features, allowing them to cope with the growing demand placed on their operations by rapid expansion rates, high investment levels, tight deadlines and the need for constant connectivity. As the development of Tieto Cloud Server has demonstrated, Tieto is a truly committed cloud provider, investing continuously in further evolving the capabilities and functionality of its products and services to meet the varied needs to its customers. We re committed to making enterprise cloud simple for our customers, through a combination of industry expertise, integration knowhow and an extensive portfolio of services. By taking advantage of our offerings, customers can bridge the gap between legacy IT systems and private and public cloud services via a hybrid model that s fast, secure and straightforward.

The billing period is one day, so it is possible to order capacity for just one day of usage. Customers may enter relevant codes for each delivery via the self-service portal to business services. This information can be handled in the integration layer, or directly in the ERP system, to be used in cost distribution Tieto Corporation 9
